Topeka City Manager Stephen Wade's battle with depression and mental illness came to a head in June when he attempted suicide. Wade was a "hometown" boy done good and was only about 10 months into his tenure as city manager. After being placed on indefinite leave with pay, he would be shockingly terminated for cause about a month later.    In the aftermath of his dismissal, Wade opted to courageously share his mental health struggles publicly by granting an interview with the Topeka Capital-Journal. After reading that article I contacted Stephen and invited him to be a guest on the show, which he graciously agreed to do.   This episode features a raw, intimate, and unfiltered look at mental health, suicide, and the extreme stress and pressures city managers must endure as they lead a city and attempt to keep multiple bosses (e.g., elected officials) and stakeholder groups happy.   SHOW NOTES: During the interview, Stephen cited two sources of help that may be of value to you. This includes: The Spoon Theory by Christine Miserandino, and Damon Parker and "The Jones Project"   SUPPORT THE PODCAST: If you like the show and enjoy the content, please take a moment to leave a rating AND a review on Apple or your preferred platform. It really does mean a lot to me and gives me a lot of motivation to continue producing content for the podcast. It is a lot of work and very time consuming.  Thank you!

On the show this week, “Beardwatch” is back with a heartfelt apology from Mark to Haig (0:26). What can China take away from its dominance at the Paralympic Games (2:52)? Various factors contributed to this, including a fine performance from the Chinese team (3:35) and the absence of Russian and Belarusian competitors (4:15). But there's more: top American Paralympian Oksana Masters implied a Chinese competitor was not “honest,” and we explain why (5:10), accusations of “classification doping” (6:35), and the surprise factor of the Chinese athletes, many of whom had not competed internationally prior to these Games (9:46).Next, the wife of Viktor Ahn — a South Korean-born Russian short-track speed skater and coach of the Chinese team — got into trouble after her cosmetics company listed Taiwan as a country. Cue angry netizens in China (story on SupChina here) (11:10). These reactions are just so tiresome, but they're not going away (12:00). Parallels between Hollywood movies and professional sports in China: the prospect of earning lots of money versus dealing with a very touchy superpower — is it worth it (14:05)?Then we talk about a piece by Stephen Wade of the Associated Press about the outdated notion of political neutrality in sports in which he calls out the hypocrisy of the stated goal of separating sports and politics (16:58). The IOC and their sponsors say they like to focus on the athletes, not the countries, but if you take away the nationalist elements — such as the flags — then the Olympics as a concept are finished (18:48). A nine-year-old statement by IOC President Thomas Bach breaks Haig's head (20:30), and will a Cold War mentality bring back real, as opposed to diplomatic, boycotts (22:20)?See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

There has always been fascination with crime, deviance and punishment; from the days of the highwayman to the Luddites and in the foul deeds of Peter Sutcliffe. Add to that, the continuing allure of the unsolved case, which has long provided material for true crime and fiction writers. In Stephen Wade's casebook, Murder in Mind he looks at his favourite investigations in his home county of Yorkshire, rich with villainous acts, painstaking investigations and outright injustices. Read about Leeds' most notorious female killer Louie Calvert and why he believes her conviction and hanging could have been a travesty; famous hangmen, Chartist rebels, and the many cases open to fresh investigation such as those of Bill o' Jacks, Mr Blum and Emily Pye. Murder in Mind brings together Stephen's journeys into the criminal underworld, including his work as a writer in prisons and his research in the murder archives as he attempts to uncover and understand why such heinous acts are committed. The basis for this book was created in the `Yorkshire Ripper' years, when the impact of that series of murders sparked the crime writer in him and his tutor, Stanley Ellis, worked on the notoriously misleading `Ripper Tapes.' Since then Stephen has written over 70 non-fiction titles - many of them on the history of crime and the law - but this is something different, a mixture of memoir, reflection and the realisation that murder often happens down the street.Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/houseofmysteryradio.

