A bit of fall color as seen from our patio, looking out into the central courtyard area:
It is a beautiful time of year around here: the weather is cool but not cold, the fall colors have started showing, and the local farmer’s markets are a riot of pumpkins and apples.
It seems pretty obvious that the designers of php5’s object orientation support were drawing their inspiration from Java in a lot of ways. Still, there are some lurking surprises if you come from that background. One of these days I should catalog them. In particular I recall that most of them had to do with the “type decorator/attribute” things like static and protected and so on.
Went to bed early, woke up after only five and a half hours of sleep though. Probably about to go back to bed for another few hours, but while I was up I had the urge to tinker, so this blog was born. I don’t know if any of the other users of the site will ever be interested in being authors here, but I’m a bit tired of the short-form constraints placed on updates to Facebook (to say nothing of their privacy record) and LiveJournal is … pretty much dead, sad to say. If not dead, then certainly pining for the Fjords. Maybe most people find 140/420 characters enough to fully express their thoughts, and admittedly often that is enough, but every now and then it seems like you should let your thoughts spread their wings and fly a little.
Welcome to the inaugural post on this weblaeg! See the about page for more info about this site.
