Web Wash: Drupal Canvas vs WordPress Gutenberg: Block Editor Comparison
Both WordPress and Drupal, with Canvas, let you build pages from blocks and components instead of using just a text area. But the way they go about it is very different.
The two editors look similar, but they work in opposite ways. The easiest way to see the difference is to build the same thing in both. In the video, we build a hero component twice: first as a custom Gutenberg block, then as a Drupal Single Directory Component (SDC).
First we look at the main difference between the two editors. Then we build the hero as a Gutenberg block. Then we build the same hero as a Drupal SDC.

Planet PHP
ezSystems are classy folks

Last week I helped the folks at ezSystems debug some APC problems they were having. The problems ended up being a 64bit architecture problem (they have uber-fast Opterons) and the bug is now fixed in 2.0.3.
Today I received Python & XML from them (off my Amazon wishlist). Thanks guys!
On a side note, my wishlist seems borked. The list I get when I search on my email address or name is not the same one I can edit when I log into the site.

PHP april fools...
1st of April 2004 get's to it's end and I guess it's time, to summarize the recent April fools a bit. Not that I think anyone in the world believes in them, but some were quite funny:
1. Changes to case sensitivity in PHP.
Alan Knowles announced that PHP will change to the studlyCase API and therefor will get everything broken by changing established functions.
2. IBM takes over Zend.
Myself hacked a little article about IBM taking over Zend to make PHP a compete of Java.
3. The first PHP virus has been seen.
Wasn't there one last year, too?
4. PHP has been overtaken by Micro$oft.
Mhhh... a little bit unreliable, if they had been taken over by IBM this morning... Maybe one should first look, what others wrote...
5. And finally, PHP4 and 5 showed their real faces...
Take a look at a phpinfo() output!
I guess I missed some, so feel free to comment on this entry, if you found another!

PHP Virus Attacking Web Hosts
Symantec have a report of the virus here. I've yet to see any of the PHP news sites picking up on it but, using a virtual host account, managed to deliberately expose some PHP scripts to it. From examining the infected scripts, what's disturbing is once infected, every tim...
