Like it or not, most of us (developers) started learning in a vacuum. We learned and developed habits that worked for us at the moment, but not all of these were things we are now proud to show off. How many of us facepalm when we see our code from 5 years ago? Heck- even […]

This month marks php|architect’s tenth anniversary. I wish I could tell you that this milestone is the result of a well-reasoned long term strategy that we implemented over the years, but the reality is that it’s hard for me to overstate how proud I am of what we have achieved. When we first announced that […]

First, thank you to everyone who participated in our scavenger hunt on Friday. It was fun for us, and I hope it was fun for you as well. If you didn’t find the answer and you didn’t see the tweet giving it out, the answer was http://phparch.com/powersquid/. Blue Parabola’s own Keith Casey singing his own […]
