@nprofile…r40u Though usually the old timezone continues to exist. So not setting the old timezone for the location in the first place is actually the issue...
Example: If you are living in Büsingen and set your timezone to Europe/Berlin, you are already doing it wrong!
It get's worse when you live in for example Donetsk as in that area the timezone changed from Europe/Kyiv to Europe/Moskow without actually creating a new one...
It also shows: Timezones are representing observation... 😕

I am looking for a simple* userland IMAP library in PHP - no depencendy on ext-imap (for reasons!)
* as little dependencies as possible, slight abstraction of the protocol would be nice, PHP8.4 ready and... well... supported is a must!
Any pointers?
zetacomponents/Mail has a lot of non-IMAP stuff and is rather near at the protocol-level,
webklex/php-imap has a number of dependencies I'd rather not have as has directorytree/imapengine

All changes are breaking changes for someone.
Not embracing (breaking) changes as something that has to happen in an evolving universe requires the universe to no longer evolve but freeze at the current state.
Not wanting to break things starts from a false assumption.
Change is evolution. And indeed! Some changes are for the worse and will lead to a possible (near) extinction of tools.

Anyone here has any knowledge in pennsylvanian dutch (or any other of the german dialects in the US/America)?
I know that the pennsylvanian dutch is actually less dutch than more palatinate german. And I also know that most of the palatians that immigrated to america did so around the 1840s.
Here in the palatinate region there is a saying "Aller hop" meaning "Let's go" or "let's start".
My Question now is: Is that phrase also existent in "american german"?

I'd argue that some not unrelevant things are missing...
Like readonly allows you to write it once. Whereas private(set) allows you to write it many times. Which is only a small but perhaps not irrelevant difference 😁
And neither readonly nor private(set) are truly immutable.
you can still change a mutable object internally from the outside...
Does that make it less of a mess? Probably not 🙈

It is a bold assumption of a method that their return value matters in the wider scope of the application.

@nprofile…944s Yes! I know that RFC 3986 specifies that `Future specifications and related documentation should use the general term "URI" rather than the more restrictive terms "URL" and "URN"`
Also the API does not make sense for URNs.
There is no host, there is no user- or password-part....
So the whole RFC is only targeted at URLs.
But I'll look forward to the final implementation and will then fiddle around with it...

2025-07-25 08:55:40 UTC

- reply

@nprofile…944s WHATWG explicitly does not target URNs. They only target URLs.
Having them under the namespace URI provides false assumptions IMO.
And the whole RFC does mention URNs in the introduction as a subset of URIs but that is it! No further mention to extend the API to URNs later on, no examples, nothing!
And RFC3986 explicitly targets both, but no examples in the RFC. So I have to assume that they were just ... forgotten?

2025-07-25 08:42:38 UTC

- reply

What I really hate is that PHP introduces a new URI API that doesn't handle URIs....
In the RFC (https://wiki.php.net/rfc/url_parsing_api) they explicitly break up the naming and specify that URIs contain URLs and URNs
But the later content only speaks about URLs - Not a single example using a URN. All the content is about Locators.
WHATWG also explicitly speaks about URLs - yet they are in the URI namespace....
Ah well 🤷
Too late!
This is probably PHPs `referer`

So when AI-training is allowed to ignore licences and get the training material for free, then that surely means that every student worldwide also is not required to pay for any training material.

@nprofile…240e One thing I noticed: While yield is really awesome, it will still result in a huge array as the dataprovider is called *before* the test-execution and all values are stored in an array.

Yesterday was a public holiday and today... Well... The live-tracking is suddenly no longer working....
I fear the worst...
I ordered the stuff last saturday.
I should have just collected it 🙈

@nprofile…rsqr The interesting thing with aesthetics and email-lists and IRC is that it is up to you which tool you are using to interact with it.
With all SaaS solutions you have to use whatever someone else thinks is adequate.
So in terms of IRC and Email being "UI Disasters" - that's solely on you (the person complaining, not necessarily YOU) for not finding tools that suit your UI requirements.
Blaming that on the protocol is ... broken to say the least...

Debugging eventual consistency with an ORM that doesn't necessarily persist when someone invokes the "persist" method is ... fun....

@nprofile…l7u7 @nprofile…8fwd Why keep something working propperly when you can throw it away and get something shiny and new...
Also: Why build something maintainable when you can get to marked much faster by cutting corners and just not care about maintainability. It'll be thrown away in 2 years anyhow...

@nprofile…l7u7 AI will fix it!
Alternatively: Maintenance is not our culture! ... erm. Sorry! I meant: "Our developers are working on the latest features!"

@nprofile…kql9 Having to go through the whole process of a PSR or a PER to add one attribute might be a bit much. Hence the idea of going through the process to define a registry of attributes and processes to easier add entries to it.

@nprofile…dhpg If not @nprofile…f5ph it might be something that @nprofile…tzr0 or @nprofile…wjwc or @nprofile…juun or @nprofile…ydlc could take care of.
Or - actually - anyone as long as those tools decide upon using that "lib"...

I will be in east-sweden in July.
Are there any #PHP developers that might want to have a cup of coffee (or whatever your favourite beverage is) and a great time with likeminded people around gothenburg, udevalla or jönköping?

@nprofile…acfp @nprofile…xu4u The attributes get rendered into a static file. And then tests ru against this static file.
We also render a diff of that generated file against the currently published one in CI so that changes become visible and can be addressed.
Optional additions are OK, removals not. But that is a thing for the code review....

@nprofile…xu4u If its done right, then it's a) updating the code automatically and b) breaking in CI when somethung isn't updating 🙈

@nprofile…rl8l Aren't there specific rules when to use em, en and whatever else dashes? Similar do em, en, quarter and whatever else spaces?
In German typesetting there definitely are but I thought those rules apply similarily in other languages as well....
So having them doesn't mean the text was created by an AI. It just means it's typeset correctly....
If that wasn't the case before... Well... at least AI improved typesetting!

@nprofile…gd4r @nprofile…w9sc OK. So null to empty string is not lossless....
Then why us null == empty string true? 🤯

@nprofile…gd4r I am well aware of the difference between null and an empty string.
And understand that with strict types.
But *without* strict types, I am passing in a variable into a function. I'd expect the typejuggling to happen that is also used when comparing two values to one another.
As comparing null and an empty string is true I'd expect null then also.to become an empty string...
Again: I am not using strict typing! I WANT to shoot my foot! 🙈

So #PHP gurus out there....
Given a non strict-types file:
Why can I pass an integer to a function that expects a string but not null?
https://3v4l.org/YjrlP
I would have expected null to be converted to an empty string (like for comparisson)...
Clearly I am missing something....
Who can shed some light?