PHP Internals News: Episode 71: What didn’t make it into PHP 8.0? London, UK Thursday, November 19th 2020, 09:34 GMT In this episode of "PHP Internals News" we're looking back at all the RFCs that we discussed on this podcast for PHP 7.4, but did not end up making the cut. In their own words, the RFC authors explain what these features are, with your host interjecting his own comments on the state of affairs. The RSS feed for this podcast is https://derickrethans.nl/feed-phpinternalsnews.xml, you can download this episode's MP3 file, and it's available on Spotify and iTunes. There is a dedicated website: https://phpinternals.news Transcript Derick Rethans 0:15 Hi, I'm Derick, and this is PHP internals news, a weekly podcast dedicated to demystifying the development of the PHP language. This is Episode 71. At the end of last year, I collected snippets from episodes about all the features that did not make it into PHP seven dot four, and I'm doing the same this time around. So welcome to this year's 'Which things were proposed to be included into PHP 8.0, but didn't make it. In Episode 41, I spoke with Stephen Wade about his two array RFC, a feature you wanted to add to PHP to scratch an itch. In his own words: Steven Wade 0:52 This is a feature that I've, I've kind of wish I would have been in the language for years, and talking with a few people who encouraged. It's kind of like the rule of starting a user group right, if there's not one and you have the desire, then you're the person to do it. A few people encouraged to say well why don't you go out and write it? So I've spent the last two years kind of trying to work up the courage or research it enough or make sure I write the RFC the proper way. And then also actually have the time to commit to writing it, and following up with any of the discussions as well. Steven Wade 1:20 I want to introduce a new magic method the as he said the name of the RFC is the double underscore to array. And so the idea is that you can cast an object, if your class implements this method, just like it would toString; if you cast it manually, to array then that method will be called if it's implemented, or as, as I said in the RFC, array functions will can can automatically cast that if you're not using strict types. Derick Rethans 1:44 I questioned him on potential negative feedback about the RFC, because it suggested to add a new metric method. He answered: Steven Wade 1:53 Beauty of PHP is in its simplicity. And so, adding more and more interfaces, kind of expands class declarations enforcement's, and in my opinion can lead to a lot of clutter. So I think PHP is already very magical, and the precedent has been set to add more magic to it with seven four with the introduction of serialize and unserialize magic methods. And so for me it's just kind of a, it's a tool. I don't think that it's necessarily a bad thing or a good thing it's just another option for the developer to use Derick Rethans 2:21 The RFC was not voted on and a feature henceforth did not make it into PHP eight zero. Derick Rethans 2:27 Operator overloading is a topic that has come up several times over the last 20 years that PHP has been around as even an extension that implements is in the PECL repository. Jan Bøhmer proposed to include user space based operator overloading for PHP eight dot zero. I asked him about a specific use cases: Jan Böhmer 2:46 Higher mathematical objects like complex numbers vectors, something like tensors, maybe something like the string component of Symfony, you can simply concatenate this string object with a normal string using the concat operator and doesn't have to use a function to cause this. Most basically this should behave, similar to a basic string variable or not, like, something completely different. Derick Rethans 3:16 For some issues raised during the RFC process and Jan explains to the most notable criticisms. Jan Böhmer 3:21 First of all, there are some principles of operator overloading in general. So there's also criticism that it could be used for doing some very weird things with operator overloading. There was mentioned C++ where the shift left shift operator is used for outputting a string to the console. Or you could do whatever you want inside this handler so if somebody would want to save files, or modify a file in inside an operator overloading wouldn't be possible. It's, in most cases, function will be more clear what it does. Derick Rethans 4:01 He also explained his main use case: Jan Böhmer 4:04 Operator overloading should, in my opinion, only be used for things that are related to math, or creating custom types that behave similar to build types. Derick Rethans 4:15 In the end, the operator overloading RFC was voted on. But ultimately declined, although there was a slim majority for it. Derick Rethans 4:24 In Episode 44, I spoke with Máté Kocsis about the right round properties RFC and asked him what the concept behind them was. He explained: Máté Kocsis 4:33 Write once properties can only be initialized, but not modified afterwards. So you can either define a default value for them, or assign them a value, but you can't modify them later, so any other attempts to modify, unset, increment, or decrement them would cause an exception to be thrown. Basically this RFC would bring Java's final properties, or C#'s read only properties to PHP. However, contrary to how these languages work, this RFC would allow lazy initialization, it means that these properties don't necessarily have to be initialized until the object construction ends, so you can do that later in the object's lifecycle. Derick Rethans 5:22 Write once properties was not the only concept that he had explored before writing this RFC. We discussed these in the same episode: Máté Kocsis 5:31 The first one was to follow Java and C# and require all right, once properties to be initialized until the object construction ends, and this is what we talked about before. The counter arguments were that it's not easy to implement in PHP, the approach is unnecessarily strict. The other possibility is to let unlimited writes to these properties, until object construction ends and then do not allow any writes, but positive effect of this solution is that it plays well with bigger class hierarchies, where possibly multiple constructors are involved, but it still has the same problems as the previous approach. And finally the property accessors could be an alternative to write once properties. Although, in my opinion, these two features are not really related to each other, but some say that property accessors could alone, prevent some unintended changes from the outside, and they say that maybe it might be enough. I don't share this sentiment. So, in my opinion, unintended changes can come from the inside, so from the private or protected scope, and it's really easy to circumvent visibility rules in PHP. There are quite some possibilities. That's why it's a good way to protect our invariance. Derick Rethans 