No, OOP is optional in PHP.
PHP is huge and more relevant than you realise. There are many many PHP developers.
IMO one of the things holding the fediverse back is that not much of it is written in Python or PHP. Neither are “good” languages but there is a massive pool of developers and they’re easy to get up and running.
Seems like ‘top’ is based on the number of boosts instead of upvotes.
Go to https://kbin.social/settings/general and choose the Subscribed home page.
Often, the option to downvote is the only thing stopping me from getting sucked into some stupid argument with an idiot. It is a massive productivity booster. Downvote and move on.
I wish kbin would hide posts with lots of downvotes…
I expect it will be - it seems to almost work already. For example, take this peertube channel - https://tube.arthack.nz/c/intertwingled/videos?s=1.
I tried a few different things in the kbin search and @intertwingled@tube.arthack.nz
got a result that I could subscribe to. If that channel posts another video, it might show up in kbin. Will it be a microblog? A thread? A magazine? Who knows! kbin seems very confused about all of this.
When things are working properly, it does.
You don’t need to read much history to find plenty of bad things done by non-commercial entities, e.g. governments. Or churches.
It’s not commerce that is the problem, it is oppression. Use of my code for oppressive purposes is the thing I want to avoid.
Wanna see something that makes even Perl look elegant and readable? Check out any sed script. Here’s tetris, in sed: https://github.com/uuner/sedtris/blob/master/sedtris.sed
I wonder if Gab was invited. It would be hilarious if the only instances willing to federate with Meta were Nazis.
This seems ideal for something like ActivityPub where data is flowing between different people and places all the time. Looks like the tooling isn’t there yet, though.
Total rage bait. Barry Soper is trash.
On One News this evening they were very clear that other factors (such as how long they’ve been waiting, how sick the person is) are still more important than the patient’s ethnicity.
The key thing is that clinical priority absolutely predominates the score anyone gets.

None of this was mentioned in the NZ Herald piece. Barry Soper, the author, is a political hack who should not be trusted. He gives journalism a bad name and discredits the publication he writes for. I absolutely can’t stand the guy and am disappointed in anyone who uncritically promotes his work.
When I say “optional”, I mean you can just create a filename.php and start putting lines of code into it, and it’ll work fine. But, these days OOP is favored by most and pretty much everyone is using it. So if you are working on code that other people have written, classes are everywhere.
A lot of Wordpress code is non-OOP, though.
