For me, #LLMs are a huge divider between seniors and juniors. A superpower for some, a crutch or even a bad influence for others. This may seem like a pessimistic view, but all is not lost, and there are solutions! I explain all this in detail in my new story 👉 medium.com/gitconnected...

À l’occasion des 10 ans d’API Platform, la cinquième édition de l’ #APIPlatformCon a marqué un tournant avec des conférences inspirantes et avec un message clair : PHP définit son propre avenir, pragmatique, performant et centré sur le/la développeur·se : les-tilleuls.coop/blog/retour-...

Do you trust in self-documented #code, a.k.a. no comments necessary? I used to, but I don't now. 🙅‍♂️ How to draw the line between writing relevant comments and where it's just noise? I have a rule for that, that I'm sharing with you 📝 Here you go 👉 levelup.gitconnected.com/self-documen...

Many #interview processes are broken. With the rise of #agents and #LLMs, it has never been more true. 🤖 How can you ensure that a candidate, especially the most experienced ones, meets your expectations? Through good old-fashioned ways of course! 👴 👉 medium.com/gitconnected...

Only a few weeks before my talk at #CodemotionMilan! 🇮🇹 That will be my first time in Italy, and I can't wait to be there. #Codemotion already promises to be a *splendido* event, really grateful to be part of this amazing lineup 🤩 See you there? 👉 conferences.codemotion.com/milan2025/

The more #experience I gain, the more I feel like an #impostor. Quite ironic, isn't it? It’s a feeling that's almost omnipresent in my professional life. This is even more true when I give a talk or write an article like this one 👉 levelup.gitconnected.com/the-more-sen...

You released or discovered the best project you ever saw, and amazing news: you have the opportunity to give a #talk about it! But chances are that your talk will be boring. Why? And how can you avoid it everyone actually hear what you have to say? Read about it here 👉 medium.com/gitconnected...

Live at the #APIPlatformCon: @alexdaubois.bsky.social with his talk "PIE: The Next Big Thing"

Technical #debt is not (only) technical: it’s a matter #business as well, and business people should always take it as seriously as #developers do. Share it to your product owner and/or managers! 😉 Let me explain through this story 👉 levelup.gitconnected.com/the-economic...

Cette semaine c'est #APIPlatformCon à Lille chez @les-tilleuls.coop ! J'ai déjà prévu qu'y croiser @franek.chicour.net @gwinizdu.bsky.social @davlgd.fr @dunglas.dev @jean-beru.bsky.social @nicolasgrekas.bsky.social @jerome.tamarelle.net @alexdaubois.bsky.social @beoneself.bsky.social Qui d'autre ?

How did I went from reviewer to #speaker? After saying “yes” to my first live #talk, it was a piece of advice from @nicolasgrekas.bsky.social, that swept away the illegitimacy I felt. I have passed on this advice, whenever I could. Here is the whole story: alex-daubois.medium.com/the-art-of-t...

Happy to say that @symfony.com #JsonPath component is now fully RFC-compliant! Huge milestone before delivering new features 🎉 github.com/symfony/symf...

Should you always optimize your code? If yes, to which extent? I tried to answer in this hard question in a new story, based on my experience. As always, it depends 😉 Have a quick read to my new post during your morning coffee, published on #gitconnected ☕️ levelup.gitconnected.com/performance-...

Énormément de monde ce soir à l’avant-première du #ForumPHP chez @wanadevdigital.fr à Lyon. Bravo @lyon.afup.org pour l’organisation !

Can’t wait for #APIPlatformCon next week? I wrote an article for @phpconference.bsky.social that gives you a glimpse of it 👀

Who will I see there? Catch me talking about #PIE on Friday (just before lunch!), or anytime during the conference. Let's meet! 🔥

#Medium exists to share #stories, and I have many for you. Should you write clean or write fast? A big dilemma for all #developers… Or is it? Have a read in response to this post 👇

Huge milestone! ⭐️

On October 29, I'll be in Munich to talk about #FrankenPHP 🧟 at the International PHP Conference! See you there?! phpconference.com/software-arc...

