Evolution of PHP and Its Future

PHP stands for Hypertext Preprocessor, is a widely used scripting language for web development. Since its inception in the mid-1990s, PHP has evolved significantly, adapting to changing technology trends and incorporating new features and improvements. In this blog, we will delve into the evolution of PHP, exploring the significant versions, modern development practices, and the future outlook of this dynamic language. As a PHP developer or someone interested in web development, understanding the evolution of PHP is crucial to stay up to date with the latest advancements and make informed decisions when building web applications. So, let's embark on a journey through the evolution of PHP and discover how it has shaped the world of web development.

Evolution of PHP Versions

Since its inception, PHP has undergone several major releases, each bringing significant improvements and new features to the language. Let's explore the evolution of PHP versions and understand the key advancements in each iteration.

PHP 1: 

The first version of PHP was released, providing basic functionality for web development.

PHP 2: 

The second version of PHP introduced support for dynamic web pages and database connectivity.

PHP 3: 

Support for object-oriented programming, which greatly enhanced the language’s capabilities.

PHP 4: 

Introduced several new features, including support for XML, improved database connectivity, and the ability to create web services.

PHP 5:

Enhanced error handling mechanisms, Improved performance, and memory management.

PHP 7:

Introduction of the Zend Engine 3, Addition of scalar type declarations for function arguments and return values, Introduction of anonymous classes, and closure improvements.

PHP 8:

Introduce JIT compiler, Addition of union types, allowing variables and function return types to accept multiple possible types. Enabling metadata to be attached to classes, methods, and properties.

The evolution of PHP versions demonstrates the continuous effort to enhance the language's performance, flexibility, and functionality. Each release has introduced features and improvements to make PHP more robust, secure, and developer-friendly.

Modern PHP Development Practices

With the evolution of PHP, modern development practices have emerged, enabling developers to write more efficient, maintainable, and scalable code. Let's explore some of the critical practices that have gained popularity in the PHP ecosystem:

Object-Oriented Programming (OOP):

Embracing OOP principles allows developers to organize code into reusable objects and classes.

Encapsulation, inheritance, and polymorphism facilitate modular and structured code development.

OOP promotes code reusability, separation of concerns, and easier maintenance.

PHP Frameworks:

Utilizing PHP frameworks, such as Laravel, Symfony, or CodeIgniter, streamlines development by providing pre-built components, libraries, and MVC (Model-View-Controller) architecture.

Frameworks facilitate rapid development, code organization, and everyday tasks like routing, database handling, and user authentication.

They promote best practices and standardize coding conventions, leading to cleaner and more maintainable codebases.

Dependency Management:

Adopting dependency management tools like Composer simplifies the integration of external libraries and packages into PHP projects.

Composer allows developers to define project dependencies and automatically manages their installation and updates.

It promotes code reuse, reduces wheel reinvention, and ensures project dependencies are easily maintainable.

Unit Testing:

Writing unit tests using frameworks like PHPUnit helps ensure code correctness, identify and prevent bugs, and facilitate code refactoring.

Unit tests provide a safety net when making changes, allowing developers to validate that existing functionality remains intact.

Test-driven development (TDD) is an approach that emphasizes writing tests before writing the actual code, leading to more reliable and maintainable software.

PSR Standards:

The PHP Standards Recommendations (PSR) are guidelines and standards established by the PHP community to promote interoperability and consistency in PHP projects.

Adhering to PSR standards improves code readability, collaboration, and compatibility across different frameworks and libraries.

Following PSR standards ensures that codebases are well-structured, easily maintainable, and accessible to a broader community of developers.

Continuous Integration and Deployment (CI/CD):

Implementing CI/CD pipelines, utilizing tools like Jenkins or GitLab CI, automates the building, testing, and deployment of PHP applications.

Continuous integration ensures that code changes are regularly integrated into a shared repository, preventing integration issues.

Continuous deployment automates deploying code to production environments, ensuring a streamlined release process.

Future Outlook of PHP

PHP has come a long way since its inception, and its future looks promising as it continues to evolve and adapt to the ever-changing web development landscape. Let's explore some key aspects that shape the future outlook of PHP:

Performance and Scalability:

With the introduction of the Just-In-Time (JIT) compilation in PHP 8, performance improvements have already been made.

