Introduction

clue

Think about "PHP" for a few seconds… What came to mind? It’s very likely you thought about your average product catalog, a blogging platform or how the platform is inferior to things like Node.js. But wait, it’s 2018! What if I told you PHP’s huge ecosystem has way more to offer and PHP is not inferior at all to its evil cousin Node.js?

Hands-on workshop given at PHPYorkshire (2018-04-13)

Getting started with ReactPHP – Pushing real-time data to the browser

In this hands-on tutorial you will learn about the core concepts of async PHP and why you too should care about ReactPHP being a real thing. The workshop has a strong focus on sparking the idea that PHP can be way faster and more versatile than you probably thought. Bring along an open mind and through lots of interesting examples and live demos learn why what sounds crazy at first might soon be a valuable addition in your toolbox.

You’re already familiar with PHP and want to learn what ReactPHP is all about? Then this tutorial is for you! We will

Jekyll NavBar

In building a site powered by Jekyll and hosted by GitHub, I wanted the ability to highlight the current page's tab in the bar. I also wanted the bar to support second-level items (i.e. a dropdown), which proved somewhat tricky. This is the solution I arrived at after a few hours of fiddling around.

Construction

The contents of the navigation bar are contained in a data file located at _data/navigation.yml. This makes it accessible via the site-wide Liquid element {{ site.data.navigation}}. You can see the file for the formatting I used.

Order of evaluation in PHP

Yesterday I found some people on my [favorite reddit][lolphp] wonder about the output of the following code:

<?php

$a = 1;
$c = $a + $a++;

Hofstadter on Lisp

In the mid-80s, while reading through my roommate's collection of Scientific American back issues, I encountered this introduction to Lisp written by Douglas Hofstadter. I found it very charming at the time, and provide it here (somewhat illegally) for the edification of a new generation of Lispers.

In a testament to the timelessness of Lisp, you can still run all the examples below in emacs if you install these aliases:

(defalias 'plus #'+)
(defalias 'quotient #'/)
(defalias 'times #'*)
(defalias 'difference #'-)

function tailrec($func)
{
	$acc = array();
	$recursing = FALSE;
	$func = new ReflectionFunction($func);

	return function() use ($func, &$acc, &$recursing) {

		$acc[] = func_get_args();