📣 Time to have your say! @thephpf.bsky.social published latest experimentations with #Generics in #PHP! 💥 The proposed solution is "to get 80% of the benefit for 20% of the work" 👀 Would you say yes? I would! Share your answer, the Foundation needs feedback! 💬 thephp.foundation/blog/2025/08...

I announced a new #RFC to #PHP internals. It proposes the addition of two native functions: - is_representable_as_float() - is_representable_as_int() Would you like to see it land in the next PHP version? 👀 First feedbacks are already pretty good! 🤗 wiki.php.net/rfc/is-repre...

I created a new #PHP method for the #Reflection #API that's been merged into the core! 🚀 Happy to finally say "I wrote that one feature in PHP". Alright... It may not be the most used method and will only be used in advanced use cases. But still 🙌 github.com/php/php-src/...

With #LaraconUS around the corner, I did a little digging in the @laravel.com repo on what's been merged in the last month, and I wasn't disappointed. Here are 9 changes merged into #Laravel 12.x branch this month to prepare yourself for #Laracon next week 🧵👇

⚙️ #PHP 8.5 sees its cloning supercharged! With the "clone with" RFC merged 5 days ago, we have much more possibilities when it comes to cloning objects. Supports hooks, readonly, __clone() overriding. Thanks @timwolla.bsky.social for the #DX improvement! 👏 PR: github.com/php/php-src/...

Profitez de l'été pour (re)découvrir les articles les plus lus de notre blog cette année. Nous ouvrons cette série Best Of avec un article signé par @alexdaubois.bsky.social qui vous propose un condensé des nouveautés à retenir de Symfony 7.3. 📖

📣 This JUST got merged in #PHP a few minutes ago! It is currently challenging to deal with recursion in anonymous functions. Not anymore in PHP 8.5: the "Closure::getCurrent()" method fetches the current closure you're in 🚀 PR: github.com/php/php-src/... #phptips

You enjoyed the thread about "unadvertised" features of the upcoming #PHP 8.5 release? 🤩 Let's do it again with the latest released version, PHP 8.4, for all #Symfony/#Laravel/vanilla PHP fans 🚀 Here are 11 FEATURES you probably don't know about the current PHP version 🧵👇

Only 8 days left and fewer than 25 Regular tickets remaining 🔴 Secure your spot at the best price before the #APIPlatformCon 2025 — our biggest edition yet — sells out: api-platform.com/con/2025/tic...

New milestone: @symfony.com #JsonPath component just reached 5000 installs despite being still experimental 🎉 It should be compliant with the RFC soonish, find the PR here: github.com/symfony/symf... Already working on features for 7.4 to make the component more extensible! 🫡

Finally, @symfony.com just announced its #AI Initiative - a comprehensive framework for building AI-powered #PHP applications (even for numerous #Laravel fans!) From multi-provider #LLM support to agent-based automation and #RAG, here’s everything you need to know 🧵👇

#Symfony always keeping the pace with latest IT innovations!

I didn’t discover AGI but that’s still a great news: #Symfony #JsonPath is fully compliant to the RFC 9535! 🎉 Both using JSON as a plain-string or as a #PHP resource (it’s using @mtarld.bsky.social JsonStreamer under the hood for max speed!). Time to clean-up the diff and send a PR 😉

The @symfony.com #JsonPath component RFC compliance fixes are going strong! Expect better compliance with the RFC test suite in monthly #Symfony patch releases. About 20 cases (on nearly 900!) to fix and we're good! More info about the component 👉 symfony.com/doc/current/...

🔥 #PHP 8.5 first #alpha version has been released and it's packed of incredible features you don't know yet. @thephpf.bsky.social is delivering yet another awesome release. Here are 10 curated features, a couple you may have heard of, and many more I'm sure you'll discover here! 👇🧵

🔴 En direct de Lyon, nos coopérateurs @alexdaubois.bsky.social et @vinceamstoutz.bsky.social sont au stade Lou Rugby à l’occasion d’un meetup Sylius estival. Un plaisir de croiser des visages familiers dans une ambiance conviviale !

900 to go!

Great news: #FrankenPHP worker mode will be automatically supported in #Symfony in 7.4. No more additional package required! 💪 github.com/symfony/symf... #php @dunglas.dev @symfony.com
