I have not used X for ages. They apparently put my account into shadows 😅 With my recent couple of tweets (Xeets?), I have *now* unlocked more abilities 🧐

I just watched the recording of "What's New in PHP 8.3" by one of our PHP Knights - Mr @derickr It was insightful - always appreciate listening to him. He is a smart, no nonsense person. Thank you for all you do for PHP, Sir! 🐘 Watch the prez here: youtu.be/3U0DGhzSH2U?si=AenW…

Today I managed to attend The PHP Pod livestream - hosted by @shocm of @phparch Look forward to be present more often 🫡🚀💙🐘 PS: Yes, it was 2AM at my place 😅

At least once a year, I dream of me being among my PHP homies at a conference. It happened again on Sat. I was on stage and having conversation with my homies - @CalEvans @DragonBe @skoop @dr4goonis @dragonmantank @shocm @krakjoe @mgkimsal @PierreJoye @e3BethT (char limit :( )

This, the last Sunday of 2023! Time flied at an unprecedented speed for many of us including myself, with various colors. I stand on the cusp of 2024 brimming with optimism and an unshakeable resolve! Let 2024 be a journey of exploration and growth together. The 7PHP interviews will not just be conversations, but bridges connecting ideas, experiences and aspirations. We'll dive deeper, reaching the heart of what makes our community pulse with creativity and innovation. After all, isn't life a bit more PHPenomenal when we inject some fun into it? Let's illuminate the diverse, dynamic world of PHP in ways that resonate with everyone - celebrating every triumph, navigate every challenge & turn every stumble into a step forward. Together, let's make 2024 a year of PHPabulous achievements. Let's code not just with our minds, but with our hearts. So here's to a new PHPenomenal beginning. Let's fill 2024 with moments of brilliance & PHPappiness. With determination and joy, Yours PHP fanboi, 7PHP PS: Let's ROCK 2024!

I really don't know how the last 3 months swept by me. It's already December. And I'm late to publish my podcast. Apologise to my interviewees. We'll get this started asap.

🎙️Just had an invigorating podcast chat with @shochdoerfer (Stephan Hochdörfer) co-founder of @BitExpert. 20 yrs in #PHP & he's still as passionate & resilient! His dual role as tech expert & community leader is inspiring. Stay tuned for the release 🐘🌟 #Podcast #Leadership

Composer 2.6 is now available! It comes with many small improvements and fixes across the board. Thanks to all contributors and to @packagist customers for allowing me to keep spending time working on this! github.com/composer/composer… #composerphp #phpc

Makes me picture @grmpyprogrammer with his Grumpy look saying this, aye!

Came across a highly-viewed YT video with a title: “Thanks to framework xyz, PHP is now better than ever!” Curious if this approach effectively promotes PHP as a language or is only a bias towards xyz. No offense to xyz, but let’s foster a fair evaluation of PHP’s growth. 🐘

I barely made it through the weekend. But hey, the week is starting well! Tonight, I had an awesome time chatting w/ a long standing PHP professional, founder of PHP Agency @ingewikkeldnet & one of the OG of the PHP Community: - @skoop Can't wait to share recording soon! Aye!

I’ll go: @7php Sara Golemon (She’s not even around to see that I spelled her name right) :) @andigutmans @zeevs @WesFurlong @derickr Sebastian Bergman If’ I’ve not said so lately, thank you to each of you for helping me along in my career. :)

I start! 7 PHP Community OGs (in no particular order) * @dragonmantank * @grmpyprogrammer * @dragonbe * @Skoop * Ben Ramsey * @calevans * Beth Tucker Long @e3betht Over to you! Pass on the chain! #PHPFamily
