I built a tiny icon-morphing component with AlpineJS + Blade! You literally just pass in two SVGs and it handles the morphing for you. Could be on hover or whatever other trigger/event is needed Super simple to use, but it makes interactions feel so much more polished.

🎧 Recorded a new morning walk this morning, hard one to share because I'm sure people will want to roast me for it but have been transparent up until now so publishing it anyways.

@taylorotwell @WigangSsi This is the dilemma I wrestle with; we value thoughtful code because it’s maintainable, but if a robot is going to maintain it, does it matter? My heart says yes, because I find craft and elegance to be personally fulfilling. Time will tell, however, what the market values.

A few things I've noticed as all devs write code with AI. When you write foundational / architectural code of a new project by hand, you "feel" the code pushing back if your abstraction isn't right. You feel when something is harder than it should be. The code is telling you it's not in the right shape. Good engineers are sensitive to this. When you're using an LLM, you keep pushing right through this in a way that feels like you're making progress, and it may even be directionally correct in a sense, but the underlying foundation of it all is actually bad in a way that either kills progress of the LLM later as it buckles under the complexity it has created or destroys your ability to maintain the code long term. Related to this, I see a general restlessness with just sitting and thinking about a problem for a while. As I've been working on a new library here at Laravel, there have been days where it feels like I mainly just stare at my screen thinking about something. When Claude Code is at your fingertips, it's tempting to just start yapping into the terminal and watching code come out the other end. Again, directionally correct in some ways, but often doesn't land on the elegant solution that is waiting to be discovered.

@keithdamiani I remember that was a Shiner Holiday Cheer that I was drinking because my parents were in town, making it legal 😂

16 years ago today I went to the on-campus doctor at A&M for a normal appointment and got diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. A few days later I spent the night in the hospital learning all about my new life and how to give myself shots. Grateful to God for seeing me through it