7:02 In the end this RFC was the client, as it did not wait to two thirds majority required with an even split between the proponents and the opponents. Derick Rethans 7:11 Following on from Máté's proposal to add functionality to our object orientation syntax. I spoken Episode 49 with Jakob Givoni on a suggested addition COPA, or in full: contact object property assignments Jakob explains why he was suggesting to add this. Jakob Givoni 7:28 As always possible for a long time why PHP didn't have object literals, and I looked into it, and I saw that it was not for lack of trying. Eventually I decided to give it a go with a different approach. The basic problem is simply to be able to construct, populate, and send an object in one single expression in a block, also called inline. It can be like an alternative to an associative array: you give the data, a well defined structure, the signature of the data is all documented in the class. Derick Rethans 8:01 Of course people abuse associative arrays for these things at the moment, right. Why are you particularly interested in addressing this deficiency as you see it? Jakob Givoni 8:11 Well I think it's a common task. It's something I've been missing as I said inline objects, obviously literals for a long time and I think it's a lot of people have been looking for something like this. And also it seemed like it was an opportunity that seemed to be an fairly simple grasp. Derick Rethans 8:28 I also asked them what the main use case for this was. Jakob Givoni 8:32 Briefly, as I mentioned, they're data transfer objects, value objects, those simple associative arrays that are sometimes used as argument backs to constructors when you create objects. Some people have given some examples where they would like to use this to dispatch events or commands to some different handlers. And whenever you want to create, populate, and and use the object in one go, COPA should help you. Derick Rethans 9:04 COPA did also not make it into PHP eight with the RFC being the client nearly unanimously. The proposals by both Máté and Jakob where meant to improve PHP object syntax by helping out with common tasks. The implementation ideas of what they were trying to accomplish were not particularly lined up. This spurred on Larry Garfield to write a blog post titled: object ergonomics, which are discussed with him in Episode 51. I first asked him why he wrote this article: Larry Garfield 9:33 As you said, there's been a lot of discussion around improving PHP's general user experience of working with objects in PHP, where there's definitely room for improvement, no question. And I found a lot of these to be useful in their own right, but also very narrow, and narrow in ways that solve the immediate problem, but could get in the way of solving larger problems later on down the line. I went into this with an attitude of: Okay, we can kind of piecemeal attack certain parts of the problem space, or we can take a step back and look at the big picture and say: All right, here's all of the pain points we have, what can we do that would solve, not just this one pain point, but let us solve multiple pain points with a single change, or these two changes together solve this other pain point as well, or, you know, how can we do this in a way that is not going to interfere with later development that we talked about. We know we want to do, but hasn't been done yet. Are we not paint ourselves into a corner by thinking too narrow. Derick Rethans 10:40 The article mentions many different categories and possible solutions. I can't really sum these up in this episode because it would be too long. Although, Larry did not end up proposing RFC based on this article, it can be called responsible for constructor property promotions, which I discussed with Nikita Popov in Episode 53 and Named Arguments which are discussed with Nikita in Episode 59. Both of these made it into PHP 8.zero and cover some of the same functionality that Jakob's COPA RFC covered. I will touch on the new features that did make it into PHP 8.0 in next week's episode. There are two more episodes where discuss features that did not make it into PHP eight zero, but these are still under discussion and hence might make it into next year's PHP eight dot one. In Episode 57, I spoke with Ralph Schindler about his conditional code flow statements RFC. After the introduction, I asked what he specifically was wanting to introduce. Ralph Schindler 11:36 This is, you know, it's, it's very closely related to what in computer science is called a guard clause. And I used that phrase lightly when I originally brought it up on the mailing list but it's very close in line to that it's not necessarily exactly that, in terms of the syntax. In terms of like when you speak about it in the PHP code sense, it really is sort of a change in the statement. So putting the return before the if, that's really what it is. So a guard clause, it's important to know what that is is it's a way to interrupt the flow of control Derick Rethans 12:08 Syntax proposals are fairly controversial, and I asked Ralph about his opinions of the type of feedback that he received. Ralph Schindler 12:15 The smallest changes always get the most feedback, because there's such a wide audience for a change like this. Derick Rethans 12:23 The last feature that did not make it into PHP eight zero was property write/set visibility, which I discussed with André Rømcke in Episode 63. I asked him what his RFC was all about: Derick Rethans 12:34 What is the main problem that you're wanting to solve with what this RFC proposes? André Rømcke 12:40 The high level use case is in order to let people, somehow, define that their property should not be writable. This is many benefits in, when you go API's in order to say that yeah this property should be readable. But I don't want anyone else but myself to write it. And then you have different forms of this, you have either the immutable case where you, ideally would like to only specify that it's only written to in constructor, maybe unset in destructor, maybe dealt with in clone and so on, but besides that, it's not writable. I'm not going into that yet, but I'm kind of, I was at least trying to lay the foundation for it by allowing the visibility or the access rights to be asynchoronus, which I think is a building block from moving forward with immutability, read only, and potentially also accessors but even, but that's a special case. Derick Rethans 13:39 At the time of our discussion he already realized that it would be likely postponed to PHP eight dot one as it was close to feature freeze, and the RFC wasn't fully thought out yet. I suspect we'll hear more about it in 2021. With this I would like to conclude this whirlwind tour of things that were proposed but did not make it in. Next week I'll be back with all the stuff that was added to PHP for the PHP eight zero celebrations. Stay tuned.

The cluster has been linked to the city's hotel quarantine program.

