Pretty funny #article on what if #php was written in #english https://aloneonahill.com/blog/if-php-wer.. I do find the use of the $ #dollar #symbol annoying, but at the same time it is #supported in #ascii , and #ascii is the lowest section of the #unicode table - so it makes sense to use it.
A #html only #forum written in #python https://github.com/Demindiro/agreper The I saw somebody linked one written in #php under 1kB: https://nerdparadise.com/programming/php.. And then somebody wrote an improved version: https://gist.github.com/Xeoncross/150359.. I could be pretty interested in writing one in C at some point using #udatabase and #smollibs .
Ouch, apparently 78% of the #internet runs #php - most of which run an old #version https://haydenjames.io/78-of-the-web-pow.. Doesn't bode well.
Watch those "do all" #implementations for #stores https://edbrsk.dev/content/real-cases/ho.. #php again is #cancer ...
I'm not sure if this says more about #php or more about #malicious actors: https://waritschlager.de/sqlinjections-i.. Almost half of the #google results contain a #sqlinjection #vulnerability ... In general, *always* assume all #userinput is complete garbage and cannot be trusted.
A very big ouch for #westerndigital - they commented out #code that checked the #authentication and this was in turn abused by #hackers to perform the mass wiping attack! https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2021/06/.. This is why we should all hate #php anyway - it is insanely easy for something like this to happen.
