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:

Nothing beats dogfooding your own product.

I just have more confidence in a product when I know the people building it actually use it themselves. You notice different things when you’re the user, not just the person shipping features.

@CodeWithKyrian i once talked about dickriding here lol, in the tech space one I don tear MacBook and curved monitor I don sabi pass you be that 💔

[Kyrian Obikwelu @CodeWithKyrian]

@starmandev You gettt. It's too much in this space and it's so exhausting 🤧

"You can appreciate someone's impact and still disagree with their opinions"

This is one thing a lot of Nigerians fail go understand again and again. Your mentor, boss, idolo, someone you look up to, etc, can make mistakes or have opinions that differ from yours, and you can counter that, and still be loyal 🤷

[Technical Ben @TechnicalBben]

The way some Nigerians think is actually weird.

Because Technical Ben has bought four laptops and done a lot for people in the tech space, does that mean he's above criticism?

If he says something wrong or does something you genuinely disagree with, are you supposed to keep quiet because of everything he's done?

You don't have to agree with someone every single time just because they've helped people.

You can appreciate someone's impact and still disagree with their opinions. Both things can be true.

Have your own opinion. If they disagree with you, that's fine. You can both move on.

Helping people doesn't make anyone a god. Nobody deserves blind loyalty.

Claude does not know when to do a Kenburn effect or kinetic typography effect in a motion video.

Claude does not understand hicks law , or user journey.

Claude only gives the illusion of confidence to those who do not know anything and are easily impressed by basics.

Evolving threat 🚨 CVE-2026-111497, previously known to affect Node.js (node2shell) and Python has evolved into “HTTP2Shell.”

A significant blast radius.

This vulnerability leaves many libraries and applications using HTTP vulnerable to pre-auth RCE via Brotli decompression.

Please be aware. Fixes not yet available for all affected services. Look for Brotli (1.2.1) dependency upgrades when they become available.

[Kyrian Obikwelu @CodeWithKyrian]

@sin4ch Send in a feature request for it ASAP.

[Kyrian Obikwelu @CodeWithKyrian]

@sin4ch Still in the same ballpark 🫠

[Kyrian Obikwelu @CodeWithKyrian]

@sin4ch Oh I get now. Fair enough, it's both a great time for SWE and horrible time for SWE depending on how you look at it....and how you end up 😂

A moving man will surely meet his luck, so we keep moving 🚀🚀

[Kyrian Obikwelu @CodeWithKyrian]

@sin4ch I feel so old rn man 😂 😭

If 2024 was wrongest time, what will 2026 now be? 😂 💔 💔

[Kyrian Obikwelu @CodeWithKyrian]

@sin4ch Crazyyy 😂 😂

[Kyrian Obikwelu @CodeWithKyrian]

@sin4ch Yeah 😂. He was a dev educator at PlanetScale as at 2023 and was basically the face of PlanetScale for me and a lot of others.

When he was laid off, people were so so so so so shocked and annoyed...but he rose past it and is doing incredibly well

[Kyrian Obikwelu @CodeWithKyrian]

@OChukwumaihe 😭😭

[Kyrian Obikwelu @CodeWithKyrian]

Guilty as charged 😭
