#Dinner Club Markdown

Making practical and effective use of SRP, the Dinner Club program consists of 3 different files; checksplitter.rb, dinnerclub.rb, and app.rb. CheckSplitter and DinnerClub are two different classes with different functions; carefully laid out to handle a single responsibility amongst themselves and return values to the method. The last file app.rb handles the interaction between the program and user. ##Great, so what does the program do? Programs do things - getting there is a long road but the outcome is sometimes simple to explain. This program, Dinner Club, outputs a few things: the amount each member of Dinner Club has paid, where they went, and who went on the outing. The program looks like this when you run it:

Who is in the dinner club? (Comma-separated)
Sam, James, Amy
Okay, great. Go out to eat?

Add these two lines to .bashrc:

a simple git branching model (written in 2013)

This is a very simple git workflow. It (and variants) is in use by many people. I settled on it after using it very effectively at Athena. GitHub does something similar; Zach Holman mentioned it in this talk.

Update: Woah, thanks for all the attention. Didn't expect this simple rant to get popular.

DI containers usage comparison

DI containers are sorted alphabetically.

In order to get a bit of "hard data" on what accessors will actually be used for once they are introduced I wrote a small script that scans through a codebase, finds all getter and setter methods and checks them for various characteristics. (The analyze.php file in this Gist.)

Here are the results of running it on a Symfony (Standard) skeleton.

absoluteTotal        => 18516 (486.6%)
total                =>  3805 (100.0%)
skipped              =>   124 (  3.3%)

	Hey,

	On Twitter, my friend Cal Evans pointed this photo out:

	I do not know the intent of the shirt, but many have read it as a pun on "penis," as in "enhance your P H Pness."

	This kind of thing really disappoints me as a member of the PHP and open source community. Many of us are working hard to address the extremely skewed gender numbers in open source, and this kind of thing -- intentional or not -- sends a "PHP is a guys-only club" message. That makes me actively much less interested in Web and PHP, and products or services provided by related companies.

	$pieces = array();
	foreach($rm->getParameters() as $params ) {
