I have documented my experience using an Agent for a slightly different task -- upgrading framework version -- I had to abandon the work, but, my learning has been similar what is in the post.

Debug builds are big. Production releases of Apps are very small - one of my Flutter Apps 7.6 MB.

Laravel encourages DI via Service Containers: https://laravel.com/docs/5.5/container And, Laravel static methods (as you see in the docs as Facades) are not truly static (and testable/mockable). https://laravel.com/docs/5.5/facades#facades-vs-dependency-i... http://usman.it/laravel-4-uses-static-not-true/

I created a bookmarklet many years ago that does this and a little bit more: https://github.com/cosmok/HackerNews_Sorter

I was able to reproduce this on a Galaxy Nexus.

Great points! But, it can get pretty lonely to have your lunch alone - sometimes even depressing. I tend to have lunch with 1 or 2 of the closest of workmates whenever I can.

It is almost impractical for me to be like Stallman and shun a lot of Hardware/Software. But, I do not wish for Stallman to be any less radical than he is as: by being radical he gains my attention and some of his thoughts and ideas stick with me and, it has made me think about 'freedom' while buying any piece of Hardware/Software.

I would never want to work him on anything - I watched him tear apart people while responding to their concerns - but, people like him are essential to the Free Software movement.

Very easy in PHP. http://php.net/manual/en/pdo.prepared-statements.php

I have forced myself to stop checking mail, facebook, time, etc. on my mobile after I have decided to rest. I have slept better since then.

Not according to the guidelines:

    "Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or        sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic."

But, I don't mind it all as I get to read views and firsthand accounts from fellow hackers that is much different from what I see on TV.

Good example!

Things like "stat cache" and "memory leaks" are what I watch out for when I write command line scripts in PHP. Also, I do not run my scripts as a daemon and I make sure that they do not run for more than a set maximum execution time.

So yeah, it may not be the most perfect choice but, it beats : having to learn another language when I know what to look out for when I write a command line script in PHP.

I have been writing command line scripts in PHP for the most part of the past 18 months.

I will have to agree with you that PHP is perceived as a web language. Hopefully with more articles like these that perception will change.

Stupid was a bit too strong, but, I stand by what I said based on my experience. Articles like these exist partly because of the belief that PHP programmers in general are not competent. You do not hear such frequent rumbling on Python and it's practitioners. One could apply the same O(N)and O(k>>N) logic there as IMO, Python is not harder to learn/program in compared with PHP.

I use PHP at work for creating not only web applications but, also to do a lot of non-user facing backend stuff. It's great to know that someone out there is using PHP at a much bigger scale for backend stuff.I hope he shares more technical details. If you don't like PHP, fine, but, don't think all PHP programmers are stupid.

I once had a Python programmer looking at the kind of stuff that I was doing with PHP and he was surprised that such things could be done in PHP.

This is an actual conversation that I had in a meetup:

Guy1: If PHP were to disappear, it would bring down a lot of the web with it, wouldn't it?

Guy2: Nah, but, that would be the case if Java or .net were to disappear.

Me: (to myself)Wtf!

Guy1: But, most of the links that I click on the web end with .php.

Guy2: um.....

Me: (to myself)pwn3d!

I love ihackernews! The integration with ViewText makes it a perfect choice to read HN stories on my phone. Thanks and Great Job!

+1 for LustyExplorer. Use that every day at work and at home.

Yep, the search API is far better than what Google is offering.

My favorite would be LustyExplorer: http://github.com/sjbach/lusty . Why? Among all the different file browser plugins, I found Lusty to be the most easiest to use while being intuitive.

Wow! I saw some actual code/command that I could use at work. Like PHP itself, his talk was very practical. Thanks for the link!

I wrote about how I ran into his complaint #1 here:http://www.trk7.com/blog/programming/innodb-mysql-implicit-a... . MySQL is quite annoying but, it seems to do the job for most of the projects that I have worked on.

Great read! I wish PG starts writing essays that are both short(emphasis on short) and interesting to read as this one.

Welcome to the world of web development! You are going to be recreating a lot of stuff (especially if you are going to be working for a corporation). I have a little experience with using djano but, I do most of my work in PHP. I have started to like Zend Framework(ZF) and I would recommend that to you as you already know PHP (instead of learning django, ror, etc.). ZF should speed up your development a bit. These days, I mostly prefer doing Sys Admin stuff and playing with Javascript and I shudder at creating a web app from scratch. When I am not working for money, I do not force myself to create a web app. But, when I do start working on something I tend to work extremely hard.

sounds like a useful feature, will try to add it.

I know it can be frustrating to have a software not work as expected but, I don't think Ubuntu is doing too bad in this respect (I have been using Kubuntu @ work and Fedora at home for the past 2-3 years). The author IMO is a bit too harsh on Ubuntu. On a somewhat related note, I think people should also read this while passing judgement on another OSS (esp bug fixes): http://ryanbigg.com/2010/04/want-it-give/ http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1255905

I would also recommend the Vim Tutorial Videos here: http://www.derekwyatt.org/vim/vim-tutorial-videos/
