  • "as a rule, regulation is acquired by the industry and is designed and operated primarily for its benefit." http://n.pr/bsP13Z #
  • For me, this also means that the model should not manipulate the database at all; at most, it should provide table and field names #
  • The controller should be totally agnostic of model and view, besides expecting to find data/templates in a certain place. #
  • My approach to MVC: model is only structural data, not functional code; view only contains HTML/CSS/JS, no PHP. #

  • WordPress hosted blogs would benefit from a PHP-less template system – more customizable for users without worrying about arbitrary code. #
  • I was told by a professor a few months ago that compilers would be dead, were it not for parallel processing. Exciting to see LLVM around. #
  • What motivated Google to try the background-image feature in the first place? #

  • I'm reading up on HTML5 to prepare for The Future. The "ping" attribute is interesting, here's a good discussion: http://bit.ly/aTXLXZ #
  • Had fun on the radio (WSUM) last night. Yesterday was a freak-carnival and dubstep day. Today, I'm going to try out hyperdub on lastfm. #
  • Disappointing that Office 2011 for Mac will be 32-bit only. MS is missing a chance to improve their product in a big way. #

  • There are lots of ways to make forms (none of which I'm happy with) but not many ways to modify forms without breaking data AFAIK. #
  • I'm working on a new form structuring/validation system in PHP. But… do we need more tools to construct/represent forms, or modify them? #

  • The distinction for me is between using people to gain money (Dan Kennedy) and serving people effectively (David Allen, Stephen Covey). #
  • David Allen and Stephen Covey draw a line between effectiveness (people) and efficiency (tasks). Dan Kennedy doesn't seem to. #
  • I favorited a YouTube video — Sister Nancy – BAM BAM http://youtu.be/qXnT3LFTc-s?a #

PHP links of the day

Here are two helpful pages I discovered working today:

RFC 822 compliant email validator for PHP: http://www.iamcal.com/publish/articles/php/parsing_email/

A bunch of handy regular expressions: http://www.roscripts.com/PHP_regular_expressions_examples-136.html
(I’m using the currency regular expressions, but they all look handy)