Further advancements in PHP's runtime engine and optimizations are expected, enhancing its performance and scalability for handling modern web applications.

Language Enhancements:

PHP's development community is continuously working on introducing new language features and improvements to enhance developer productivity and code maintainability.

Future PHP versions may introduce additional language constructs, syntactic sugar, and language-level abstractions to simplify everyday development tasks.

Security Enhancements:

PHP developers increasingly focus on security practices to protect applications from vulnerabilities and attacks.

The PHP community actively releases security updates, and future versions are expected to include enhanced security features and improved default security configurations.

Support for Modern Web Standards:

PHP is expected to continue adapting to modern web standards and technologies, such as HTTP/2, WebSockets, and Progressive Web Applications (PWAs).

Frameworks and libraries will continue to evolve to support these standards, enabling developers to build cutting-edge web applications.

Integration with Emerging Technologies:

PHP will likely integrate with emerging technologies like machine learning, artificial intelligence, and the Internet of Things (IoT).

Integration with these technologies will open up new possibilities for PHP developers to build intelligent and data-driven applications.

Community Growth and Collaboration:

The PHP community continues to grow, fostering collaboration, knowledge sharing, and open-source contributions.

PHP conferences, meetups, and online forums provide platforms for developers to connect, learn from each other, and stay updated with the latest trends and advancements.

Compatibility and Legacy Support:

PHP remains committed to backward compatibility, ensuring existing PHP applications can be migrated and maintained without significant disruptions.

Future PHP versions will likely strike a balance between introducing new features and maintaining compatibility with earlier versions.

Conclusion

PHP has evolved significantly over the years, transforming from a simple scripting language to a powerful and versatile tool for web development. In this blog, we explored the evolution of PHP versions, modern PHP development practices, adapting to modern PHP development tools, and the future outlook of PHP.

the docs for the regular variable bind say that you can reuse statements by simply assigning the bound variables new values, and well it looks like that was a lie too.

My dad runs a website that he inherited from another guy and something went wrong this week and the site is redirecting to an AI porn chatbot site so I've been tapped as the only one in the family with any wordpress admin experience to fix this problem.

The site has a bunch of inactive admins who nonetheless still have admin privileges, is running on a version of PHP that hasn't had support in two years, and, most maddeningly, had about 35 plugins installed.

I'm fixing this and rooting out the malware redirecting the site, but I took a photo of the most bugfuck plugin that I knew Tumblr would appreciate:

Quick info on relocating from the US to the Philippines (yes, even if you're poor)

Source of my info: I've lived here in the Philippines for about seven years now, my (also from the US) wife has been here almost as long, and we had our daughter here. This is for people who have a location-independent source of income like SSDI (NOT SSI), remote job, etc.

I keep starting to type up a guide to moving to the Philippines from the US, but there's so much to cover I keep getting stuck! It's coming, though. As for why the Philippines, I did a lot of research before leaving the US, and it's the absolute easiest, least expensive, friendliest, and lowest-hassle English-speaking country to move to. You can stay on a tourist visa for three years at a time by extending every two months. At the end of three years, you buy a budget round trip ticket (for under 100 bucks) to Singapore, Kuala Lumpur, or whatever, walk around the airport, and hop on the place back.

Note: For convenience, I'm using US Dollars when discussing the prices you can expect to pay for things here, but only Philippines Pesos are accepted in the Philippines. Your US ATM card will get you pesos from the ATM, and with your US credit cards, you will generally get a choice between dollars and pesos.

The short version of what I recommend, without always explaining why you need these things:

A throw-away ongoing ticket leaving the Philippines within 29 days of your arrival. You may not be able to board the plane here without one. This is a MUST. There is a very slim chance that they MAY not ask to see proof of an ongoing ticket, but if they do, and you don't have it, you won't be allowed to board.

A location-independent source of income for at least 600 USD a month--That's enough to live like a local, without Western conveniences. No one will ask for proof of income, but you have to eat! 1K or more will have you living pretty well, and on 2K you can live like royalty. You can receive SSDI here and social security retirement, but NOT SSI.

Two bank accounts with ATM cards, and two credit cards through different banks. Mastercard and Visa are your best bets, as not everyplace takes Discover or AmEx yet. (MOST places do, but just to be safe.)

