Imagine how fast problems would be identified with that many rubber ducks for an engineer to talk to.

Imagine, if you will, a whole open plan office full of them...

I was ready to have a rant about PHP. Well played.

It doesn’t matter what’s posted here, I’m always ready to rage about PHP. The community’s image always gets me.

Tomorrow you're going to be inheriting our in-house framework that uses legacy code from before PHP 7.0 with zero documentation and no dependency management.

You just described my previous job 😞😭😞

[-] einkorn@feddit.org 1 points 2 days ago

Sounds good to me.

Had another job where my task was to maintain Perl scripts from the 90s. The company was crap, though, so I only stayed for half a year.

Maintaining perl scripts from the 90s is my ball park!

Mind, I did write some of them, and they're still whirring away making it a pretty easy job. Perl's lack of breaking features is its strongest strength.

I have a Laravel app I've been maintaining for about ten years that will make you hate PHP as well.

[-] einkorn@feddit.org 5 points 2 days ago

Bold of you to assume I don't hate PHP already.

[-] JoYo@lemmy.ml 18 points 3 days ago

It's duct typing.

[-] Metostopholes@midwest.social 14 points 3 days ago

I also have a Ducky keyboard.

Too cute. I typically don't like squishy keys, but I'd make an exception here.

*Didn't hear the audio at first. That...is a bit too much, lol.

Big brain moment: escape.

[-] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 4 points 3 days ago

This is the future.

[-] Commiunism@beehaw.org 2 points 2 days ago

Ducky keyboards if they were actually good
