Okay, badge.laravel.cloud is now a thing. Really happy with the @laravel cloud domain 😄 Still a few things I want to do, but I thought it would be better to get it out there instead of letting it gather dust.

@GrahamJCampbell Same thoughts really. Some things can be nationalised.

As someone who is centre-right, nationalisation is not always a bad thing. Utilities and transport can make sense when there is no competition mechanism that can work in the private sector. Privatising water was one of the worst things the UK ever did.

@simonhamp @ShaneDRosenthal It's really the difference between a project that goes places and one that just has a landing page that no one uses

A lot of devs don't "get" marketing. Some even disagree with it I used to be like that It takes vision, imagination and empathy, all of which are harder for our logic brains But it is possible to learn! Even easier if you have a partner who can help ( @ShaneDRosenthal 🙏🏼 )

@GrahamJCampbell Honestly not surprised. I'm sure Digital Games didn't help but they equally didn't help themselves a lot. I'm sure someone will bail out the brand to be reused.

@rorysutherland How much research did you do?

Most enjoyable places to urinate, in order: Your own swimming pool Your own garden The sea Someone else's swimming pool Someone else's garden A toilet When defecating, the order is reversed.

soooo.... who wants @nativephp Desktop v3? no Electron no Tauri no javascript no webview no PHP web server just PHP

@simonhamp @nativephp Very cool. No webview sounds great.

@aagjalpankaj @taylorotwell Neat! Thank you!

@peterfox @taylorotwell Just listed Laravel Version Compatibility Badge Generator on shippedon.laravel.cloud 🚀 It's live on the wall → shippedon.laravel.cloud/projects/larav…

I’ll send a new MacBook Air (good config nothing lame) to the best side project shipped on Laravel Cloud this weekend Not a drill please be somewhere I can actually ship it to Reply to this tweet with a laravel.cloud URL

@tillythecoder If you need a head start Remotion has one you can purchase.

I guess I'm building a video editor now

@AshAllenDesign I know how you feel. Becomes difficult at times and then you add on top AI making it feel a bit useless.

I lost my writing mojo earlier this year. I'm not sure why, but I lost all my motivation to write any new blog posts! I haven't published an article since 22nd January! 😭 But I can feel my mojo returning. I'm going to publish a new article later today 😎

@PovilasKorop @taylorotwell Got a link? Sounds like an interesting watch

@taylorotwell Yes, I've shot a video recently about Python image OCR called from Laravel. So it seems to be a very logical "extension" of Laravel. Laravel covers the web layer, calling other languages that are BETTER for certain tasks. Planning to shoot more content about it.

AI is empowering smaller teams to experiment with a wider variety of languages than before, often pairing their Laravel monolith with focused services written in languages they aren't necessarily experts in. Years ago, when we wrote a Forge monitoring service in Go, it felt like a big investment to maintain something in a language none of us knew well. Now it's easy to pick the right tool for the job for focused tasks and services that support your primary Laravel monolith. More on this at Laracon (still some tickets available). 😏

@AndyGriffithsX Yes but also life stresses make it hard to focus and finish all these things

@peterfox My guess is you’re like me and have loads of interests and tons of ideas. At least we don’t get board.

Big TagLink order incoming. Sleeping on a giant. Ever feel pulled in so many directions you feel like you’re going around in circles?

@osteel something I wish would be automated more is just waking up and finding PRs with the fixes. The problem is still is the reviewing part though.

If you're looking for a task for Claude to do semi-autonomously (and that you can monitor from your phone, for instance), try `/doctor`. It does a lot more than it used to, and will probably flag and offer to fix things currently flying under your radar

@simonhamp Reddit is the worse

yikes, the reddit trolls are out in force this week 😂 reddit.com/r/laravel/comm…

@osteel Do you just have a cron that runs the CLI quickly with a random prompt that runs and finishes?

@peterfox For a while I had a reminder on my phone to start a session every day at 6:30am. Then realised I didn’t have to do that haha

Claude Code tip: To maximise the number of 5-hour windows I get per day, I set up a dummy routine that runs at 5:30 am. It starts my first session before I wake up, so when I begin work I have a fresh session with a couple of hours left, and can fit three sessions into the day.

@simonhamp @AnthropicAI Yeah, I'm super confused why Fable is being removed and what plans actually still give you it

Yo @AnthropicAI I will pay you $1,000/mth, just give me Fable in my usage with a good usage cap Please for the love of god

People who've build local LLM setups. Like your own hardware etc. How's that worked out? Still using it or have you switched to something managed.

@saeed_vz @taylorotwell appreciate that ❤️

@peterfox @taylorotwell I think it deserves to win 👏

@stevebauman @heychazza If you make use of Grok it takes some of the sting out of it. It's pretty good for day to day stuff.

@heychazza Haha all it takes is $59 CAD per month for as long as I want to keep it 🙃

Hell yea, finally
