Read the story around the security vulnerabilities fixed in PHP today that I wrote up for the PHP Foundation, what an exhausting last week in this process. Glad it's out, hoping you all update ASAP.

We have posted more information about today's security releases, including the sequence of events that led to the discovery, how the PHP security team is improving their processes, and what we need from you to continue this critical work. #php #security thephp.foundation/blog/2026/…

I am a very tolerant person, I believe people should be free to live their lives however they want, but you have to draw a line somewhere! Salt pickles 🥒 Accidentally bought a jar the other day and only realized when I took a bite. Absolutely fucking vile.

AI slop has fundamentally changed how I experience reading. I now notice the tells everywhere. The short, punchy sentences. The relentless groups of three. The em dashes—the unnecessary little asides. And once you see it, you can’t unsee it. The worst part? My brain now flags perfectly innocent human writing as AI slop too. AI hasn’t just made me enjoy bad writing less. It’s made me suspicious of all writing. That’s a real loss.

3,5 Millionen Kunden hat Lottoland in Deutschland. Viele denken, sie würden dort tatsächlich Lotto spielen. Allerdings nehmen sie an illegalem Glücksspiel teil. Uns als Gesellschaft entgingen dadurch 2019-2023 mutmaßlich über 400 Millionen Euro Steuern. lilithwittmann.medium.com/wi…

Happy 14th, @ReactPHP! 🎂 Fourteen years of event-driven, non-blocking I/O that just works. Mature, rock-solid, and downloaded more than ever with 1.3B+ downloads. Here's to the next chapter of async PHP! 🚀 #async #PHP
