He is a self taught Python programmer, it is by far his favorite programming language.</p> <p>TALK 2: What PHP learned from Python</p> <p>By Adam Harvey</p> <p>In 2015, the PHP project released version 7.0 of the PHP language. An advantage PHP had was that Python had gone through a similar process with Python 3 seven years earlier. I’ll discuss the lessons taken from the Python 2-3 transition, and how they were applied.</p> <p>Adam is a software developer who has worked on a number of interesting and occasionally even useful things in his two decade career. These include prototyping the worst mesh network of all time (based on Android phones), discovering how to reliably lock up a Windows computer by writing an in-browser video editor, and (most usefully) removing the original mysql_* API from PHP.</p> <p>Today he works at New Relic on their PHP and C language support.</p> <p>Join us on our python.org mailing list (<a href="http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/portland">http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/portland</a>) and on #pdxpython on Freenode.
