PHP[tek] 2026 starts tomorrow in Chicago, and I won't be there.
Not because the schedule doesn't look interesting. A few talks would have caught my attention: event-driven architecture for resilient PHP apps, advanced SQL features most of us quietly ignore, semantic search and embeddings, or the NativePHP track. Even the advanced PHPUnit session sounds like the kind of deep dive I rarely make time for.
But flying thousands of kilometers for a three-day conference just doesn't fit with how I try to live. That's my call, not a criticism of anyone making the trip. Enjoy Chicago, enjoy the talks, enjoy the hallway conversations that often end up being the best part anyway... and share on the Fediverse ^^
AI-помощник для технической поддержки: новый этап в TG Support Bot 7.1.0
Всем привет! Я продолжаю развивать TG Support Bot как open-source решение для поддержки клиентов в мессенджерах и в этом релизе хочу поделиться обновлением 7.1.0. В этом релизе мы сфокусировались на снижении нагрузки на команды и добавили AI-помощника, который теперь работает сразу на трёх платформах, лучше учитывает контекст диалогов и может либо готовить черновики ответов для менеджера, либо отвечать клиенту напрямую — в зависимости от режима. Это заметное обновление, которое расширяет возможности проекта и делает его удобнее для реальных сценариев поддержки.

I have spent a silly amount of time today trying to get the SpatiaLite extension loaded for PDO in #PHP
This *would* have been a lot eaiser if I was on newer versions than Laravel 10 and PHP 8.3 😅
Danack authored the RFC for PDO driver specific sub-classes in 2022 which released in PHP 8.4 and provided a `loadExtension` method on the SQLite PDO sub-class.
#Laravel is aware of these from version 11...
Added default security configuration to ~340 `composer.json` files in 22 organizations.
Automated via GhostCI ;)
