Ok, but looking at that same bug tracker there are only a handful of memory leaks in PHP core (i.e. not related to an extension), the most serious of which is being actively worked on: https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=76982

I've used PHP in a realtime setting as part of Psalm's Language Server, but it's clearly not built for such workloads – the lack of native async support gets in the way. If most of the stuff you're doing requires an even

There's been one big change in the last 5 years – the adoption of type-inferring PHP static analysis tools in CI. As companies started adopting TypeScript/Flow into their Javascript pipeline, PHP developers realised the need for s

Yeah, and one shouldn't ignore the economic and environmental drawbacks of milk – in the US, at least, the government subsidises milk production heavily so it's profitable for the farmers. And dairy milk is terrible for the envi

If I wrote a long memo about how there are too many immigrants in America, and afterwards accepted an interview request from VDare, people would be right to wonder whether my private views were a little more racist than the memo let on.

Not really. Right after the (somewhat-carefully-worded) memo was punished, the author showed his hand by appearing as a guest on the YouTube show of Stefan Molyneux who, even then, was well-known for his white nationalism and "men&#x27

Can someone explain why the types cannot live in Ruby code itself (after an appropriate version bump)? Python 3 incorporated types into the language itself, in a similar way (though non-reified) to PHP. This seems much easier to deal with t

Psalm has levels – higher levels show fewer warnings (just like in PHPStan). Maybe the `@psalm-ignore-nullable-return` annotation is more appropriate for those methods? Do you use the Doctrine plugin?