Some banks sound better than they are. Schwab bank advertises that they reimburse overseas ATM charges, and they do, BUT they may drop you if you're out of the US for more than a couple of years (like they did us and several others we've spoken to). We have an Aspiration account (and yes, that's an affiliate link, but you can just look them up if you want, too), and like them.

TELL YOUR BANKS YOU'RE COMING HERE! Otherwise you risk having your ATM/credit cards deactivated for "suspicious activity."

A few weeks before departure, you'll want to buy some Philippines Pesos. Your local bank probably won't have them, but they can order them. I recommend having at least 10,000 PHP on hand (about 180 USD), in a mix of 1K bills, 500s, and 100s. You're allowed to bring up to 50,000 pesos with you, but any more than that and you have to declare it.

Bring your medications. Get your doctor to write a scrip that ups your dose so you can bring at least a 90-day supply that looks on paper like a 30-day supply. Put multiple desiccant packs in your prescription bottles, or the humidity here will turn your meds into a single big lump. You will want the original bottle with the printed prescription label, and maybe a photocopy of the actual prescription. (There's a reason they do original packaging, and not pill bottles here.) I've never had my luggage searched or even had them LOOK at my medications, but who knows what the future holds?

Some meds may not be available in the Philippines, or may be harder to get. (I had to switch from vicodin to tramadol because vicodin is simply not available here.)

Lodgings: Look, I hate AirBNB as a business, too, but you need a place to stay while you look for permanent digs, so book one well in advance. You can get a month's stay for 300-500 bucks even in the big cities if you shop around. In the Manila area, I liked the places I stayed at in Blue Residences and Grass Residences. I only include this info because my AuDHD ass stressed so much over where to stay, and I figure I can save you that same stress if you're worried.

Some advantage of staying in AirBnBs for a month or three are that a) you're not in an immediate rush to find an apartment and get household stuff, b) it gives you time to make some local connections before committing to a long-term lease, and b) if you're staying at a unit in a condo building, you can get to know the staff, which can be a HUGE help in getting settled.

Once you're here, you can find decent permanent lodgings for under 200 a month if you shop around. Blue Residences, last time I checked, had studio condos for about 180 USD a month last time I checked. (No, I don't get anything for recommending them--Just trying to give the best info I can.)

These are the bare basics of getting here.

A few general tidbits, in no specific order:

As for vaccinations, get them here, where they're cheaper.

We like living in Baguio. It's an artsy little university city of about 400,000 people, up in the mountains, about a four hour bus ride North of Manila, and it stays cool enough up here that we don't really need air conditioning--which is the biggest utility expense you'll have in lowlands cities like Manila. We know people who rent temporary housing to tourists and students, so let me know if you need a referral. We only stayed in the Manila area for about six months, with occasional trips down there to take care of things at the US Embassy, but we can give SOME guidance on that area.

Which reminds me: If being near the embassy is a concern, you may want to stay in the Manila area. The new regime in the US is changing social security rules so that to do something as simple as changing your direct deposit requires an in-person appointment, and who knows what else they're going to change?

In Baguio, we get fresh produce from the wet market delivered to our door for a third or less of what it would cost at local supermarkets.

The humidity is intense in the Philippines. 80 degrees in Quezon City feels hotter than 110 in Kansas.

Most places here, when they say unfurnished, they mean COMPLETELY unfurnished. No fridge, no stove, no anything; just bare rooms. Most locals cook on a mini gas range with a propane tank, and a counter-top oven. This is part of why I say you'll want a couple of credit cards. You can get set up with the above for a couple of hundred dollars, but still, if you're moving partly out of financial stress, you'll want to pay these things off gradually.

ASK if a place has a shower heater. Many do not. If not, you can get one at the local hardware store and hire an installer for as little as a couple hundred dollars total. (You can use a card at the hardware store, but the installer will want cash.)

You'll have filtered drinking water delivered in five gallon jugs, for around 50 cents per jug; even the locals don't drink the tap water. One jug will last you about a week unless you drink LOTS of water. (We go through three jugs a week in a household with three adults and one toddler, but as an autistic man, I drink more sparkling water than regular water, or we'd probably go through four a week.) You'll want a cheap little pump you can get at the hardware store, or you can order an electric one online (or lift the jug and pour). If you want to be fancy you can get a water-cooler-type thing.

