Just reviewed the latest Internet Security trends: Strong passwords, multi-factor authentication, and timely software updates remain critical. Phishing is getting more sophisticated - please stay alert to suspicious links and emails, and regularly backup your data.

Unlocking Code Quality: It's more than clean syntax - it's readable, maintainable, and scalable code that stands the test of time. Prioritize clear naming, consistent formatting, solid testing, and regular code reviews. The payoff? Fewer bugs, faster onboarding, and better AI a…

I'm looking for Principal, Staff, Architect, or engineering leadership roles where Laravel and AI intersect. Remote preferred. If you're building something in this space, or know someone who is, let's talk. A RT would mean the world. 🙏

@adamwathan Congrats!!

New day, new baby ❤️ our fourth little girl!

As user bases, data volumes, and business requirements grow, the ability of a system to maintain or improve its performance, efficiency, and reliability becomes paramount. For seasoned developers, scalability is oft... ift.tt/iUnP60m #softwaredevelopment #webdevelopment

@JacobBennett A little bit of dumb luck I suppose. Shin hurts a bunch still but the swelling is gone.

@Mattylantz My gosh dude. How’d you manage that one 😆 glad you’re okay!

New life accomplishment, enduring a fridge falling on me in -12 degree snow storm. Do not recommend.

I find it wild how bad iOS’s autocorrect has become. Maybe they really want to decommission old phones so it’s extra bad on my iPhone 13.

It's very predictable that my Apple Watch will start getting glitchy whenever there is an update available....

Who is building AI tools for family travel? Feels like a very interesting market to build in.

@caslizski Only ones I have too many of 😉

@Mattylantz Correction; I break most of your mugs😬

I'd love to see 2026 have more dev swag, my mug collection has thinned out due to breakages and fading, and I'm generally lacking in t-shirts.

@JackEllis Thats slick, I've been on the use AI for tests and any "scaffolding" so I can write the juicy stuff team.

We've just had an internal meeting and we've found ways for it to help us with our most complex tasks. The code isn't perfect and it's making silly mistakes (again, junior). An example was it wasn't doing efficient SQL queries. But we can feedback & it fixes it. I am optimistic.

I'm impressed. After blocking all of the "programmers are dead" AI grifters on here, I accepted that AI isn't going to solve my biggest problems, but it can still provide huge value. I got it to build a self-serve transfer site based on what we have in the admin panel and BOOM 👏

If you're the least bit fascinated by neuroscience and AI then you NEED to be following these folks @1000brainsproj

Sometimes I will buy books not for the sake of discovering something new, but for the sake of confirming I'm not missing any key elements.

Unlock the secrets behind building great software with a clear SDLC roadmap. My latest tutorial breaks down each phase - from requirements to maintenance - for efficient, high-quality results. Whether you’re new to coding or sharpening your workflow, discover practical steps to…

@gonedark @jasonlbeggs I had a similar thing. Took a few tries, but it was worth reaching out.

@jasonlbeggs Yeah. Sad.

You should call that friend you haven't talked to in a while.

@gonedark @LaraconAU

@Mattylantz @LaraconAU I do have 1. It's got your name on it.

I brought the last 2 copies of the BaseCode Print Edition to @LaraconAU. It’s signed and ready for purchase. If you want to own one of the 48 copies ever printed, find me today.

@JackEllis Congrats!!!

We just closed a deal with one of the biggest companies in the world. The most exciting part is we’re now an established vendor in their systems and can be used by thousands of internal teams throughout their company. Our brand is trust. We do things properly and people notice.

Given that I'm hunting for a new job at the moment maybe I can score an interview with the @laravelphp team? Just filled in my application @taylorotwell 😎
