    Lemmy trolls…

    I’ve been into web-dev since 2007, I’ve been working with corporations who are processing high load traffic, including payment systems. I tell you that 80% of these work with PHP and have no major issues. Valve’s Steam is PHP even, and still does work, right?

    Have you even considered Laravel, and Symfony? Optimizations as OpCode and Jit?

    It all works and is stable. Not only that, but it’s easy to deploy and release since you don’t have to compile it every single time.
    Depending on the team, the code is greatly organized, syntax is featureful and allows for both static and runtime/dynamic safety.

    You, @[email protected]? You might haven’t yet worked in actual enterprise. You should get fundamental knowledge on the subject you raise your voice at.

    I am sorry, but please do invest some accountable time and actually read something about the subject, prior claiming people are idiots and don’t do their own research of almost 40 years of life.

    PHP is a perfectly capable and freaking awesome language for almost any web-dev and is lovely to work with.

    Oh! You might as well ask your “vibes” about the trends/statistics around the globe at enterprise, make some comparisons, or well some valuable research etc. if you are not capable to achieve the same manually, considering your infant attitude to complex systems.

    You do you, indeed.

    P.S. We may wait now for copy-pasted or LLM-generated pros/cons, too, for a sudden “proof” no one asked for.

    Holy gracious smokes… Why don’t people read… and the call people “liers”? How indifferent and echo-chambered you must be to act as these people who “heroically reveal” already known, proving that they have no idea what they are talking about, sorry?

    The “Secret Chat” encryption has been known for at least a decade and more…

    Secret chats are meant for people who want more security than the average fella. All messages in secret chats use end-to-end encryption. This means only you and the recipient can read those messages — nobody else can decipher them, including us here at Telegram. Messages cannot be forwarded from secret chats. You can also order your messages to self-destruct in a set amount of time after they have been read by the recipient. The message will then disappear from both your and your friend’s devices.

    One last difference between secret and ordinary chats in Telegram is that secret chats are not stored in our cloud. You can only access messages in a secret chat from their device of origin.

    Please… please, dear authors of these “reveals”, as @[email protected]… please consider you being tricked by competitors of Telegram who also “reveal” nonsense just for people like you…

    And please… check your sources… make personal researches… stop believing the first “news” you read…

    Meanwhile, please do indeed reveal some respect and self-confidence, and check:

    Thank you, but I do not consider LLM equal to a calculator.

    The latter doesn’t normally have any feedback, and has a constant solid system, where you may always expect the result won’t change in time all of a sudden, and predict it. There’s a circuit and read-only memory of its flashed program looped.

    None of this is true in the context of the former - LLM. Here, an output may change each iterration due to the nature of LLM algorithms as “self-training”. The constant fear of the algorithm “plausible” mistakes, and it confidence in proving those are correct… is… unbearable…

    There is a moment, late at night, when the hospital is quietest. Not silent. A hospital is never silent. There is the beeping and the footsteps and the soft pneumatic sigh of a door closing on the ICU ward. But the administrative floors are dark. The compliance department is dark. The revenue cycle office is dark. The spreadsheets are still running on servers in a windowless room on the second sublevel, but no one is watching them. The spreadsheets do not need to be watched. They do what spreadsheets do.

    I go home. I have a home in a neighborhood where the ambulances do not come often. I have a personal laptop. Sometimes, late, I open it. Not for work. For something else.

    The CMS price transparency portal is public. Anyone can search it. I searched it once. I typed in my own hospital. I typed in a procedure I had last year — a routine thing, nothing serious, the kind of thing a man my age gets checked. I found the chargemaster price. I found the negotiated price my executive plan paid. I found the cash-pay price.

    The cash-pay price was eleven times what my plan paid. For the same room. The same machine. The same technician who called me “sir” because she had seen my badge and knew my title.

    I closed the laptop. I did not search again.