El pasado martes moría el tejano de Lubbock Mac Davis. A partir de la mitad de los 60 se le empezó a reconocer como compositor, firmando temas como "Within My Memory" (Glen Campbell) o "Somethin's Burnin" (Kenny Rogers & The First Edition). Pero, además, fue el autor de "A Little Less Conversation" y sobre todo de "In The Ghetto" para el especial de televisión de Elvis Presley del 68. En un principio, Mac Davis tituló “In The Ghetto” como "The Vicious Circle" y se la presentó a Sammy Davis Jr. en un estudio junto a otros miembros de la comunidad negra. Su propio compositor la grabó de esta forma con la que hemos abierto hoy nuestro tiempo de radio después del tremendo éxito de Elvis en 1969. Sin embargo, la versión original no salió a la luz hasta aparecer en un recopilatorio de 1991 titulado Golden Throats, cuando el artista tejano ya tenía una seria consideración en el terreno del country. Mac Davis era un nativo de la tejana ciudad de Lubbock, que comenzó su carrera artística sin demasiado éxito a comienzos de los años 60. Pasaría después a ejercer de ejecutivo discográfico, un trabajo que le llevó a Los Angeles, donde comenzaría a ejercer de compositor. Como solista, dejó éxitos como "Baby Don't Get Hooked On Me", "Stop and Smell the Roses" y de manera muy especial "Texas In My Rear View Mirror", de tintes autobiográficos. Willie Nelson vuelve a dar ejemplo y recupera "Vote 'Em Out", una canción que exhorta a utilizar la herramienta más poderosa que cualquier ciudadano libre tiene a su disposición: el voto. Y como recuerda, es sagrado y pone el poder en manos de la gente. Está escrita junto a su viejo amigo Buddy Cannon y en ella se encuentra acompañado de Lukas y Micah, animando a sus conciudadanos a que ejerzan su derecho en el Election Day 2020 de Noviembre en Estados Unidos. El arma más grande que tenemos Se llama urna. Así que si no te gusta quién está ahí Vota para echarlo… Palabra de Willie. Terry McBride es de la tejana Austin, hijo de Dale McBride, en cuya banda estuvo tocando, y fue líder de McBride & the Ride, una excelente banda de la primera mitad de los 90 en el terreno del country. Tras disolverse, pasó a ser uno de los compositores más solicitados, especialmente por Brooks & Dunn. Ahora ha decidido grabar en solitario y dar continuidad al EP Hotels & Highways que publicó hace tres años inspirado por los honky-tonks y las salas de baile. Se trata del álbum Rebels & Angels, cuyo tema central lo ha compuesto junto a Chris Stapleton y ha contado, además, con la voz de Patty Loveless, a quien echamos de menos como protagonista de alguna nueva aventura sonora desde hace demasiado tiempo. Terry McBride fue el bajista de Delbert McClinton y, más tarde, trabajó con Lee Roy Parnell y Rosie Flores. Nunca se había puesto al frente de una banda hasta que llegó a Nashville. Su talento como cantante y compositor llamó la atención de Tony Brown, presidente de MCA Nashville y en Junio de 1989, durante la celebración de la desaparecida Fan Fair en Nashville, se creó McBride & The Ride como trío. Debutaron al año siguiente y con su segundo disco, Sacred Ground, del 92 lograron sus mayores éxitos, incluso el segundo puesto de las listas con la canción que les dio título. En TOMA UNO tenemos el compromiso no escrito de compartir pasado, presente y buena parte del futuro de la Americana. Esa es una de las razones por la que estamos anticipando The Highway Kind, el nuevo álbum de la Josh Abbott Band que saldrá al mercado a mediados de noviembre. Desde que se formaron en la Texas Tech University de Lubbock, han pasado a convertirse en una de los más sólidos pilares de la Red Dirt music gracias a canciones en las que su líder refleja situaciones reales y cotidianas que casi siempre tienen que ver con su propia vida. “The Highway Kind” como canción es una de las favoritas de las emisoras tejanas en estas fechas. The Band Of Heathens han sido una de las formaciones más activas en estos tiempos de pandemia. El resultado de su casi frenética actividad se resume ahora en Stranger, un último álbum que aborda el temor existencial de estos momentos con referencias a Albert Camus o a Robert Heinlein. Un tema tan sobresaliente como “Asheville Nashville Austin” ensalza la magia de la carretera en todo su esplendor a través de un tema de medio tiempo convertido casi en un himno sobre los espacios abiertos y los buenos tiempos. Otra de las bandas que ha aprovechado el aislamiento para crear nuevas propuestas sonoras es Drive-By Truckers, que publicará a mediados de diciembre por sorpresa un nuevo álbum, The New OK, aunque está ahora disponible para descarga digital. Una vez más la banda de Athens, en Georgia, ha canalizado sus frustraciones que ya manifestaban en su disco de enero, The Unraveling, y han hecho una selección de las canciones que habían grabado en Memphis los Sun Studios de Memphis en el otoño de 2018, añadiendo un par de temas recién compuesto por Patterson Hood y la inesperada versión de un tema de los Ramones como "The KKK Took My Baby Away", manteniendo esa postura desafiante ante la depresión. “Sarah’s Flame” es una de las deliciosas canciones que ha compuesto Mike Cooley y que nos recuerdan que pudimos haber visto a banda la pasada primavera en nuestro país, pero la Covid-19 lo impidió. Joachim Cooder es un californiano de Santa Monica que también debe soportar el “peso de la púrpura” al ser hijo del legendario Ry Cooder. Joachim, un