Food is SO inexpensive if you go to the wet market or have them deliver to you. We spend about 400 dollars a month on groceries--including snacks, etc.--for all four of us. Going out to eat can cost less than two dollars if you shop around like a local. Public transport is ubiquitous and costs pennies to use, while taxis can start as low as 75 cents (here in Baguio, anyway).

Get the Grab app. It will be your friend.

A doctor's visit will cost maybe twelve bucks even for a specialist, but be prepared to wait. When they say, "Come in at 10 am," what they mean is, "my clinic hours start at 10am, so you can come put your name on the list at that time, and if you're lucky you won't have too many people ahead of you."

This is by no means comprehensive, but I'm tired, and my daughter needs attention, so bye for now!

Hello! Welcome to the official Double Dead Studio Tumblr, the solodev behind Reanimated Heart, Another Rose in His Garden, and Pygmalion's Folly.

Reanimated Heart is a character-driven horror romance visual novel about finding love in a mysterious small town. There are three monstrous love interests with their own unique personalities and storylines.

Another Rose in His Garden is an 18+ erotic Omegaverse BL visual novel. Abel Valencia is an Omega who's hidden his secondary sex his entire life. Life's alright, until he meets the wealthy tycoon, Mars Rosales, and the two get embroiled in a sexual affair that changes his life forever.

Pygmalion's Folly is a survival murdersim where you play as Roxham Police Department's star detective, hellbent on finding your sister's killer... until he finds you. 

Content Warning: All my games are 18+! They contains dark subject matter such as violence and sexual content. Player discretion is advised.

This blog is ran by Jack, the creator.

Itch | Link Tree | Patreon | Twitter

Guidelines

My policy for fanwork is that anything goes in fiction, but respect my authority and copyright outside it. This means normal fan activity like taking screencaps, posting playthroughs, and making fanart/fanfiction is completely allowed, but selling this game or its assets isn't allowed (selling fanwork of it is fine, though). You are also not allowed to feed any of my assets to AI bots, period, even if it's free.

Do not use my stuff for illegal or hateful content.

Also, I expect everyone to respect the Content Warnings on the page. I'm old and do not tolerate fandom wank.

For more details about how I view Fanwork, refer to this post.

F.A.Q.

Who are the main Love Interests in Reanimated Heart?

Read their character profiles here!!

Who's the team?

Jack (creator, writer, artist), mostly. I closely work with Exodus (main programmer) and Claira (music composer). My husband edits the drafts.

For Reanimated Heart, my friend Bonny makes art assets. I've also gotten help from outsiders like Sleepy (prologue music + vfx) and my friend Gumjamin (main menu heart animation).

For Reanimated Heart's VOs, Alex Ross voices Crux, Devin McLaughlin voices Vincenzo, Christian Cruz voices Black, Maganda Marie voices Grete, and Zoe D. Lee voices Missy.

Basically, it's mostly just me & outsourcing stuff to my friends and professionals.

How can I support Double Dead Studio productions?

You can pay for the game, or join our monthly Patreon! If you don't have any money, just giving it a nice rating and recommending it to a friend is already good enough. :)

Where do the funds go to?

Almost 100% gets poured back into the game. More voice acting, more music, more trailers, more art, etc. I also like to give my programmer a monthly tip for helping me.

This game is really my insane passion project, and I want to make it better with community support.

I live in the Philippines and the purchasing power of php is not high, especially since many of the people I outsource to prefer USD. (One time I spent P10k of my own money in one month just to get things.) I'll probably still do that, even if no money comes in, until I'm in danger of getting kicked out the street… but maybe even then? (jk)

What platforms will Reanimated Heart be released in?

Itch and then Steam when it's fully finished. Still looking into other options, as I hear both are getting bad.

Will Reanimated Heart be free?

Chapter 1 will be free. The rest will be updated on Patreon exclusively until full release.

Are you doing a mobile version?

Yeah. Just Android for now, but it's in the works.

Where can I listen to Reanimated Heart's OST?

It is currently up on YouTube, Spotify, and Bandcamp!

Why didn't you answer my ask?

A number of things! Two big ones that keep coming up are Spoilers (as in, you asked something that will be put in an update) or it's already been asked. If you're really dying to know, check the character tags or the meta commentary. You might find what you're looking for there. :)

Will there be a sequel to Pygmalion's Folly?

It's not my first concern right now, but I am planning on it.

