How often do you need the HA features BEAM can give you in a webapp though?
I wonder what we will find beneath Greenland's ice?

Agreed. Just because no one has shared the exact exploit doesn't make it not exist.

session.use_strict_mode = 1 as well. some advice around disabling multipart uploads too.
I think Australia is a great country and Australians should be proud of our British heritage, institutions and culture. I don't think that's incompatible with reparations or whatever you have in mind for the Aboriginals.
The current government seems to be quite determined to pretend our British heritage isn't a large and important part of us. I don't understand it.

php is probably about as secure as nginx. big old bundles of C
amusing the site is available over ipv6. I suppose ipv6 was around back then, at least.

In the age of LLMs it shouldn't be a big deal to migrate any legacy ASP to .net core, surely
Re:Learn PHP in 2026 (Yes, Really) on Sunday June 07, 2026 @09:24PM (#48440369)
php has a decent standard library and the edit/reload workflow suits llms quite well but I wouldn't learn it if I didn't already know it in 2026

Impressive piece of work from the AIs here.

Re:Perl's decline was cultural on Sunday December 07, 2025 @02:22AM (#46179884)
I tried to learn perl a few times early in my career, we still had some old perl internal sites and a bit of tooling written in it. I really struggled to find good resources on the web at the time, and most of the perl I was exposed to was so badly written as to be incomprehensible to me. I knew C and Python at the time.

I wonder how common my experience was and why the next gen (at the time) I was part of never learned it
