Cranking PHPStan to 10

2 months ago | phparch.com | Scott Keck-Warren |Oscar Merida |Christopher Miller |Edward Barnard

By Scott Keck-Warren Several jobs ago, when we realized that we needed a new database server, it was a complicated process. We had to write up a lengthy explanation about why we needed the new server along with some estimates on storage growth and usage over the lifetime of the server (which, if we’re honest, were all guesses, and I’m glad nobody called me on them). by Scott Keck-Warren By Oscar Merida Improving code quality requires pushing boundaries.

Magazine › 2024 › Lounging Around with PHP By Scott Keck-Warren As developers, there’s constantly some new and exciting tool, technique, or package that we **should** be learning. If you’re anything like me, every couple of months, you create a new Git repository, install the latest packages, and start on a brand new side project, only to get bored as you have to write a user registration system for the umpteenth time.
The Symfony of PHP

Nov 7, 2024 | phparch.com | Oscar Merida |Christopher Miller |Edward Barnard |John Congdon

By Oscar Merida We’ve been working on an API client and making decent progress while we discover new tools that we can use to improve our development work. If you’ve been following along, you may be asking why it seems we’ve made so little progress in implementing all the functionality available for the API. This month, we look at the progress to date and explain why we’re working at a slower pace.
PHP Is Listening

Sep 30, 2024 | phparch.com | Edward Barnard |Oscar Merida |Beth Long |Christopher Miller

By Edward Barnard Our Back Office methodology simplifies complex tasks by breaking them into single-purpose activities. Using a Business Process Diagram (BPD), we address known and unknown project elements iteratively. Our case study, integrating Stripe with Sage Intacct, shows how we automate processes while ensuring stakeholder buy-in.
Deep Diving PHP Security

May 1, 2024 | phparch.com | Matt Lantz |Oscar Merida |Edward Barnard |Beth Long

By Matt Lantz Programming languages are evolving fast, and developers need to keep up with reason. I have heard about many colleagues wanting to explore new languages, and the two most popular were Rust and Golang. The two popular programming languages, Golang and Rust, have risen to prominence beyond the PHP community. These two highly sought-after languages have some comparable features and functionality.
A substitutional quantum defect in WS2 discovered by high-throughput computational screening and fabricated by site-selective STM manipulation - Nature Communications

Apr 25, 2024 | nature.com | John Thomas |Weiru Chen |Antonio Rossi |Zhuohang Yu |Da Zhou |Shalini Kumari | +9 more

AbstractPoint defects in two-dimensional materials are of key interest for quantum information science. However, the parameter space of possible defects is immense, making the identification of high-performance quantum defects very challenging. Here, we perform high-throughput (HT) first-principles computational screening to search for promising quantum defects within WS2, which present localized levels in the band gap that can lead to bright optical transitions in the visible or telecom regime.

It only takes 24 seconds, and I hope you do play along. With “A View From 2500 Feet”, I expect every month will include airplanes, algorithms, and abstract thinking. Airplanes? Yes! Airplanes solved my problem in software development. This month, I’m sharing that story with you.

Magazine › 2023 › Command Line Picasso By Edward Barnard For the past four years at the USA Clay Target League, we’ve been working toward updating our PHP software. Domain-Driven Design appeared to be a good direction for us. We’re not there yet. But there is one particular pattern that I’ve been using over and over, which I’ll be sharing below.
