I'll be doing a podcast at the end of the month with @ThePrimeagen all about programming. He is a great programmer and hilarious human being 🔥 In general, I have a bunch of super-technical podcasts coming up on programming… probably with @dhh (creator of rails), @taylorotwell (creator of laravel), @rough__sea (creator of node & deno), @rauchg (creator of next.js), @ashtom (ceo of github) and many more (sorry if I forgot people, going off the top of my head). This post is primarily about software, but in general, my goal is to celebrate great engineering and great engineers from all walks of life 🚀🔥 Oh and if anyone knows how to get in touch with Linus Torvalds, let me know. Obviously, I would love to talk to him. See my profile for the link to contact me. As part of all this, here are the languages & frameworks I'm trying (for each, building something simple but sufficiently complicated to test its cool features): - rust - go - zig - elixir - next.js & vercel - laravel - rails - mojo - deno - jai - odin Also, I have to force myself to try neovim at some point 😭🤣 For context, I'm a python & c/c++ guy, plus php, js, sql (of all flavors) for webdev. I tend to favor focusing on building fast (and fun) vs the language/tool choice, but there is still a lot to learn from each of these technologies. Outside of the podcast, one of my goals for 2025 is to ship some code (system, service, app) that will bring value to some number of people's lives (whether I do this solo or as part of a team). This makes me happy. I love talking to people and I love programming. I've been doing a lot of the former, and this year I hope to add to that a bit of the latter too ;-) If you have questions or suggestions, for languages or for technical guests, please let me know.

@aarondfrancis harder for me because im not a PHP dev



We're not done this week! 🔥 Today on Laracasts, join @mattstauffer as he reviews the full process of building a real-life SaaS from scratch, while accounting for the odd and inconvenient feature requests we often receive along the way. laracasts.com/series/lets-bu…





bro, try laravel it's so simple compared to next. this is a todo list application:
