This thread is already 8 hours old, but the advice should also be classified by how long the commenter has been using their methods.
A person who has a couple years (or less) organizing their files and folders is very different from someone who used their methods for 10+ years and didn't lose the data.
Speaking of losing data, having a working backup/restore strategy is a critical part of a workable organization method.
Questions for PHP, and MySQL folks (not meant in a negative way):
- PHP: A few years ago I heard about how PHP was needlessly complex. I wonder what the recent status of the programming language is. Specifically, do experienced PHP programmers stick to a subset of PHP, as in "PHP: The good parts"? (similar to "Javascript: The good parts"). (side note: As a diehard python person frustrated due to latest versions becoming bloated in features, I fully acknowledge that I'm in the "Python: The good parts" camp right now).
- MySQL is owned by a company lately. I wonder if PostgresQL is clearly a better alternative?
what is this bs?
