In this article we'll take a look at some of the benefits of procedural programming in PHP, and in general, and what you need to do in order to do it well. https://unixdigest.com/articles/procedural-programming-in-php.html
It's easy to determine if you really need the object-oriented paradigm, you just need to look for the things that you can only do with object-oriented programming and then ask yourself whether you really need that. It's called "The Three Pillars of Object-Oriented Programming". If you don't use all three at the same time, then you're not doing object-oriented programming and you don't need it. https://unixdigest.com/articles/how-do-i-know-if-i-really-need-object-oriented-programming.html
In my last couple of articles I have been talking about the problems with object oriented programming theory and implementation, and I have been talking about the problems with frantic focusing on software testing. In this article I'm almost not going to say anything, I'll just recommend a really good talk for you :) https://unixdigest.com/articles/straight-forward-problem-solving-mentality.html
Have you ever thought about developing some type of application from the ground up while people are telling you that you shouldn't do it, and that it is difficult, and that you shouldn't reinvent the wheel, etc.? Guess what, what you shouldn't do is to listen to such people! https://unixdigest.com/articles/dont-be-afraid-to-code-it-yourself.html
Code testing is not only great, it is a MUST as you cannot develop software without testing your code. However, there is something which I like to call "frantic code testing", which is what I believe needs to be avoided. https://unixdigest.com/articles/stop-being-frantic-about-code-testing.html
Whether we deal with technology, religion, science, or any other subject, nothing has ever been more harmful to the human race, both generally and individually, than people submitting to social conformity rather than use the gift of their intellect! https://unixdigest.com/articles/stop-submitting-to-social-conformity-and-use-your-brain-instead.html
Is it even possible to stay sane in today's world of tech? Well, both yes and no :) https://unixdigest.com/articles/how-to-stay-sane-in-todays-world-of-tech.html
The name SQLite is a nice name, but the "lite" part is misleading, it sounds like it is only useful for tiny things - which is very wrong. SQLite should be named AwesomeSQL, because that is what it is. SQLite is probably the only database you will ever need in most cases. https://unixdigest.com/articles/sqlite-the-only-database-you-will-ever-need-in-most-cases.html
It is extremely disappointing to watch people cheer in ignorance at having their FOSS work and time exploited by one of the largest and crookiest companies in the world (GitHub, i.e. Microsoft), but you also need to understand something else, if you're into programming, using GitHub Copilot will eventually turn you into a bad programmer! https://unixdigest.com/articles/using-github-copilot-will-turn-you-into-a-bad-programmer.html