multi-instrumentista centrado especialmente en la percusión tiene una larga andadura que le han encontrado con nombres de la talla de Mavis Staples, Buena Vista Social Club o Dr. John, entre otros. Ayer mismo, se publicó el tercero de sus discos en solitario, Over That Road I'm Bound: The Songs of Uncle Dave Macon, dedicado a las canciones de Uncle Dave Macon, una figura esencial en el desarrollo de la música de raíces norteamericana, a caballo entre el final del siglo XIX y los primeros años del XX. Uncle Dave Macon, conocido como "Dixie Dewdrop", era un banjista de Tennessee convertido en un pionero seminal, a la altura de Jimmie Rodgers. De hecho, cuando Ralph Peer realizó las famosas sesiones de Bristol, él ya había grabado más de 100 canciones. Fue la primera gran estrella del Grand Ole Opry y eso que comenzó su carrera profesional cuando ya tenía 50 años. Joachim Cooder ha utilizado las tonadas de Uncle Dave Macon como punto de partida, jugando con las letras y reelaborando melodías para su instrumento favorito, la mbira. Originalmente es un instrumento africano que los esclavos llevaron a América y que se suele considerar antecesor del piano. “Come Along Buddy” es una melodía creada por Uncle Dave Macon en 1930, descubierta medio siglo después por Stephen Wade en un acetato de prueba en casa de la familia Macon. Steve Earle compuso una canción como “Times Like These” hace cuatro años manifestando su ansiedad por los tiempos covulsos que se avecinaban, pero recordando que siempre puede haber esperanza a pesar de lo sombrío del presente. "Times Like These" se lanzó en principio como una pieza acústica, pero con motivo de la celebración del último Record Store Day se ha publicado una versión grabada durante las sesiones de su último álbum, Ghost Of West Virginia, realizadas en los Electric Ladyland Studios y en la que Steve Earle está acompañado por los Dukes. Se publicó en single de vinilo el 7 pulgadas siendo una edición limitada a 1300 copias. The Mastersons siguen creciendo como propuesta alternativa y respondiendo a la complejidad de la situación actual. A primeros de año publicaban No Time For Love Songs, un disco con el que volvían a poner el foco en sus propuestas como pareja, contando con la producción de su buen amigo Shooter Jennings. Algunas de las canciones grabadas por entonces quedaron fuera de aquel disco porque parecían precisar su propio espacio. La llegada de la pandemia cambió los planes de un calendario lleno de conciertos y aislados en su casa se motivaron para dedicarse a esos nuevos temas con mayor crudeza que su álbum anterior. El próximo 16 de este mes de octubre, se edita el nuevo EP de los Mastersons, Red, White & I Love You Too. Son cinco canciones que miran de frente al dilema moral sobre qué quiere ser Estados Unidos como nación. “Sensitive Souls” es un buen ejemplo de este Red, White & I Love You Too, que ha sido grabado en el estudio casero de la pareja con el apoyo de Jeff Hill, compañero en los Dukes, en las mezclas. Canciones como “A Change Is Gonna Come” pudieron costarle la vida a Sam Cooke. Fue uno de los primeros que se implicó en la industria musical, formando su propia editora y su sello discográfico Su activismo político se fue acentuando según iba ampliando su fama, no olvidando sus raíces. Su implicación en la defensa de los derechos sociales y en contra del racismo le ganó serios enemigos. “A Change Is Gonna Come” fue compuesta por Sam Cooke después de hablar para los manifestantes que habían protagonizado una sentada en Durham, en el estado de Carolina del Norte, en mayo de 1963. Es evidente que el artista de Clarksdale, en Mississippi, estaba influido por “Blowin' In The Wind” de Bob Dylan, una canción que le gustaba mucho y que, incluso, llegó a grabar. Siempre es reconfortante escuchar una canción como esta, que acaba de ser actualizada por Gary Clark Jr., Brandi Carlile y John Leventhal como un mensaje de esperanza para estos tiempos. Es evidente que la música es un nexo de unión entre distintas generaciones y las hermanas Rebecca y Megan Lovell, que forman Larkin Poe, lo dejan claro en su nueva apuesta sonora, Kindred Spirits, que se va a editar el 20 de noviembre a través de su propio sello Tricki-Woo Records. Se trata de un disco de versiones con guiños a Elton John, Neil Young, The Allman Brothers Band, e incluso los Moody Blues. Kindred Spirits expresa su admiración profunda y agradecimiento por artistas que marcaron el camino en épocas precedentes. De hecho, Larkin Poe, nativas de Calhoun, en Georgia, ya había iniciado hace cinco años una serie de YouTube dedicada a rendir homenaje a sus héroes musicales. "Nights In White Satin" es una de las canciones elegidas. Originalmente formó parte de un álbum coral y emblemático como fue Days Of Future Passed de los británicos Moody Blues. Escuchar audio

An intriguing and sad case this time around on The True Crime Enthusiast Podcast, involving the tale of a macabre discovery in a North East chemical storage plant of a decade old murder at the end of the 1970's, that on the face of it, was a pretty much open and shut case. Except that a pioneering documentary series looked again at it only a few years later, and suggested with some strength - and proof - that it wasn't. This episode contains descriptions of crimes and events that some listeners may find disturbing or upsetting, so discretion is advised whilst listening.

