dear package registries (npm, composer, etc), i am begging you

require 2FA before someone can tag a release RIGHT NOW

this would immediately stop a huge amount of the open source supply chain attacks we keep seeing

@OpenAI please add ⌃C / Ctrl+C to stop in Codex.

@iamdavidhill this is so cool 😁

We just shipped a new Boost skill: laravel-best-practices.

It equips your AI agent with 100+ curated Laravel best practices, covering Eloquent, caching, queues, authentication, and more — so it can generate code that’s not just correct, but idiomatic.

$ composer update
$ php artisan boost:install

https://t.co/aaLPZRnOg0 is sooo good, listening to coffee mode, really nice while coding

give it a try

[Dasun Tharanga @dasundev]

@CestIvan you may be correct, but i don’t collect any data from users. instead, i let them sync their data with their icloud account. the main goal of this app is to help people wake up at the end of a sleep cycle, not in the middle, so their mornings feel refreshed instead of groggy.

i have been building sleke for a few months now.

but i still haven’t found my first paying customer.

the subscription is just $0.99/month.

can anyone share their first impressions after downloading the app? it won’t charge you.

[Taylor Otwell @taylorotwell]

Every wondered which model is best for Laravel and how much does Boost actually help?

We had the same question - here's what we found out. 👀

[Sleke @sleke_app]

i love building things that quietly improve everyday life. sleke started from a simple idea: waking up shouldn’t feel like a battle every morning. #sleke

It's a desktop app that manages your entire dev stack.

Add a project, Solo detects your processes, and you can start everything with one click.

It's free! Try it today: https://t.co/804mFNwGV4

if you’re using the laravel tenancy package (stancl/tenancy), testing tenants the way the docs show is really slow.

i spent a couple of days figuring out how to speed things up, and now our test suite is 25× faster. i’ll share all the details in a blog post soon.
