xdebug is pretty okay. PHP is single threaded, the entry point well defined, var_dump/die/echo works wonders, debugable by curl and simple php -S nowadays.

it has orders of magnitude less complexity than the JVM, or even the various Python server runtimes (gunicorn, uwsgi, etc)

at least in my experience. can you elaborate on what you see as the debug support deficiencies of PHP?

IANAL but that's why law has to be interpreted by judges rather than being a book of absolute rules.

Lots of codified laws are bent or modified by prevailing social attitudes, customs or precedent, so you could argue "I looked at it a couple of years ago and then independently decided to implement something similar" is a very different situation to "we read through the code and a week later started on a competitor".

Whether you'd get away with it is another matter, depending upon interpretation and perspective.

> the exact same syntax in Python

No, because the example is showing concatenation of associative arrays. In Python, you'd use a dict, and you can't do `validated + {'status': 'pending'}`:

```
>>> validated = {}
>>> validated + {'status': 'pending'}
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: unsupported operand type(s) for +: 'dict' and 'dict'
```

You can do `validated | {'status': 'pending'}` since 3.9, though. I think using union or the * operator (e.g. `{*validated, 'status': 'pending'}`) looks less weird, but if you're a PHP programmer, you already know what + does here. In the end, it becomes bikeshedding.

Not sure what exactly you refer to with "debugging", but I'm personally much happier with XDebug in VSCode, spamming my breakpoints and stepping through the code inside of the editor where I edit the code.

I can set breakpoints in my react app too, but it feels weird to inspect code in the browser console. And since modern frameworks get compiled for the browser, it is all even less familiar at a glance.
It's bad enough that the kernel includes a JIT for eBPF. Adding more of them without hardware constraints and/or formal verification seems like a bad idea to me.
It's a bit of a strange thing to say. At what level? Apple doesn't support lots of formats, neither does Microsoft, people can build tools in their apps to support them, and publish them, and hence new formats are born, that, although may have been created on a platform, the owner of that platform does not 'support' them.

As this is an open format, you can, or very likely, someone else, will write something to parse it on an apple platform, will Apple support it then?
Based on the amount of salesmanship happening in the readme, I think its sfe to say the author knows this already :P
the article could explore a bit more the importance of voice for subjectivity and identity. I would say that with the emergence of the 'idol' culture, the voice also took center stage. the voice is one of the fundamental elements of the structure of subjectivity, it is what marks the individual character. Of course one can admire a player playing an instrument, but then we are admiring their skill and not them. I see material for a more serious investigation in the interconnection between idolatry of musicians and the role of voice in subjectivity. It's a shame they didn't pick it up

Is it just the implementation of zfs which is owned by oracle now? I wonder how hard it would be to write a compatible clean room reimplementation of zfs in rust or something, from the spec.

Even if it doesn’t implement every feature from the real zfs, it would still be handy for OS compatibility reasons.

Socrates’ main argument is that the word itself cannot teach but that it takes two parties which are often a student and a text instead of a student and a teacher. If Socrates sat down and explained to a student, he could impart not only the written word but other examples from their own lives. But the word can be uprooted from its context and read by many who will learn just the word instead of the meaning of the whole of it. There’s even a whole class of philosophy who argues _inside_ the definition of words.

Google is just the middle man here, creators can turn off ads on videos if they want to but a lot of them need revenue or at least want revenue so the question becomes what's the best way to reward creators for their work? There are multiple models that I can think of but there will be much less people on yt if it would cost even a few cents. Once you're used to free stuff, even with bloated content as now it takes a while to get used to paying. The current model works because 3rd parties pay and not the actual consumer.

I'm curious how does yt share profit with creators for views from paying subscribers.
Three Months After Amazon: My Journey, Lessons, and a Scorecard
I've been on several networks that blocked all outgoing UDP traffic because "it's for file sharing and we don't allow that". It's just as easy to say UDP somehow gets special treatment in an environment where protocol parsing DPI is the norm. I've even used infuriating networks that explicitly sabotaged QUIC because their middlebox couldn't parse it, whereas standard TLS 1.3 worked just fine.

