I was never able to do blood tests when I asked for it in Netherlands
Doctor asked "why? you're not sick?"
Then I tried in Portugal (at Germano de Sousa) but they never picked up the phone or when they did were so slow and unhelpful I gave up, they also require a doctor prescription btw
The first place I could get my blood tested was Thailand in 2018, I just walked into Bumrungrad and asked for it, amazing experience
Last few years we just fly to Brazil and do it here, the nurse comes to your home/hotel at 8am and takes your blood, same or next day results online
I find it funny I keep having to fly out of Western Europe to do blood tests, they make it impossibly hard to do them
Which is retarded

@levelsio Who is your doctor in Portugal who can prescribe all the tests you want to do?

It finally happened to me 😱
I kept seeing posts about AI wiping databases and thought, "come on, that can’t happen so easily".
Well… Claude Code generated some tests for a feature I was building but didn’t set a testing database.
The tests ran on the actual working DB and truncated everything.
Luckily it was my local database and not production.
So it's confirmed, it happens.
English
Another week of Claude usage.
I "managed to squeeze" 32% of my $100/mo Max plan.
I worked HARD on MANY projects (demos, AI evaluations, FilaCheck package), used Opus a lot, but still haven't used all the limits.
I guess my demos are too simple.
Need to level up even more :)

@hafizzeeshan619 @taylorotwell Amazing article, thank you for sharing! 🙏

This is huge. The fact that whereFullText, Scout, vector search, and reranking are all in one place now makes it so much easier to pick the right approach.
I wrote a quick breakdown of when to use each one, most apps can stick with whereFullText and never need vector search: hafiz.dev/blog/laravel-s…

Shipped /docs/search, which summarizes various search approaches available in Laravel.
It's a good overview of what's available and you can dig deeper into what's relevant to you on other pages. 🔍
I think most applications can get pretty far with the built-in database stuff fyi.

@driesvints @Cloudflare mPDF library works really well for me, in case you haven't already used it!
English
I went out on a mission to figure out what the easiest way was to generate PDF's in a Laravel app on Cloud. Turns out @Cloudflare makes it dead simple with its PDF browser rendering API.

Be completely honest:
Has AI actually improved the way you do your work?
English
The Agent can run commands like on the cli, which means it can use grep etc etc to find its way through your codebase. So I give the initial spec for the feature I want to build on plan mode, then the AI agent goes through my codebase and suggests what needs to be done. We discuss back and forth for a while until we have a solid plan and then I ask it to move on and implement the plan!
English
@NickDunas @heyandras How would the agent output differ from what the same model outputs in the chat?
English
English
@NickDunas @heyandras I haven't tried agents. Mostly because I don't have money to spend on them.
English
@kettanaito @heyandras Did you try any AI agents? Use an AI agent on plan mode with Sonnet 4.5 and then execute the plan again with Sonnet or a cheaper model and you will be amazed!
English
@heyandras Really? I find it having close-to-no impact on my daily tasks at all. I do use it as a replacement for Google, but it mostly sucks with engineering tasks. Some models are better than others, but more often than not they don't suggest correct answers.
English
@catalinmpit I would use the same GET route that is used to return these items and implement a filter as a query parameter on it

Cash transactions over a certain limit are already banned in Romania. I think the limit is €10k.
Everything above that, needs to go through a bank.
Anyway, read 1984 by George Orwell to understand where Europe is heading.
Alex Mason 👁△@AlexMasonCrypto
🚨 BREAKING The EU will require identity checks for all cash transactions above €3,000 and all crypto transactions regardless of amount. Cash transactions over €10,000 will be banned.

Now this is built in the framework, I can finally retire github.com/barryvdh/larav…
Current implementation is a lot simpler now we use the Concurrency features of Laravel.
Probably not for everyone but it can have its uses :)

@catalinmpit Use Laravel as an API and dont go with inertiajs. Just react with vite etc!
English
So many people suggests Laravel or Rails.
I think I'll pick Laravel and start a streaming series where I re-build one of my apps with it.
Why Laravel instead of Rails?
I already have some experience with PHP.
Catalin@catalinmpit
Perfect stack for 99% of the apps: - SPA: React, TanStack Router, TailwindCSS - Backend: Bun, Hono, Postgres - Misc: TypeScript, Zod, Vite - Marketing: Astro I don't know why we keep complicating stuff.

@0xblacklight @thdxr Droid is amazing. I have tested CC, opencode and Junie and droid is the best so far, for now at least.
English
@thdxr Man droid is such a joke
The only content I see about it is blatantly paid promo stuff

Junie by @jetbrains is quite good, but really slow. Any chance that we could speed things up?

@vicke4 @benjiDotSo implementing it is ez, getting api keys and being approved is a nightmare
English
ppl have been complaining that @benjiDotSo does TOO much and they have no idea how to utilize it to the max (because i'm lazy to write docs)
so what i'm trying: i made a docs repo using fumadocs (using gpt codex on yolo mode) and told it to read the benji repo and write a doc for ONE feature
then after it was done, i reviewed it and gave it tips on how to improve it, and told it to write a doc about how do we describe features in the future (very meta)
now with every feature we describe, we also update the meta doc so we can update old and new features even better
next step: figuring out how to take screenshots with playwright and add them to docs, that would be sick af
next next step: auto fixing docs based on github commits / pr merges
I LOVE LIVING IN AN LLM WORLD IT'S INCREDIBLE!!!!!
