First came Patreon ... then I added GitHub Sponsors. Neither has _really_ done that much for me.

Instead I set up my own donation page on my own site: https://ttmm.io/donations/support-my-work/

If you benefit from or enjoy my work, please consider a small monthly contribution.

I've lived here for 8 years and just discovered this in the closet... It's plugged in with exposed wires, so I'm nervous.

Any thoughts as to what it could be?

I'm looking for examples folks might have of running a web server via PHP CLI. I've always used PHP-FPM or and Apache module, but both are explicitly incompatible with the Parallel extension for PHP.

That's cool, but I have a legit reason to spawn a thread and want to combat the stated problems of using multithreading in a webserver application.

So any examples of `php sever.php` spawning a full server app would be super welcome.

Not as fast as last year at this time. But feels good to be out again.

According to the toddler, cookies with coconut in them are "icky gross" so today we made strawberry vanilla cupcakes to replace them.

Filed taxes. Ugh.

So thankful for the social services this bill ultimately provides, tho.

Saturday morning is baking time with the toddler. Today: coconut madelines!

Never will I ever understand what goes through someone's head when they're scheduled for a TWO HOUR panel interview and just don't show up because they've decided to take another opportunity.

Good on you for landing a role. But have some respect and cancel. Don't just ghost it.

My 3yr old discovered a discarded Nerf gun in a drawer yesterday.

I am scared.

It's also a remarkably simple kit. The "concentrated wort extract" is as close to "just add water" as you can get to home brewing.

If this goes well I might try a few more batches. But would love to (some day) do the whole thing from scratch, too.

I got a Mr Beer kit for Christmas and started on my first batch today. In 2 weeks I'll know if I screwed it up or not.

I'm super excited and nervous all at once.

Tonight's dinner: mushroom zucchini chicken atop a bed of toasted quinoa.

I write PHP. I manage security for a living. I have a not-yet-fully-launched business.

My goal for 2021 is to pivot.

Taking inquiries now for security-focused PHP code audits. Ping me if you're interested.

Ooh look, Mastodon v3.3.0. Nice to meet you! :-)

Happy before-the-weekend-server-maintenance-day!

Getting really weird followers and notes on here lately. It's almost as if a bunch of folks were kicked out of some other microblog/social network and have been looking for a place to route their toxicity.

So glad I'm in control of moderation and can just globally block them ...
