@CodingItWrong You can't really be a serious goat farmer these days without software. But I've heard you can be a tech influencer — and that won't change very fast, because despite years of trying, nobody managed to get tech influencers to correctly use as much as pocket calculator, without hurting themselves.

Don't use mocking libraries. #PHP
I really like what @Crell wrote here:

espcially like the Error marker suggestion that would be handled by ?? and ?->
can we hope an RFC for something like that and/or a #phpfig #PSR ?

This works just as well with friends, tbh

sexual abuse by clergy
I’m not going to repeat any of this story here. It’s intense and graphic. But I will say that it deals with where I grew up, and I know some of the names involved.
The web0 manifesto:
web3 = decentralization + blockchain + NFTs + metaverse
web0 = web3 - blockchain - NFTs - metaverse
web0 = decentralization
Much ado about null (and a more #PHP-friendly alternative to monads you can use today!)
Trump, Truth Social, and federation
There's a fake "truth social" instance that's federated, and it's confusing. The admin appears to post mostly news and info from India, but there are accounts on there that either think it's really Trump's social network, or they're fake accounts posting fake information.
One account posted info about how Biden is a Satan-worshipper.
I haven't blocked the whole instance from federating with phpc.social, but I have blocked it at my personal account level.
Mastodon has a verification mechanism, though it looks different from Twitter's. We do not ask for your documents. Instead, if you have a website that you are known by, you can verify that you are the owner of that website.
Link to your Mastodon profile from the website, either through a visible link, or through a <link> tag in the head of the document, with a rel=me attribute, and link back to that page from your Mastodon profile. It should then get a green checkmark, like @Mastodon.
Looks at this! The next Xdebug release (3.2) will have an extra "return from function" debugging step, in which you can inspect the return value.
It even works with fluent APIs!
But it does need some support in IDEs, as they need to enable the feature.
I'll be working with Jetbrains and Damjan Cvetko to get this into PhpStorm and the PHP Debug Adapter for Visual Studio Code.
Anything worth doing is worth doing well.
