@heystevebauman Story of my life.

@femiuniq @SnrLawLord @porsiee I said “can be enough”(not “is enough”), and I also put the caveat of not having tuition fees to pay.

Meanwhile, I live in the UK, so I’m speaking from direct experience with the reality here, not from ignorance.

@SnrLawLord @porsiee 20hrs per week can be enough for a student that has no tuition fees to pay.

The Laravel AI SDK and MCP package now have MCP client support. This means you can connect your Laravel agents to a real MCP server with minimal code.

Spin up the client, then spread its tools right into your agent's 𝚝𝚘𝚘𝚕𝚜() array.

Now your agent can open issues, review PRs, and search repos - alongside your own tools. 🤝

absolutely love when company websites do this

i was just on @bento trying to grab their logo, and when i right-clicked it, they pointed me to a brand guidelines page with all the logos, assets, etc

such a nice little touch

@Izustic_ @Donjaytrix001 This is not true.

If you’re going to posture as something you’re not, at least get it right. Otherwise, pretending to be more than you are will do more harm than good to you.

On the other hand, approach things you’re not solid in as someone willing to learn. Be open to correction. You learn, others learn, and you avoid unnecessary embarrassment.

[BJTheCod3r @BJTheCod3r]

@bigbrutha_ You’re right about what the expectation should be at senior level, but it’s rarely the reality. You probably know this too, so suggesting that the OP is a liar feels unfair.

@Paullo19Paul @engr_abiodun_ Did you watch the video? You just made the point of the clip.

@YahayaDorathy @CorrectBabie In Yoruba culture, babies that come out like that are called Òké.

@dejackoj2 @KingReezy69 @vslkemo You came to that conclusion all by yourself. Did the dead guy tell you that he believed that?

[BJTheCod3r @BJTheCod3r]

You didn’t exactly say “I don’t think”, but let’s leave that.

Your take made it sound like Laravel would only be seen in legacy codebases if we’re considering the age of the codebase. However, that take is wrong.

Laravel has been actively maintained since its release back in 2011. And you would know this if PHP/Laravel is part of the tools you actively use. As a matter of fact, for the last 8 years I’ve worked within teams that use either solely Laravel or as part of the stacks that we use.

This is exactly why I believe we shouldn’t comment on things we are not sure about, except when we’re trying to learn.

[BJTheCod3r @BJTheCod3r]

@haki_xer @thoniahilary You shouldn’t comment on things authoritatively if you don’t have sufficient knowledge.

From idea to a new @laravelphp app?
The new @getpolyscope version makes this easier than ever.

Just provide your idea, select "New Laravel App" and you're good to go.

"laravel new" on steroids

I lived in Japan for a year. Most of my experiences were exhausting in ways I’d rather not get into, but this one still makes me laugh.

I was on the train in Osaka, minding my own business, when I noticed a group of school kids a few seats down. They were whispering, glancing at me, then whispering again. They kept passing a folded piece of paper between them as if they were planning something top secret.

I watched this go on for two stops.

Finally, one of the kids was pushed forward by the others. He walked over to me slowly, like he was approaching a wild animal that might bite. He stopped right in front of me, bowed politely, and held out the folded paper with both hands.

I opened it.

Inside was a handwritten note in careful English: “Hello. We think you are a very cool person. We are practicing our English. We hope this note is correct. Please give us a score.”

At the bottom, they had drawn a literal grading box, out of ten.

I looked up. Seven pairs of eyes were staring at me as if their entire semester depended on my response.
I pulled out a pen, wrote “10/10” in the box, and added a note: “Perfect English. Well done.”

The boy carried it back to the group. They read it together… and absolutely lost their minds. High-fives, jumping, and one kid even pumped his fist in the air.

Their teacher, who had been pretending not to watch from the end of the car, was biting her lip, trying hard not to smile.

I rode the rest of the journey grinning to myself.

That’s the Japan I always remember.

@Ikechuk9152875 @Josh196z @Starqueensly @yuquas7 I’ve no dog in this fight, but community notes are user-driven, so no, it’s not 100% credible.

[BJTheCod3r @BJTheCod3r]

@theomotolarhoda Exactly, you’re right.

A few weeks ago, I was watching a reel on Instagram. It was about a teenager on the spectrum having a meltdown.

One comment really stood out to me. The person said that sometimes, in the middle of it, they realise it is unnecessary and they should stop, but the shame of admitting it had gone too far keeps them going.

That honestly made sense to me. But I do not think it applies only to people on the spectrum. I have seen many people act out of character, and you can almost tell there is a moment when they realise it is no longer worth it. Yet pride, shame, ego, or whatever else keeps them going until they make a bigger mess of things.

My point is this: the best time to leave a bad situation is now.

It is tempting to keep going until you feel justified, or until events somehow prove you right. But from experience, you do not need to follow foolishness to the very end. Most times, nothing good comes from it.

You can buy random domain names and keep them. However, I get it that most people will purchase a domain name based on the idea of doing something with it. But the point I’m making here is, buying a domain and building a website or web app as the case maybe can happen at different times apart, even years.

I’ve domain names as old as 6 years which I’ve not done anything with. If I decide to build something with any of them today, and I say I built it in 3 hours today, does that mean that because I’ve had the domain name for 6 years I’m lying?

This is not to say that I believe/disbelieve the op, I’m just trying to point out that the domain name can’t be used to invalidate his claims, at least not in the manner that you tried to use it.
