Pick a password longer than 72 bytes and PHP's default hash keeps only the first 72, so a shortened password still logs you in. An RFC wants PHP to refuse instead, and the list can't agree it's worth the break. youtu.be/3Hp0E0SbusM #PHP #PHPInternals #PHP87

nothing prepares you for a database migration you think a query builder or db-agnostic layer keeps you safe for the future. it doesn't every db is different internally. stuff is either unsupported or behaves differently