A little reflection on lore and AUs

This is something that's been roaming in my mind for a while, I just want to put it down on "paper".

All of us have their main AU. And with AU, I mean a universe where their characters are canon in the KND lore and live their own adventures. All of us have a main timeline with the main characters that will go on living their lives and adventures.

This AU can generate more AUs within it, where little things change, and these will be labeled as "AUs" by the creator since they derive from the main plot but then develop into something else. And these kinds of AUs are fun because you can explore different possibilities within your own story!

Now, that being said, let's talk about "adding someone else's OC into your story". I see it can have 4 main situations:

The OCs and their lore are now fused with your own, and you accept the existence of said OCs in your story since they don't change the end result, if anything they make it funnier to achieve;

The OCs are a different AU and you know it, and you just play it as a different AU from your plot, it's just for fun;

This is a "different universes meeting" kind of deal, a portal opened somewhere, and now the AUs are interacting. They won't change their final story, but this is a fun little moment that can be canon or not;

You acknowledge these OCs may exist in your own universe but also specify that, even if they might have the same story and personalities, they also might be a different experience from the main AU the creator invented for them. They just exist in your universe, but they are not the same exact people.

I love the 3rd plotline a lot, I find myself doing that but with past and future, having them meet for the lolz (even if it's just an AU into my story). I am also up for RPing AUs meeting because I find the concept really funny and interesting, with characters explaining their deal and then going on adventures together (also because let's be real, Penny ain't gonna meet anyone's OC anytime soon since there's age difference).

But when I introduced the idea that @artsygirl0315's Sector PHP meets Irwin I started diving into the 4th case: these OCs might exist in my universe but they are not the exact same.

As an example, still using Sector PHP: let's say I will have them show up for the Nightmare War and help others win it. They will be canon in that part of the lore (if the creator wants), but of course, in their main story the Nightmare War never happened and they will never experience it, and I won't force them to add it to their canon, since this is completely my creation and *I* only know how to develop and end.

Another example (sorry for dragging you in but this is relevant lol), is @roguephenon, who has the plan to make Penny canon in his AU story, but she's gonna be a different version of Penny, even if they might end up having the same main traits. He can have Penny do what he wants, and he can modify her a bit, but still, Penny is now canon in my AU and his AU too! Maybe one day these two will also meet and tbh I LIVE to see that moment!

Honestly, usually, the fandoms I was in were canon-oriented, there weren't too many OCs, and if there were, I and other creators would go the 3rd route and have AUs somehow meet.

This is the first time I find myself actually wondering if I can make it somehow canon that someone else's OC exists in my AU. And I like it!

Of course, if you don't like the idea just hit me up (literally, with a bat) and say you don't want your OC into my lore but you're up for AUs meeting or whatever you prefer!

So far, I am just playing around with OCs meeting and having fun but... well, I do need people for the Nightmare War LMAO.

What do you think? What is your favorite thing to play?

Back Up *MOSTLY*

All on-premises Squidge services (squidge.org, Image Hosting, SquidgeWorld, Classic Squidge, IRC) went down Thursday night at approximately 6pm Pacific time due to network issues.  We seem to be mostly up this morning, with the exception of Classic Squidge which only hosts a very small number of websites that depend on a very insecure, outdated version of PHP.  That said, there could still be…

[trainsinanime]

I've finally fixed trainsingames.com, so you can now actually read the things I wrote there, see the screenshots and so on. Just to be clear, this isn't my best work, it's all from 2013 or earlier, I'd definitely do and say things differently now, but hey, I still made it, and I don't want to see it gone.

The site is basically archived. I have no plans to write anything more for it at the moment. Never say never, of course, but given how few games I played over the past years, I don't really see it happening, sorry.

(I also have no plans to open it up to others, sorry, because that's something I'd need to manage, I'd probably need to install a proper CRM and so on, and I just don't have the time or energy for that among all my other hobbies.)

On the website front, I may do some changes, just to make it look nicer, but there's no set time frame for that. I also want to change it to a system where the site is just static HTML that gets regenerated from PHP when I update it (or something like that) to avoid any issues like this one in the future. For the record, the problem was that the Markdown parser I had from ~2007 didn't work with modern PHP versions, so I finally updated it.

And yes, I made trainsingames.com long before this blog, that's where I got the idea for this URL from.