Hobart Smith, the amazing musician we old-time players much admire, learned from sources that placed some of his tunes pre-civil war. Wabash Blues is a tune whose age I don't know, but it's only known to have been recorded by him, which happened in 1963 when Fleming Brown befriended him. Stephen Wade released those recordings of Smith in 2005, "In Sacred Trust," and still enjoys playing this very tune to this day.

Passed down through generations, northern Georgia banjo player Chesley Chancey (1913 - 1980) passed the tune Mulberry Gap from his grandfather on to Stephen Wade in 1979 while Art Rosenbaum recorded it at Chesley's home. He played it in the 2-finger style. I play it in the clawhammer style.

PHP Internals News: Episode 41: __toArray() London, UK Thursday, February 20th 2020, 09:04 GMT In this episode of "PHP Internals News" I chat with Steven Wade (Twitter, GitHub, Website) about the __toArray() RFC. The RSS feed for this podcast is https://derickrethans.nl/feed-phpinternalsnews.xml, you can download this episode's MP3 file, and it's available on Spotify and iTunes. There is a dedicated website: https://phpinternals.news Transcript Derick Rethans 0:16 Hi, I'm Derick. And this is PHP internals news, a weekly podcast dedicated to demystifying the development of the PHP language. Hi, this is Episode 41. Today I'm talking with Stephen Wade about an RFC that he's produced, called __toArray(). Hi, Steven, would you please introduce yourself? Steven Wade 0:35 Hi, my name is Steven Wade. I'm a software engineer for a company called follow up boss. I've been using PHP since 2007. And I love the language. So I wanted to be able to give back to it with this RFC. Derick Rethans 0:48 What brought you to the point of introducing this RFC? Steven Wade 0:50 This is a feature that I've I've kind of wish would have been in the language for years, and talking with a few people who encouraged it's kind of like the rule of starting a user group right? If there's not one and you have the desire, then you're the person to do it. A few people encouraged and say: Well, why don't you go out and write it. So I've spent the last two years kind of trying to work up the courage or research it enough or make sure I write the RFC the proper way, and then also actually have the time to commit to writing it and following up with any of the discussions as well. Derick Rethans 1:18 Okay, so we've mentioned the word RFC a few times. But we haven't actually spoken about what it is about. What are you wanting to introduce into PHP? Steven Wade 1:25 I want to introduce a new magic method. The as he said, the name of the RFC is the __toArray(). And so the idea is that you can cast an object, if your class implements this method, just like it would toString(). If you cast it manually to array then that method will be called if it's implemented. Or as, as I said, in the RFC, array functions will it can it can automatically cast that if you're not using strict types. Derick Rethans 1:49 Oh, so only if it's not strictly typed. So if its weakly typed would call the toArray() method if the function's argument or type hint array. Steven Wade 1:58 Yes, and that is actually something that came up during the discussion period, which is something again, this is why we have discussions, right? Is to kind of solicit feedback on things we don't think about it, we may overlook or, and so someone did point out that it is, you know, it would not function that way, or you would not expect it to be automatically cast for you, if you're using strict types. Derick Rethans 2:17 Okay. Steven Wade 2:18 The RFC has been updated to reflect that as well. Derick Rethans 2:20 So now the RFC says it won't be automatically called just for type hint. Steven Wade 2:24 Correct. Derick Rethans 2:24 Not everybody is particularly fond of magic methods. What would you say about the criticism that introducing even more of them would be sort of counterproductive, because you'll end up not necessarily knowing what happens if you start calling a method, when you do a cost, for example. Steven Wade 2:38 The beauty of PHP is in its simplicity. And so adding more and more interfaces, kind of expands class declarations enforcement's and in my opinion, can lead to a lot of clutter. And so I think PHP is already very magical. And the precedent has been set to add more magic to it with 7.4 with the introduction of serialize and unserialize magic methods, and so for me it's just kind of a, it's a tool. I don't think that it's necessarily a bad thing or a good thing. It's just another option for the developer to use. Derick Rethans 3:06 Two episodes ago, I spoke with Nicolas Grekas about a Stringable interface that he suggested to introduce, which is a little bit similar to sort of the casting with toArray(). And hence, do you think it would have make sense to have an __toArray() also happen if the class implements a interface with a typed function argument? Steven Wade 3:29 I think that would be two separate RFCs. I think the first one to kind of get it on par with what's what we have now in PHP would be to introduce the toArray(). And then a separate one would be if we wanted to follow suit with an arrayable interface. Derick Rethans 3:43 And which is the same thing that happens with the Stringable interface, right? We have had toString() for how many years, decades? But from what I understand, if you have a typed property "string", it would also call the toString() method when it's defined on an object that's being passed in, or do I misunderstand that, there are misremember that? Steven Wade 4:00 I haven't followed that one too closely. I've kind of been catching up on some of the discussion today. But and yeah, I don't know off the top of my head what that would do. Derick Rethans 4:07 I didn't mean with the ori.. with the newly suggested Stringable interface with adults we currently have. Steven Wade 4:12 I'm not sure how that would work. Derick Rethans 4:13 I don't know, either. That's what I'm asking you. Steven Wade 4:15 With the array and with the typed properties? That's a good question. That's again some feedback, we kind of need to that I need to think through Derick Rethans 4:21 Because I think it would make sense to at least behave the same and I don't particularly mind which way it goes. Me that's, that's a personal opinion here. Steven Wade 4:28 And that's