• 6 essential PHP development tools slides from IPC/DLW (en)

  by Tobias Schlitt on Fri, 09 Jan 2009 12:34:32 +0100

  A little bit belated, but as promised during the session, I just uploaded my slides from the talk 6 essential PHP development tools in 60 minutes. Since there is so much to say I actually managed to get 4,5 tools through and for all of these it felt to be too few time. I think I should provide a workshop for the next conference [Read full post…]

• Girl Geek Dinner right before IPC/DLW next week (en)

  by Tobias Schlitt on Wed, 19 Nov 2008 23:29:46 +0100

  Next week the Dynamic Languages World conference (aka International PHP Conference Spring Edition) will be held in Karlsruhe, Germany. Nicole organized a Girl Geek Dinner right before the main events start (that means Monday evening). I really like the idea of Girl Geek Dinner, since it's a good attempt to raise the women rate on geek events, which is usually (sadly) extremly low. On the other hand I like to hang around, have some good meal, enjoy a beer and a good technical discussion. Therefore: +1 from my side for Girl Geek Dinner. :) [Read full post…]

• Removed 1100 photos from Flickr (en)

  by Tobias Schlitt on Thu, 20 Nov 2008 12:34:46 +0100

  After some heavy discussions with Kore and others I researched about German law in respect to individual rights on photos yesterday. Thanks to Arne, who gave me a good starting point (German) for my research. In the end, Kore was mostly right with his interpretation, what made me remove about 1100 photos from my Flickr gallery. All of those showing people dedicatedly where I do not feel to have the explicit permission to publish their pictures. I'll try to explain the reasons, my personal issues and possibly solutions in this article. [Read full post…]

• RoR does not scale? (en)

  by Tobias Schlitt on Wed, 19 Nov 2008 23:29:46 +0100

  It's interessting to see more people abandoning Ruby on Rails. Not that I have something against Ruby itself, but it really seems to me that RoR does not scale. Hope Twitter tries with PHP. ;) [Read full post…]

• Human support and feature requests at Xing (en)

  by Tobias Schlitt on Wed, 19 Nov 2008 23:29:46 +0100

  I like Xing. I actually like some of the social networks, although I think there are far to many of them. However, Xing is useful to me for keeping my address book updated by my business contacts themselves and to be up2date about who is doing what. Nice! I'm also a "premium" (in the sense of paying) user in Xing. On the one hand because that gives me some nice additional features and safes me from advertisement. On the other one because I think paying for a good online service is a good idea. [Read full post…]
