Large equivalence chart between languages.

(Dumping GitHub watches into Pinboard.)

PHP-style XML library for Python.

This, plus /usr/share/ganglia-webfrontend/graph.d/sample_report.php seem to be the best documentation for how to create fancier graphs in Ganglia.

"What we've done here is made security the default."

As I read through the documentation, I realized I've built this templating engine before, sans the nice syntax they hacked into PHP. The bonus is that they fixed PHP's syntax to allow array("things", "stuff")[1].

Ruby and Facebook's HipHop PHP both use this regular expression library, rumored to be based on the Thompson NFA (http://swtch.com/~rsc/regexp/regexp1.html).

In light of Facebook's new PHP-to-C++ compiler, remember some of their older work on APC.

Reckless speculation from last night that turned out to be horribly wrong. Actually, I like my fictional version better.

Facebook's rumored PHP improvements are not at all what I expected. Rather than going the JIT route via LLVM like the Unladen Swallow project, they've implemented a C++ code generator and are using g++. Favoring static binding is a huge win here, both for type information and function pointers. At least there's a proper interpreter to fix the development workflow they broke by wedging a manual compile step into the mix.

Short packaging toolchain for PHP hosted on GitHub

Seems to be the best PHP AMQP library right now.

ext/filter landed in 5.2 and I didn't even notice. Seems like you still have to hold Unicode's hand all the way through to PHP6. filter_input won't play nicely with anything that pre-processes $_POST and friends.

No more X forwarding for this Mac user.

Incomplete - missing specifics for TCT and maybe some of the range querying functions.

Could be better than quick stints of XDebug in production.

Really old patch to add libc's multicast goodies to PHP.

GIt pre-commit hook for running `php -l` so I don't have to write it myself.

I hear there's a way to do asynchronous MySQL queries in here. Must have a look.

Kind of awesome how you don't have to include files with this thing. Instead you just fill in holes left in a parent template.

Overkill until you need it. Still lacks polish.

Please to close my lambda.

Debug data in the headers coupled with a nice way to view them.

David's favorite database wrapper

Could be better than Thrift for pushing data maybe?

Roll your own.

Who knew you could use PHP like a real programming language?

Stoopid simple

This extension seems to be the simplest to grok. Maybe I'll do something useful soon?

What I need to finish the Asian Uploadrs

This is how to pass member functions to dynamic calling interface