a great idea I need to haven't played with 7.4 too much, I need to pull it down and try and just see what the behaviour of string is because that's the main goal of this is to try and just get this on a parity, functionality parity with with what's toString() will do. And so if that is how it handles it with typed properties and I would want to implement that as well. Derick Rethans 4:47 In a similar way. I don't also know what happens if if you have toString() available in a class and you pass it in as an argument that is typed as string. Steven Wade 4:54 Even though at least when my test was weak types, it will actually cast that for you. If you have that. String argument type hint, it will cast it and then that will be a copy. So it will actually just be the result of that cast to string. I do not think I think it throws an error if you have a strict type set. No, I think it'd be very similar, right. It's just how you want to use it in user land, you know, the __toArray() is you're going to you could cast it yourself ,or you can with weak types PHP could cast for you in the appropriate circumstances. If you want the same functionality. In some for now, you would need to call, you know, the __serialize() yourself with the toArray(). In the future, you could implement the toArray() and then your serialize could actually just cast this object to array, and then that should actually convert that for you. And then serialise will then return array so you're not duplicating how you want that object represented when it's an array. Derick Rethans 6:00 So the RFC mentions that when you do a print_r of person is called __toArray(). But that's not particularly a cast. So why would it do it here, but not for method arguments, for example? Steven Wade 6:11 That is a product of this being my first time and that was a mistake that was thankfully pointed out during the discussion period and has been corrected. Derick Rethans 6:19 I read this RFC a week or two ago or so. And I haven't.. I should have reread it this morning that. I did not so my apologies for not being fully up to date here. There's some array functions in PHP like sort() that operate on an array as a reference right? That can't particularly work if you first have to cast to an array, which is what your current RFC now just. I mean, toArray() only gets called when you cast to an array or when it's a weakly typed argument. But how would it work for methods or functions that accept an array by reference? Steven Wade 6:49 At least the way I proposed it, they would throw an error as it currently does. Again for my test and trying to keep this within parity with the toString. I don't believe there are many functions that will operate on toString on, on a string by reference, as there are with arrays. From what I can recall is that it would throw an error. If you try to operate by reference on an object that implements toString, it will throw an error. Derick Rethans 7:10 And it wouldn't just fall back to using an object because that'd be very strange behaviour in that case, I suppose. Steven Wade 7:15 Basically, if it's if it's not something that can be cast or converted to an array through this method, and it's just going to be the same functionality you have in current PHP, which will be throw an error. Derick Rethans 7:24 Going to go for the principle of least astonishment or something. Steven Wade 7:27 Yeah, I don't want to introduce too many changes to it. I just want to be able to cast. Derick Rethans 7:31 I think that is a great idea. Actually, I mean, the same thing I've spoken with Nikita about, that introducing features step by step makes it a lot easier for people to comprehend what you actually end up doing. And there's also less, less chance of people getting bogged down in liking a specific aspect of the RFC but not of the other RFC parts. And we end up not merging the whole thing with the sub part of it. Steven Wade 7:54 And that's why I was very purposeful and not including any kind of write. You write, you cannot write to a class that implements toArray(). You know, as you will with array ArrayObject, because that we have that for a reason. So this is different functionality, we just wanted to keep it small, and just have this little helper Derick Rethans 8:11 I read in the RFC, something called get_mangled_object_vars(), but I didn't quite understand what it was. Steven Wade 8:16 So that was actually a function introduced in 7.4, as a direct result of my original proposal trying to see what people thought in the internals and in the community of this feature. Sometime in spring, last year 2019, I began this discussion, and there was some initial feedback with folks saying that it would cause some breaking changes in their libraries or their code, because they are overloading the casting. Right now, if you cast an object, I guess you get insight into the object's internals without any side effects. And so I think that's how Symfony's var dumper works. And that's how they're able to display some of that information. So that was concern by introducing this, that functionality would break. And so to introduce a method that would give you the same benefits without overloading the casting, the get_mangled_object_vars() was introduced and accepted and implement in 7.4. Derick Rethans 9:04 And that returns the object properties with their special characters in place. Because PHP internally, if you have a private method, the name for both methods and property is done by doing a null character, the name of the class, a null character then the property name. So that's what that would return, I suppose. Steven Wade 9:22 I believe so. Derick Rethans 9:22 I ran into a similar issue in Xdebug, because in some cases, you want to call get_debug_info, which is what people implement for getting debug info for their objects. But in other cases, you don't want to do it because you want to see everything that happens internally, or you want to see all the properties that exist. So there's kind of a tricky one. And I think at some point with toArray also happening, I might actually end up adding the output of both toArray() and get_debug_info separate sort of fake properties into the Xdebug output. But of course that only works if toArray() has no side effects. I don't think there's any way of preventing that in the toArray method that you can now