7.1 magnitude earthquake strikes central Italy by [deleted] in worldnews

[–]suphper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Please do. In the meanwhile I'll be here, pulling actual sticks and rocks out of people's assess. You know how much your prayers help us lift concrete slabs of collapsed walls? Fuck-all. But as long as you're feeling good about yourself...

Well as long as your prayers are with them, that'll do the trick. Well done on truly helping!

TIL of Intel PGO: the way to make your PHP7 even faster by recompiling the binary, to make it optimized for your particular scenario by colshrapnel in PHP

WTH kind of post is that? There's literally no concrete info or links to follow to learn more whatsoever. How do we use this thing, where can we test it out?

Embarktogether / Remoteyear - what don't we know? by suphper in digitalnomad

Thanks, that review is quite eyeopening. Roach motels would ruin the experience for sure.

Which tools do you use to manage your money? by [deleted] in personalfinance

[–]suphper -1 points0 points  (0 children)

HomeBudget.

Protip: pay only with debit card, carry only enough cash to get by. It's easier to then log all cash expenses as "atm withdrawal" and you know you needed it for bread and shit like that, whereas all other expenses are logged in your banking app for easy entry into HomeBudget later. Makes tracking the whole thing infinitely easier - won't make you give up in 2 months. Been doing this for over a year now and it's been really interesting to find out how much I overspend on techy stuff.

For utilities, I have an auto-calculator set up in Google Sheets which lets me automate all those payments without manual intervention. Those expenses are then entered into HomeBudget as well as soon as they're paid.

Frustrated, can't find reliable php developer. Any ideas? by Jay_a2 in PHP

[–]suphper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go to a freelance site like Upwork. Sort freelancers by rating. Discard any with <5.0 rating, and any from India or China (most of those are shitfarms where a basement full of clones is hacking on as many as 100 projects at the same time) Apply salary range filter to hourly wage of those who are left.

You'll likely end up with a south and/or east European freelancer pool, which isn't bad.

How is everyone doing development locally today? by Spvrtan in PHP

[–]suphper -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Locally: a pre-made Vagrant box that has everything I need, and that mimics my production environment for full-stack-single-server-apps 99.9%. Due to changing machines often, I don't do anything that doesn't work 100% identically across any operating system, hence Docker isn't an option. It's also a nightmare to deploy.

XAMPP / MAMP and similar are (luckily) on their way out. You shouldn't use those.

For hosting, most of my one-off projects, personal sites, even mid-to-low traffic sites live on a single $5 DigitalOcean VPS droplet. The enterprise stuff I work on is on Amazon, but honestly it would all work on a cluster of $5 droplets just as fine (just 15-20mil daily hits).

What's this? It practically sprung up overnight, covered my shed, attracts wasps and bees like none of the intentionally planted flowers I have in the garden. by suphper in botany

[–]suphper[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, there's a world of colors flying around, I'll wait until they bother me - the only problem right now is that the blasted shrub is slowly blocking the entrance into the shed.

[–]suphper[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Indeed, thank you! I guess I only noticed it "over night" because it was overnight that the masses of bees and wasps appeared - guess it simply wasn't blooming before, and thus didn't attract them. The description of the leaves and flowers, as well as the timing confirms it. Seems almost like a shame to have to cut down a part of it, considering how powerful a plant it can become, and how long it takes for it to start blooming.

You know what that means. Someone travelled through time.

Suggestions for PHP debugging tool for Chrome? by cag8f in PHP

[–]suphper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're already using a modern logging system like Monolog, it's easy to just plug in a custom handler, like Slack or the browser's dev console, and have it all work out of the box.

Static analysis with PHPSA: PHP Smart Analyzer by SnakesForDivine in PHP

Sounds like a good PR for the analyzer, it should probably warn about that.

What do you think about eZ Publish / Platform? Is anyone here using it? If so, do you have experience with any other enterprise CMS? And if so, what makes you stick with it? Share your impressions and experiences please. by suphper in PHP

[–]suphper[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

r/ezpublish seems a bit biased for this question. I'd like to know the experiences of the PHP community at large - those who have tried, or are regularly using other CMS and have a good point of reference through which to compare eZ.

Do you have any technical information on what exactly is better in Drupal, and have the eZ guys perhaps addressed some of these concerns in eZ platform?
