Hey #php fans

I've implemented a polyfill for bcround() for php < 8.4.

It only supports PHP_ROUND_HALF_UP mode.

Can you find any problems?

I bought my first #mac 😃

Do you know any good articles for quick setup ? I'll use it for #programming using #phpstorm #php and #angular

Also any tools recommended? For example for multi-tab #ssh ?

I did a little more research and it seems that "MAX" only have extra GPU and i don't need GPU, so PRO is better.

Also it seems that M4 Pro has better cost/performance ratio than M3 Pro.

With M4 Pro there is no 1TB version (at least in my country) so it must be 512 Gb SSD

The current configuration I think I need:
MacBook Pro 16" / M4 Pro / 48G RAM / 512 G SSD

Is this configuration ok ? or is it too much ?

@simonhamp
On Windows, i usually see 30-36 Gb of RAM used (out of 64) while programming (phpstorm, WSL2, chrome, angular dev server, mysql workbench, mysql dev server, antivirus, teams, outlook, excel, whatsapp, etc).

I don't use docker much but i want to change that in the future.

Angular dev server (Node +esbuild) use some CPU and we have some specific php processing that also require high CPU

Does this means I need this expensive beast? MacBook Pro 16", Apple M3 MAX, 1TB SSD, 48 Gb RAM

I want to buy my first #mac laptop for #programming
What is the recommended configuration for #php ( #phpstorm ) + #angular development ?

@derickr Thanks for answering.

@OndrejMirtes maybe you should remove links from PHPStan PRO interface in this case? Or provide the steps to make it work ? Does it work in other browsers?

how can i make phpstorm://open?file=...&line=1 links work in chrome ?

I'm interested in buying new laptop (for business) and can't figure out what brands are most secure.

Is Lenovo considered secure from EU/US perspective? From what I can find it seems it's controlled by China.

Is there a top of brands from a security perspective?

#security #privacy

@ramsey is there any reason to install them locally to the proiect? I install them globally as phar archives. I switched to this approach years ago specifically to fix issues like this

@derickr You are amazing!
The DLLs haven't reached PECL. Are they released elsewhere?

Is there anyone who can build the #php ssh2 pecl package for Windows for PHP 8.3?

The last DLL built is for PHP 8.1, and it would be great to have an updated version for PHP 8.3.

Thanks

@nielsdos thank you!

Is there any chance Dom memory (libxml) to be "seen" by php in a future version, to be properly constrained (memory limit)?

@ramsey automatic test pipeline runs successfully on php8.3 with only a few dependencies moved to dev-master for compatibility with PHP8.3.

Production version: PHP8.2

Thank you for all the good work.

@ramsey it could be a DDOS atack attempt with something like slowloris. If the server resources are ok then your website should be fine.

@remi right now i cannot use el9 when the application mix that will end up on that server requires PHP older than 7.4 because it's not available on your repository 😅

Even if applications that are currently developed at the company I am currently hired are using php8.1 there are older application that the manager doesn't want to invest time in for upgrade. So we have a mix of PHP versions.

I plan moving everything on containers, sometime...

P.S. thank you for your hard work!
