PHP-Help.net is born !
04/11/2005 03:27 AMPHP-Help.net is born today, a few days before Christmas.
Its main goal will be to build a database of explained PHP source
codes.
It is dedicated to both beginners and confirmed PHP developers:
It will bring to the new developper some PHP usage examples,
and allow experienced developers to submit their codes to community
in order to improve it. We hope you will enjoy our work,
Matt <matt@php-help.net>

"Wh

Charles Bukowski speaks
in
John Dullaghan's
documentary about the
poet and
novelist,
fam
ous for his writing and infamous for his
drinking and
brawling and
screwing. The audience member might respond, "To hear
your story,
Han
k, that's what I want."
The movie
opens with friends (Sean Penn, Harry Dean Stanton, Bono) and
colleagues and lovers and fans
recounting the myth; theirs are stories of blades pulled on the
maitre d' of the swanky
Pol
o Lounge in Beverly Hills, of dangling dicks revealed in public,
of
a drunk
who'd just as soon crack his bottle over your head than share its
contents.

Superman born in Germany? It appears that "the boy's mutant
DNA segment was found to block production of a protein called
myostatin that limits muscle growth."
"Now we can say that myostatin acts the same way in humans as in
animals," said the boy's physician, Dr. Markus Schuelke, a
professor in the child neurology department at Charite/University
Medical Center Berlin. "We can apply that knowledge to humans,
including trial therapies for muscular dystrophy."

Natural Born Killers of PHP
Natural Born Killers of PHP
10/28/2003 11:08 PMRecently I revised Optimizing PHP, an article that I wrote in 2002.
I'm pleased to say that it hasn't aged much. The changes I had to make
include a recommendation to use FastCGI with IIS, adding Turck MMCache
to the opcode cache list, recommending Cache_Lite, replacing foreach
with list/each for large arrays, and the realisation that arrays need
to be passed by reference too.
Then I realized how much more I could have discussed. I started to
think more about performance profiling after discussing APD in a
previous post.
Now there is some logic to the fact that functions with many lines of
code will run slower than ones which are short and brief.
However sometimes it's the shortest code snippet that cause the real
slowdowns. That's because these code snippets call external functions
that hide a lot of complexity behind a deceptively simple and light
exterior. With any of the following natural born killers, one
thoughtless line of code can result in a unbearable x100 times
slowdown:
SQL statements - for example, adding a simple ORDER BY clause to a
query could cause a massive slowdown because all records will have to
be obtained on the server and sorted first before it is sent to the
PHP client.
Regular expressions - because regular expressions work by
back-tracking when a match fails, its common for a regular expression
to be exponentially expensive to compute. The longer the string, the
worse it becomes.
Network calls - the increasing popularity of SOAP and similar
inefficient but easy-to-use protocols open up new vistas of
unscalability for the unwary.
Classic performance tuning techniques used by XDebug and APD give you
a summary of all functions with long execution times. This is useful,
but we need tools to easily pinpoint, measure and tune the overhead of
killers such as SQL statements, regular expressions and RPC calls. I
think that we already have enough Open Source CMS projects out there.
Tuning tools like this are great idea for students and developers with
time to kill, looking for an interesting Open Source project to start.

09/03/2004 04:41 PMWe arrived at my family's house in the Berkshires to discover that
both phones and many of the lights are fried. Apparently, there was a
lightning strike. Or maybe it's just my bad electrical mojo running
ahead of me. So, I had to drive around with Netstumbler to find a
working, open wifi hotspot in town. (Yay for free wifi.) It's gone
this afternoon, though. So, I have 12 minutes remaining on the public
Internet in the local library. Must type faster......

"While a business process is running," an IBM white paper on BPEL4WS
dryly notes, "it might be necessary to undo one of the steps that have
already been successfully completed." Translation: Things can get
screwed up, and then they need to be fixed. If there's anything
revolutionary about Web services, it's the notion that we'll be able
to deal with the inevitable screwups in more realistic and more
effective ways. Compensation can't simply mean what it does to a
programmer: chaining back through a nested series of automatic
exception handlers. We have to accept that it's often people who both
throw and handle the exceptions, and we have to build software systems
that gracefully include them. [Full story at Inf

report on Web services, touches on some things I'll say more about
