Set session.upload_progress.enabled=0 till next PHP release to block an unlikely RCE vector (CVE-2026-115560). Already recommended for CVE-2026-109619 Wed, keep disabled. Only apps with non-default serialize_handler switching it to "php" at runtime can be affected. #php #phpc

If all the govs shutting down servers for a PHP update, all the hosters & enterprises terrified by the vuln, gave $100k, or just $50k a year to the PHP Foundation, things could look very differently. Go, make your employer sponsor *today* thephp.foundation/sponsor/ #php #phpc @thephpf.bsky.social

The BBC here, wheeling out their top tier journalists to cover the #php story.

To leak and then amplify a leak to social media before a scheduled security emergency patch is incredibly irresponsible, especially given how serious the vulnerability is.

It's grim out there. Here is an AI company called Xonora Music putting an AI slop record out, unchecked, on Spotify that does not contain either of the artists mentioned. Just plays; that's all it wants.

Live in about 10 mins, it's The Dev Radio: Live. What's in the crate this time? www.twitch.tv/thedevradio/...

Hello Berlin! The question is... Are #android and #flutter and #ios #swift developers ready to hear about.....er, #php?

Delphic are back!!!!! youtu.be/oMQJrcDKGd4?...

Full recap by our Developer Advocate, @secondej.bsky.social 👇 vonage.dev/47tzuqS

TIL that Lembit Öpik, the Cheeky Girls MP, was expelled from the Lib Dems for giving a speech to Conservatives on how to combat Lib Dems, then joined Reform UK which he defended by stating, "I go where the money is".

The school holidays are over; it's time to go into fifth gear again. First up: Frankfurt, to speak about how wannabe tech influencers are taking away our humanity.

PHP Turned 31 this year, so I wrote up a first-half summary of the PHPVerse event which @brenttoderian.bsky.social and Jetbrains put together. developer.vonage.com/en/blog/php-... Features talks from Fabien Potencier, Elizabeth Barron, Nils Adermann, and Jonathan Bossinger.

I am slowly getting accustomed to MS365, but there are some UX things that are crazy anti-user. This pops up on all my emails. I don't know what it is. I want to read my email. Why is policy showing. The 'i' doesn't show more info. I now don't know if it's US date or not. You can't get rid of it.

Digital sovereignty is written in PHP. 🐘 Germany's €108M federal CMS migration, 770 EU Commission sites, 300,000 users on Nextcloud. In our latest post we examine PHP in the public sector and the funding gap that exists. thephp.foundation/blog/2026/0...

I am not at all raging that last week, to get back into Witcher III on my Steam Deck, I purchased both DLC packs, and today find out a full remastered copy is coming for free with all the DLC included.

I don't need the nuclear four minute warning to tell me not to light a disposable BBQ in a park.

The Dev Radio Live (Episode 19) was broadcast last Friday. Missed it? It's on Mixcloud. Check it out just for the enjoyment of the tracklist. www.mixcloud.com/mrsirrus/the...

A reminder that the most influential people pushing their products onto people using their platform are talking to you as consumers, but will not be doing as they say themselves. (Unless they don't like speaking to their children)

Did not have "writing Kotlin and completing Gradle builds" on today's bingo card.

I've just finished this and I can report back that not a single person in chat commented on me dropping Charlotte Church after a psychedelic trance cover of Let's Dance by David Bowie.

A particularly entertaining set for The Dev Radio Live today at 1.30pm BST. Tune in while you swear at Claude. www.twitch.tv/thedevradio/...

Time to get the retrobrite out.

I still marvel at my ability to cry every single time I listen to "Sometimes" by James, and there is absolutely no reason behind it.

Underestimating the power of our elephant-shaped language is easy. Our latest video is a deep dive into how PHP went from the wild west of the web to a serious, modern language. 🎥 Here is a sneak peek - make sure to check the full interview with @secondej.bsky.social on our channel! #php

I am of the understanding that this is actually real.

Oh, smashing. The "halftime show" has arrived.

Temporal are sponsoring Crystal Palace in the Premier League this season? Er, ok. Football and DevOps cross pollination is an interesting one.

I'm glad we have a US ref calling fair shots, considering that, as expected, we are playing a bunch of cheats.

The more backend-exposed MCP servers in products I see, the more convinced I am that AI Prompt injection is going to be the de-facto replacement for SQL Injection.

The UK has a problem with creating popularity contests for regions because one region always gets ignored. A region with the highest unemployment and poverty rates. 36 towns applied from the West Midlands. None made the shortlist. None.

Petition to ban the word "quarter" being used in a football context, ever.

It's time to talk about the future. If you're not a #php developer, why not have a brief history lesson, then look at the recent innovations that the entire community has created? @thephpf.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=fc9b...

King Charles III to telephone Infantino to ask for Quansah's red card to simply not count.

I see FIFA can't even be bothered to cover up anything anymore.

Seven hour liquid smoke brisket.

WE ARE ON BLUE SKY! #PHP debs, hello! @thephpf.bsky.social

The Dev Radio: Live, at 1.30pm BST. Summer fun in the crate. www.twitch.tv/thedevradio/...

The AI Bubble, as explained by SoftBank

What a couple of weeks it's been in PHP community land. 1. Trailer for documentary only featuring white blokes 2. All male conference (in the lineup advertised) 3. Merch release contradicting the direction the foundation is trying to head in.

#php insights from the Executive Director of @thephpf.bsky.social - on community and the future as PHP celebrates it's 31st birthday. developer.vonage.com/en/blog/an-i...
