It’s in many ways also “done”, in that it pretty much does what it says on the cover. I had to tweak a tiny few things to host it on DigitalOcean App Platform, and plan to do some development where needed as I start hosting an instance.

As I’m about to write a technical book (my first was pretty bad, but sold reasonably well), I found “Write useful books” by Rob Fitzpatrick which approaches writing a “useful” book (i.e., something that really teaches you something) as pr

Autistic here as well, tremendous burnout and trauma from my last job. It took me a lot of writing / reconnecting with why I love technology in the first place, and a 3 months sabbatical at the recurse center to… feel like I’m back. A

That would indeed be the ideal, but I know enough people for whom statements like these have a real impact, me included. As you pointed out, they are ignorant and insecure, and IMO stifle actual technical discourse. Their only purpose is fo

Fair put, I’ll sleep on it. Also, hopefully you won’t consider this kissing your boots, but I genuinely appreciate what must be the tremendous amount of effort you put into this site. I have gained so much from this site, and the ruthless c

I’m the author actually :) I certainly don’t identify as a PHP developer, but it’s the one language I use relatively often that gets an intense amount of condescending hate in the US. I also was referring to users of a language more so than

I certainly agree with that, but that level of detachment and comfort with technology comes with time. When you start out, programming is your tool, until you grow and discover new tools, usually through the help of other people. Certainly

I think you are expressing what I am saying too. It’s not about not criticizing technology, it’s about doing so in a productive and inclusive way. Even as a seasoned developer, getting blasted as worthy of prosecution for criminal negligenc

Many things are replaced by better iterations, but plenty of large frameworks are still around. I was thinking of tooling like npm, webpack, react, redux, heck even vim, emacs, linux. It’s easy to forget that linux was the target of the sam

I have plenty of criticism of PHP, and I address the fact that valid criticism is essential in the third section. Blindly saying that PHP is a hot mess, in a public setting, is detrimental to I think the community at large. PHP is but one o

It is also missing that there are many valuable things to be learnt from a technology that is that successful. This doesn’t happen by accident, and also shows that technical elegance is but a small part of being a successful engineer. But r

My point is that calling PHP an awful mess, besides being unproductive and (IMO) not true, is that from their perspective, it is putting them down. Even from my perspective, after a long career writing in many languages, PHP is far from an

This is pretty much the point of the article. I have a few reasons to work in (not just learn) close languages. The languages might use roughly similar concepts and syntax and solve similar problems (think, C++, C#, PHP, Java, Go), yet thei
