On the future of #PHP http://url.federati.net/GEsdy (blog post from about a year ago; author's opinions may have changed) #HHVM #Zephyr #hack #facebook #zend

lnxw48 friendica , redmatrix , r7

@r7 I agree. Feature should be implemented (with appropriate caveats in documentation). Hopefully, I can assist, but my #PHP is way out of date, so it'll be a while.

That should end with a question mark, not a period. RP @lnxw48 @jezra @cyberkiller Isn't smarty a sort-of templating system that comes with #PHP?

@manuel @david I think #gnusocial would be better if unspecified assumptions were discovered and specified. One of the best ways to do that is for someone to reimplement it (not necessarily as part of the GS project, but sharing info with…

@dragnucs Definitely agree that it is far easier to find hosting for #PHP than anything else. For (almost) anything else, usually need at least a #VPS. @roland @zoowar

lnxw48 GNUSocial , zoowar , roland

@zoowar @roland I can see where a parallel rewrite (in #Python / #Django? #ruby / #RoR? #Java / #JSP? #JavaScript / #Node.JS?) could possibly benefit the project in the long run (ignoring deployment issues with all of the above platforms)…

@roland ISTM that most other projects are using PDO or ADODB classes for database access these days. #PHP

I find myself wondering whether people would be as repelled by #Savannah if the Python-based rewrite had been completed. I suppose, though I have no way of knowing, that they'd have made a more contemporary UI for it. #Python #PHP #code-hosting

@boneidol #Textpattern is a blogging engine and #CMS, written in #PHP. textpattern\.com

lnxw48 windigo , aqeel

@aqeel @windigo I just spent ten years doing #Windows desktop support, so even #PHP seem magical sometimes. "What? It did what I asked it to do? Where's the permissions dialog?"

lnxw48 gomerx , windigo

@windigo @gomerx I've been playing around a little with #Django and !Python, but I still usually wind up going with #ModX and #PHP because I'm more familiar with them.

lnxw48 speeddefrost

@speeddefrost "PHP is just a crap language. You don't embed HTML in program logic and expect the code to stay simple and clean. It's the most idiotic thing in the world and how it became popular is scary to even think about." True, embe…

lnxw48 Open Source Playground , daw , mattl

@daw You should ask @mattl directly what he considers "static" ... if he means #HTML that is not generated by #PHP, you'll need something other than standard #Wordpress posting tools.

lnxw48 mattl , daw

@daw Not sure what @mattl calls 'static', but most people mean a page that is not generated (e.g., by #PHP). As far as I know, all #WordPress pages are dynamically (re-)generated at display time unless something caches the PHP-generated pages.

lnxw48 mmn , roland

@roland Your webserver should be able to read anything it uploads, since it should automatically have user permissions. Exception: if you're using #FastCGI and running your #PHP daemon under a different user, you may need to fiddle with group memberships. CC: @mmn

lnxw48 gomerx

@gomerx I've been planning to explore #Symfony a little, but I should reacquaint myself with #PHP before I touch any frameworks. You forget a lot (and a lot changes) in eleven years.

lnxw48

The #PHP date.timezone thing angers every time I run into it. It is about the stupidest of PHP’s many flaws. (Not that #modx, #drupal, et al could not work around it if they were not lazy.)

lnxw48 lnxw48

Response to #PHP error message “It is not safe to rely on the system’s timezone settings” http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2213608/php-configuration-it-is-not-safe-to-rely-on-the-systems-timezone-settings

lnxw48

Given how many different php.ini files there are on many systems, requiring the editing of date.timezone is rather #stupid. Should silently use UTC unless otherwise configured. #PHP
