I'm on the Google side of the equation. I think the title is a bit sensationalized, but that's the author's prerogative.


When are we going to be able to run sandboxed php code?


You can run PHP in ChatGPT Code Interpreter today if you upload the right binary (also Deno and Lua and more): https://til.simonwillison.net/llms/code-interpreter-expansio...


We could, it's just not high up on the priority list. Any particular reason you want php?


Possibly they are mildly insane


>75% of the web's server-side code is php. most of that is WordPress, but lots of people customize it, and being able to write your own themes, plugins, etc is a big deal


Next step is gemini hosting Personal Home Pages.


Why would you want to run anything else?


> but that's the author's prerogative

You submitted this.


I submitted this HN link with a title that exactly matches the one on the article, but I didn't write the title on the article. AFAIK HN posts should match the title of the article they link to.


Actually the rule is designed to let you correct misleading titles:

"Please use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait; don't editorialize." - https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html

I've done that now (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43509103).

I appreciate your scruples though! Because even though you would have been on the right side of HN's rules to correct a misleading (and/or linkbait) title, the fact that you work for Google would have opened you to the usual gotcha attacks about conflict of interest. This way we avoided all of that, and it's still a good submission and thread!


Thank you very much dang!


Can you run the country too?


Dang, you are cool. :)


> AFAIK HN posts should match the title of the article they link to.

I am not aware of such rule's existence.

Also "should" not "must."

To be clear: I don't have a problem with you submitting this, but the title appears to be completely false.


From the HN guidelines:

> Otherwise please use the original title, unless it is misleading or linkbait; don't editorialize.

Arguably this is misleading or clickbait, but safer to err on the side of using the original title.


Even better, OP shared something OP didn’t write but thought it was interesting.
