Had a literal coding shower moment this morning. A problem I ran into a couple weeks ago that I set aside because I couldn't identify a root cause. And for some reason, I started thinking on it as I stepped into the shower, and realized that everything I'd observed was consistent with resource depletion due to recursion.
Once I got to my computer, I tested my theory, and BINGO! that's what it was.
Time and space, folks: time and space make all problems shallow.

I came to Terry Pratchett via Good Omens, and then went on to read Thud! which was just out in paperback. I continued to devour Discworld, and eagerly awaited each new book. The Shepherd's Crown made me weep when I read it, knowing it was the last.
The past two years and more, I've read to my wife every night, and we've been making our way through Discworld together. We laugh, we weep, we clutch each other in suspense. We're treated to a world we wish was ours.

Alright, now that the flights are purchased... excited to announce my first conference talk in over 4 years. I'll be giving a session on the State of PHP in 2024, derived from the @zend 2024 PHP Landscape Report, at @phptek
Looking forward to seeing old and new friends alike! Look for me at the Zend booth (we're sponsoring!) and say hello!