implement that it doesn't change any information in normal properties, for example, right? Steven Wade 10:12 And that's kind of some of the internals of it that I'm not fully familiar with. With it, I'm hoping to kind of, you know, the discussion period will help eliminate some of that. Derick Rethans 10:20 I don't think you'd be able to actually. Steven Wade 10:22 Just recently, we were able to throw an exception from the toString. I don't know if you can actually do any kind of operations, write operations on the object within the toString? I do? That's a good question. And I do look that up. And whatever that behaviour is, we'd want to mimic here as well. Derick Rethans 10:34 I believe you can. It's normal PHP code, right? And if you don't want to do it, you need to clone it first, which is something you could choose as an implementation, right? You could first clone the class and then call the toArray method on the cloned object. I don't think we have any protection for that. The RFC is currently in the discussion phase. At the time of recording, we're talking about the discussion period. When I sort of thinking of ending that and going for vote? Steven Wade 10:58 I think this is actually going to be probably a longer period of discussion. And I think most RFC is most fleshed out just because of the nature of it. I am a full time employee full time, father, husband, and also student, as well. And so I don't have a lot of time to do this. And I want to do it right. I want to be able to respond to this. And so the discussion opened up a week ago, and this morning is the first time I've had to be able to respond to that and update the RFC. And so I because I really care about this and would love this feature to go in. I want to continue to solicit discussion and advice and questions and to be able to answer them all and do that. So however long it takes. Ideally, I would love it to be closed, voted on, accepted and implemented in time to be able to get in for the feature freeze for 8.0. Derick Rethans 11:40 For that you have about four months. Would you have anything else to add that I forgot? Or you want to add that you think it's interesting to know about this RFC? Steven Wade 11:50 Yeah, the only thing I would add is I've seen discussion, someone posted the RFC on Reddit and I've seen discussions with people like it, people hate it. They want to move one way or the other again, it's just It's a small feature, it's a helper. It's a tool that you can use. Is it perfect? No. Is it going to satisfy everybody? No. You've got the people who are want more functional and procedural you got people who want more OOP. I think it's just another helpful tool that could be in your tool belt. If you use it great. If you don't, you don't have to touch it. Derick Rethans 12:19 Very well. Thank you, Steven, for taking the time to talk to me this afternoon. I'm looking forwards on this coming to vote at some point. Steven Wade 12:27 Thank you for having me on the show. And let me explain the purpose and the reasoning behind this RFC. And thank you very much for giving a voice to those looking to improve the language. Derick Rethans 12:35 You're most welcome.

The Grain Project: Stephen Wade. Learn The Greenmarket Regional Grains Project on a brand new episode of Sharp & Hot as Emily Peterson is joined by Stephen Wade and June Russell of Greenmarket NYC. The mission of the Greenmarket Regional Grains Project is to foster a thriving regional grain economy within the local food system, beginning with our network of growers and customers and extending to any farmer, entrepreneur or retailer contributing to its growth throughout the Northeast. Their mission begins at Greenmarket, so they rigidly enforce the rule that Greenmarket bakers’ products must contain at least 15 percent flour grown and milled in the region. But creating a marketplace that supports our mission requires more than just rule enforcement. Learn more on today’s episode of Sharp & Hot!. “Sustainability is a direction, not an end goal.” [7:30] –Emily Peterson on Sharp & Hot “We’re trying to bring grain production back to the Northeast from the ground up.” [19:00] –June Russell on Sharp & Hot

March 27, 2013. Stephen Wade presents a talk related to the research for his recent book, "The Beautiful Music All Around Us: Field Recordings and the American Experience," which takes as its starting point 13 iconic performances captured on Library of Congress field recordings between 1934 and 1942 in locations reaching from Southern Appalachia to the Mississippi Delta and onto the Great Plains. Through decades of research and detective work, musician Stephen Wade tracked down surviving performers and their families, fellow musicians, and community members. Weaving together loving and expert profiles of these performers with the histories of these songs and tunes, Wade brings to life largely unheralded individuals -- farm laborers, state prisoners, school children, cowboys, housewives and mothers, loggers and miners -- whose music has become part of the wider American musical soundscape. By exploring how these singers and instrumentalists exerted their own creativity on inherited forms, "amplifying tradition's gifts," Wade shows how a single artist can make a difference. Speaker Biography: Stephen Wade is an American folk musician, writer and researcher. Growing up in Chicago in the 1950s and '60s, Wade was exposed to a number of vernacular musicians who had moved north to the city from the Mississippi Delta and the Southern Appalachians.

Most of us have read it at one time or another. The small yellow reference guide that tells you what a used car is worth. Well the National Auto Dealers Association has been publishing that book since 1933 but it’s really the only NADA effort that consumers touch. Most times the group is serving the needs of the more than 17,000 new car and truck dealers in the United States. And each year those members elect one of their own to run the organization. In 2011 Stephen Wade, a multiple brand franchisee from Utah has been leading the U.S. dealer body as they fight to survive our fickle economy. This week John McElroy welcomes Mr. Wade to the Autoline studios to hear what’s going on with the retail end of the business. Joining them on the panel are Steve Finlay of Wardsauto.com and Jeff Bennett from the Wall Street Journal.
