Some ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ star rating systems aren’t always exactly even stars. Say you want to support rating something 2.25 stars. To do that you could “fill” the shape of the stars partially. I like this idea by Samuel Kraft. The tricky …

Latest PECL Releases:swoole 4.2.11+ Support Timer in manager processes Added DNS cache to improve the connection speed of external network services, default TTL60s, capacity 1000 (#2250) When swoole_strerror the second param is 9, it will convert the swoole-specific error code into the text Fixed the problem that the connection timeout does not take effect after the client triggers the DNS query.

The Exakat service has posted their latest "PHP Index of Coding" for August 2018. In this index, they share statistics from the projects the service has analyzed and some trends based on the results. Every month, Exakat runs thousands of analysis on half a million lines of PHP code. This is primarily for testing purpose, a kind of torture test that checks the engine run on any kind of code. And it is very useful to ensure all situations are correctly handled. We also extracted the following stats out of 1700+ projects, analysis by analysis. This way, any issue may be ranked from 'wide spread' to 'very unusual'. In fact, 'wide spread' may also be understood as : 'almost a feature'. May be we can suggest a few of them to wiki.php.net. They include both the latest results and how they compare from the previous entries from May 2018. Analysis points include things like: Used Once Variables (In Scope) PHP Keywords As Names Property Used In One Method Only Unitialized Properties Should Make Ternary Use Named Boolean In Argument Definition Assigned Twice Locally Unused Property ...and many more. Some of the changes from May are pretty dramatic but others have stayed about the same. Check out the full post for the overview and links to more information about each of the checks.

Latest PECL Releases:datadog_trace 0.60.0 Breaking change: Users that are not explicitly setting or using json encoding are not impacted but this breaking change. Users either requiring json encoding for special purposes to send traces to their own custom targets or relying on the Stream class (that was not part of the public api in src/api) will have to manually clone the classes from the previous release SHA and register themselves. This is discouraged because as of today, json causes a fallback to blocking sync transmission to the Datadog agent, while using messagepack we support the unblocking async transport to our agent. Added Zend Abstract Interface: Method call seam (PHP 5) #1186 ZAI Sandbox #1213 Auto-flushing (PHP 5) #1189 Nette integration (v2 and v3) #504 #1220 (thanks @kozaktomas for the original contribution and thanks @Anilm3 for reviving the original PR) Begin documenting architecture #1225 Detect ZAI ZMM leaks #1229 ZAI function-call seam (PHP 8) #1234 Changed Update Docker ci docs #1202 Remove Json encoder and Stream transport #1235 Move from uint63 to uint64 for trace_id span_id and parent_id #1237 Remove redundant dd_trace_tracer_is_limited() calls #1239 Change config.m4 to allow in-tree build #1238 Eliminate "innerhook" from trace_method and trace_function #1240 Remove TSRMLS_* macros from PHP 7 and PHP 8 #1241 Deferred loading with ZAI function-call seam (PHP 8) #1243 Speed up randomized testing using a post #1192 version #1245 Self update composer in the image we use to prepare the code in CI (#1221) Fixed Fix meta header name for language version in BGS agent request #1244 Fix flaky PCNTL tests (#1232)

On my daily deep dives into the web of webs, it’s natural that I come across countless corals, sea creatures, particles, and everything else that dwells down there. I thought you might be interested in what I keep in my virtual trawl. As I’m a selective fisherman, the bycatch is rather small. These design assistants fell into my trap. Tools for Design and Development: More Chaff Than Wheat Separating the chaff from the wheat is becoming increasingly more challenging. At least, that’s how I feel after all these years with Noupe and my other endeavors. Maybe I’m just growing old. But don’t you also feel like the amount of tools is always growing and the time periods between them evolving become shorter? You might be able to keep an overview, but separating the useful from the useless, or, at least, the interesting from the boring is becoming more difficult. In my opinion, the following five, rather fresh, contributions from the sea of the design and development branch are worth mentioning: StickyStack.js: OnePager as a Card Stack StickyStack by Mike Zarandona is a jQuery plugin that helps you make your website seem like a slideshow.