The problematic middleboxes are the ones that don't forward packets they can't parse. If they would correctly identified traffic as "TLS but too recent to parse" and let the packets flow through, we wouldn't have this problem. For that reason I strongly doubt that anywhere these boxes are employed UDP traffic somehow goes by unnoticed, because there's layer 3 filtering going on wherever these boxes fail.
As the saying goes, it's the worst, except for all the others that have been tried.
I've been using PHP for about 19 years and what I can tell is that both the language and its community have evolved the right way. Writing modern PHP is a joy, IDE support is great and we have tools for everything.

Modern PHP is about community standards, not about any particular framework and exposing Laravel as the best way to get started with PHP is questionable. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone wanting to learn (real) PHP.

The article praises PHP but it is sad that doesn't link to any other resource or project which ditches the value of PHP community.

Laravel is great for RAD which is attractive for small projects. The kind of stuff "business with 500K orders runs on a $6 VPS" thing. For clients wanting a robust software system you can use a better tool.
As a regular joe that wants to store some TBs of data it does not matter to me whether the $/TB has been improving faster or slower. I just care that I can still read my data after X years and what the lower $/TB is.

Congrats on the launch! This is a great product idea.

I'd advise redesigning the way your website blocking works though. For myself—and I'd assume a lot of folks—the idea that a website has to be attached to an app doesn't make sense. I've already deleted the Twitter app for example, but would still like to block Twitter's website. Or there's Mastodon which has never been an app on my phone. The current flow around this is very confusing/broken. (Apple's built-in Screen Time app actually has a solution for this already, with "Websites…" as a category to block by, where you just enter the website of your choice.)

I'd also recommend working with a designer because the app feels sort of janky at the moment. It's not just the main flow, but the interface and copy everywhere feel haphazard and doesn't inspire a lot of confidence. The idea for the app is so simple, and I think the execution could be equally simple in a really satisfying way.

I signed up for the subscription, but had already cancelled by the next day because of these faults. With a few fixes I think this could be very successful.
I agree. Instance from today; I have a very novel task at work that nobody seems to know how to approach, I had a hunch that metaheuristics could play a role; I used ChatGPT to help me better formulate the problem and at least now there is a way to tackle the problem.

It made a few errors in at least presenting my ideas, but these errors were a consequence of my misunderstanding and lack of clarity.

The errors themselves, in my opinion, are invaluable because they force you to think, to be clear, and to guide the model into giving me useful ideas to look into.

For all intents and purposes, it was an example of the Socratic method, albeit inverted, where the student is asking questions to an all knowing teacher, and the teacher / LLM responds with ideas and hints. Ultimately, it's up to the student to synthesize the solution, be critical of the data, and tie everything together.
fwiw ... I'd love to see that if you still have a copy :)

If that was a metric for language quality, then Javascript would be undeniably the most perfect language ever designed by any intelligent species in the universe, judging by the number of frameworks.

And now I would like to hear a good reason why I should use an "almost decent language", when I can use a decent one instead.

> It can be used properly if you know what you are doing

It doesn't matter what I do, the language still insists of having multiple modes of error handling, a massive amount of builtins all of which sit in my global namespace, it's configuration is still seperated between compiler flags, a system wide ini, and local config. The base deployment mode is still "dump files into folder and let CGI do the rest".

The interesting tidbit here is that congresspeople, both leaders and small fry types, were parroting a line that went "if we don't pass this censorship law, the Supreme Court is going ahead and dropping an even bigger hammer".

The Supreme Court kneecapped Lula in the late 00s and early 10s, arrested his lead cadres and led to his party's decay -- until Lula himself was arrested. They did this by importing theories by German theorists that were never part of our law intellectual traditions, let alone our laws. Then in the late 10s they started arresting bloggers for insulting the Court -- directly, taking on police powers. Now they're with Lula, and further expanding their sweeping powers. I'm scared to even post this. I mean, much of Congress is scared -- they've got people there by the balls.

Getting a second mortgage is a big hassle and cost, especially if you don't have an income. You can get an asset backed mortgage but those are less common and can have higher rates.

A HELOC is certainly easier but there's no guarantee you will get approved, plus rates will likely be higher than whatever you're paying now.

My point is that getting credit is not guaranteed, and that having liquid assets has significant value. If you are not working I especially recommend prioritizing cash.
