Tool for everything does nothing really good.

~3% performance gains. I didn’t understood part about $this.

If the closure doesn't use $this (an instance of the current class) then it doesn't need to store a reference to it, which also skips the bookkeeping from the garbage collector.

In PHP, closures defined inside a class method automatically capture `$this`, which means the closure holds a reference to the entire object even if it never uses it. This prevents the object from being garbage collected and adds overhead. The optimization detects when `$this` isn't actually used and makes the closure static automatically, dropping that unnecessary reference.

Why postgre instead of classic mysql?

MySQL does not let you have transactional DDL statements (alter, create, index etc).

If you're building anything serious and your data integrity is important, use Postgres.

Postgres is much stricter, and always was. MySQL tried to introduce several strict modes to mitigate the problems that they had, but I would always recommend to use Postgres.

such apps should use sqlite. it's enough for this type of app.

Why mysql instead of postgres should be the right question nowadays.

MySQL or Postgres are the DB of choice if you want a managed database in the cloud.

Probably Postgres is there because you can use it as a queue (https://livebook.manning.com/book/just-use-postgres/chapter-...)

Postgres isn't a newcomer any more. For most projects that I see it's the default and the "classic" already.

Postgres is simply a battle proven technology.

Exactly. Thank you for choosing Postgres for this. Well done.

Vote with wallet. The voting continues until product improve or die.

Disagree. I use codex extensively. It just works so well with vscode and python. Claude with ridiculous limits - thanks no. For some even xAI is good fit.

Grok makes sense if you want s.th. less censored that is not biased towards woke ideology.

I don't see how this matters for coding though. I only use it to give me a summary of recent news (so I don't have to actually read the bs newspapers and X posts myself).

Could you name a few places to find 3rd party content?

It's under the "add-ons" menu in game. I would recommend playing the top-ranked campaigns. Some amazing stuff in there. I adore Legend of the Invincibles. Fun story, tons of new gameplay mechanics.

There was (still is?) a Middle East themed campaign with just absolutely gorgeous artwork.

Last time I checked there was an option on the main menu to download user-made campaigns.

There's a "addons" browser in the game.

For some reason it was hard to read and comprehend.

Just like the title

12 minute read without a clear indication of what it’s about. No thanks.

Coding agents make this much less important.

"Trusted user" also can be an Agent.
