Please guys if you haven't already, check the security advisory and take action: https://www.php.net/

Can confirm, it was chaos today between my company and my clients. Thanks for spreading the word Dave
> PHP is used by 70% of the web
> Frontier AI labs determine it as critical for this reason

A lot of people trash talk about PHP for its outdated versions and the security flaws that are found in them.
The hypocrisy lies in the fact that it's not as if ALL languages have these issues, and the evolution of languages is precisely about correcting, improving, and deploying…
everytime is something with PHP they all come out of a hole to say PHP sucks then you check the amount of vulnerabilities on any other technology and the volume is higher but no one cares....
I need to mess around with JPEG XL, I think. Look at what you can pull off in <200 bytes with the format: https://jpegxl.info/art/big_gallery.html (it's hardly Rembrandt, but still..)

i've been quite obsessed with JPEG XL recently, it's just really efficient
Almost two years ago, AI got you ~70% of the way there, and the last 30% was the hard part: addyo.substack.com/p/the-70-problem-hard-truths-about
At that time, I was thinking same. Now I'd say it's 95%+, and that's more than enough for me.

You should be good if you are using Laravel Cloud. But need to manually update Octane if you are using it.
haha the ..... gave it away. node shipped its own security release yesterday (22.23.4), my vps is patching a brotli RCE as we speak. no escape this week
PHP isn’t the most sexy language, I give you that. Where I live in Belgium, government, school, hospital, help line, media, news, and what not websites are down.
It’s not because we don’t often hear about it that it isn’t big. Usually, PHP simply does the job. Nothing sexy,…
Kind of glad the web is still as diverse as it is. Imagine if everything was built on just PHP, or any other stack for that matter. Having multiple languages and ecosystems is probably what keeps the web going, in a weird way? A split redundancy?
PHP is a solid 8/10 that will not ruin your life.
This incident is comparable to that one time your wife got really drunk at a wedding and embarrassed you a bit...
Typescript lover here, but can't deny the depth and breadth of PHP's reach. It's like the world is on fire right now, so wild haha
We are working on "spaces" for communities to gather and talk.
What about using GitHub orgs for that?
Here is a RFC for /dev/null please participate: https://github.com/nunomaduro/dev-null.sh/issues/938
GitHub[RFC] Orgs · Issue #938 · nunomaduro/dev-null.shWe're considering adding GitHub orgs into /dev/null Why? Project news: orgs can post commits, users can follow projects Communities: orgs often represent dev communities, e.g. programming languages...
not a huge fan, I don't want to be in a github org to be part of a community.
