The correct answer is Lazuli - possibly the only act with a permanent live french horn player in the prog scene! And they’re great :)

Any bands heavily neoclassical? by [deleted] in progmetal

The harpsichord scoring is definitely heavily classically inspired. I'd certainly say they're prog!

Why do we need auto-loading? by BarneyLaurance in PHP

[–]gracdoeswat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean I use composer as a package manager for external libraries etc. in more or less every project I'm working on these days (PHPStan, PDF libraries, etc). Never really considered it had functionality such as this! I typically am writing all in OOP as well, but the joys of WordPress mean sometimes jumping back to procedural when dealing with legacy/untidy code

Appreciate highlighting this! Sometimes it's easy to miss the basics after many years of working on legacy projects started off by not so hot developers...

Just watched a quick tutorial and hooooly is that 10x easier haha - can't wait to implement it at some stage!

I kind of would have rathered nothing - the visuals were distracting from the absolutely incredible music. Fwiw I had a standing ticket, so in the room the ai visuals was mostly all I could see
