the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Kokubunji, 2024.11.13

When I wrote the content management system that powers this website, 'public' was either not a reserved word or its use was not enforced. But now it is. And I've discovered through some weird results showing up in this journal, that I was using a variable named '$public'. Thanks, PHP.
