Pol | In reply to @piotrkwiecinski:matrix.org https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/334411 Did a review | 17:59:37 |
piotrkwiecinski | I'll update comments in a couple minutes | 18:00:58 |
Pol | excellent. | 18:02:46 |
piotrkwiecinski | Had to fix a water connector to my toilet today 😄. I was jumping between it and compilation errors | 18:02:54 |
Pol | haha been there... done that... | 18:03:10 |
piotrkwiecinski | For php 8.1 most likely we'll need all the patches in the future as it only gets security patches. | 18:04:22 |
Pol | OK | 18:05:24 |
Pol | I also really wish to build this autoComposerInstallBuild hook at some point. I really liked the idea. | 18:05:49 |

Pol | By the way, I have a small announcement to make. | 18:15:45 |
Pol | Things has been moving quite a lot these last days and turns out that I will slowly switching to some other languages at work. That means that I won't be as actively maintain the PHP stack in Nix. | 18:16:34 |
Pol | I've been looking for sponsors recently, but couldn't find any. Sponsors would definitely motivate me to still continue to work on PHP even if I don't use it anymore. | 18:17:04 |
Pol | So, this is the reason why you see me less active in here. | 18:17:25 |
Pol | So if you know a company (not you as individuals) that could potentially sponsor my work, feel free to let them know ! | 18:17:59 |
Pol | In a few words, so you know concretely what happened... | 18:18:32 |
Pol | I went back to school 3 years ago, nobody knew about it, not even my colleagues at European Commission. | 18:18:57 |
Pol | I successfully finished in June, you can find my thesis at https://zenodo.org/records/13208605 | 18:19:14 |
piotrkwiecinski | Which languages are you going to use? | 18:19:55 |
Pol | At the very end of June, my manager announce me that the PHP Competency Center, the team where I was working in, was about to be dissolved. That means that nobody is maintaining PHP in my team anymore. | 18:20:05 |
Pol | I had 2 choices | 18:20:10 |
Pol |
- I would stop working for E.C.
| 18:20:23 |
Pol |
- I would find another place where I could develop my skills
| 18:20:33 |
Pol | I chose option 2. | 18:20:41 |
Pol | I'm now an architect, develloping a python backend for a very cool app involving A.I. | 18:21:22 |
Pol | So, exit PHP. | 18:21:29 |
Pol | Welcome Python. | 18:21:53 |
