Last year my design won the PHP Foundation contest for the PHP 8.5 release page.
This year I went further, a full redesign proposal for the php.net homepage and docs, built around PHP 8.6. Just for the love of PHP, and for fun.

Unless you live under a stone, everybody will have heard about PHP today.
Now, please realize that the vast majority of Open Source Software, like PHP, and including PHP, is largely maintained by **unpaid volunteers**.

In our latest blog post, @alexdaubois shares how the PHP Security Team operates, how your security reports are triaged, and how you can do your part to help PHP be more secure. thephp.foundation/blog/2026/…

Two identical websites. One vibe-coded in four minutes. One built on WordPress. Let’s launch them both and see what happens...

Relying heavily on AI doesn’t only stifle critical thinking. It constrains creativity too.
New evidence: People generate more original ideas when they consult AI sometimes, rather than extensively or rarely.
Independent thought is a foundation of ingenuity.

ALT Photo of a slide that says: “If something “just” works, it generally means someone in the background is putting a sh*tload of effort into it to keep it running smoothly.”

The browser is striking back.
Bloated stacks, fragile abstractions, bad defaults - it’s all catching up with us.
I’ll dig into all of this at Web Directions Dev Summit, Nov 19–20 (Sydney + online).

Feeling embarrassed by your past work is not a sign of incompetence. It’s a mark of growth.
Regretting your prior decisions doesn't reflect poor judgment. It reveals new insight.
Cringing at your old opinions doesn't display ignorance. It demonstrates an open mind.

A small suggestion of mine in a tactical place has yielded results 🎉
As of today the CONTRIBUTING files in GitHub repositories will be easier to find.
Kudos to the @github team which actioned this suggestion.

Great communication
isn’t just about words—it’s about understanding what isn’t said.
Listen closely, and you’ll hear what matters most.

I have written about the security vulnerabilities that I see
1. Most commonly mass-exploited;
2. Used to take over entire websites;
3. Cause the most harm. 👇

I am getting tired from influencers with little to no tech industry experience to write stupid stuff like this for likes.
As @simonw said:
“Quitting programming as a career right now because of LLMs would be like quitting carpentry thanks to the invention of the table saw.”
