Hello 👋. Since you're here, why not follow 😏. Here's a backend developer, a CORE PHP lover and enthusiast 🐘and I love basketball 🏀😎
🚀 Introducing Whisper.php: Local Speech-to-Text in PHP. It brings the power of OpenAI's Whisper through whisper.cpp to PHP, enabling fully local and API-free transcription directly in your projects, with models starting at 32MB!🤩 🧵 Let’s see what makes it awesome:

The custom keyboard experience on iPhone is actually horrible, clunky and just bad 🤌🏽 Even after uninstalling the default keyboard like people suggested and yet, still the same story. Apple really said "use ours or suffer." 🤧
Some weeks ago, @cviniciussdias reached out asking how he could support my work on TransformersPHP. Thing is, I didn't have GitHub Sponsors setup (Stripe Connect issues) so no sponsor button or easy way to do that. I had to send a virtual USD account manually. He still followed…
Last week, it was Amazon serving us Kiro, and this week, we have GitHub Spark 😳 Its getting so hard to keep up mehnn 😫
On my birthday, I dropped a sneak peak of my Crochet works. I’m not very used to the fashion and crafts angle of X. Well, I think it’s time someone starts diving into these waters. Enough of the testing.
Packed schedule!!!! I can see lots of value 🚀🚀

Yeah sure sure. I think the examples you shared are technically valid, but they feel a bit far from how things actually play out in real life. I mean, c'mon...no one's really writing Core PHP apps like that (I hope so 😅)...not without at least a few userland tools. In the…
📣 This JUST got merged in #PHP a few minutes ago! It is currently challenging to deal with recursion in anonymous functions. Not anymore in PHP 8.5: the "Closure::getCurrent()" method fetches the current closure you're in 🚀 PR: github.com/php/php-src/pu… #phptips
Birthday Blessings to me🥰🎊 I’m a year older, a degree hotter, few degrees less Lapo😂, God’s love unending❤️. Don’t forget to mention my name in rooms that matter. This is my birthday request. 🙏 Cheers to me😩🥂 PS: Crochet bag by Aira hooks🧶😌. #happybirthday
He looks like gay? How do gays look like please? 🤣
Growing hair isn’t what’s sinful but he actually looks like gay. The lady did well
Hey #PHP, I don't normally market code, I write and leave it on github for you to find. I can be wrong, I'm happy to be wrong. But I believe, with every ounce of my being, that this is going to be important for our survival in the long term. krakjoe.github.io/ort/ #php #ai

Adim ana village 🤣. Kuoro onwe gi aka 👏🏽
If you don’t know it yet, know it now. We are in serious trouble in this country.
This really came in handy for me today. Simple, sweet and seamless. Thanks again for this 🙏🏽❤️
A common issue I hear from people trying to use Google's oAuth flow is that it does not work with local .test sites. I quickly built fwd.host today, which acts as a redirect service. Just append the URL that you want to redirect to.
One underrated perk of using Bruno API Client is how easy it is for AI agents to work with. Since it’s just the filesystem, my AI model could scan my Laravel app and start generating .bru files with requests, docs, tests...basically everything. Cursor picked it up and filled in…

Built with @nativephp . That's crazy 🤯🔥
I'm clueless why @cluely needs $15M to build a meeting app that barely works... Unless they’re running a social media marketing company? in that case, the kids are crushing it. kudos to them! Anyway, I built Clueless - a better, open-source, privacy-first alternative. No…
The pay after doing the jobs feels more satisfying than the pay before doing the job 😂
