I said months ago that I wanted to start pairing regularly with new people, but client work got in the way. Summer is shaping up to be a relatively peaceful time for me, so now is a great time to get this started. Use this link to grab an hour! calendar.app.google/RthNTaLYCA9Q...

Hey everyone, @gros.co and I had planned on doing the draw for our extra @laracon.us community bundle ticket today, but I had to go to the hospital to get my gallbladder removed instead. You've got one more day to go to laravel.recipes and register
Welcome
Our recipes for Laravel are interactive scripts that help you do hours, days, or weeks of work on your Laravel app with a few clicks.

Running `./vendor/bin/pint --diff=main` in CI could save you a **ton** of time... 👀

[1.x] Adds `--diff` option by ProjektGopher · Pull Request #327 · laravel/pint
This PR is how I've always wished the --dirty flag worked.
pint --dirty will lint staged and unstaged files (and possibly untracked?). But once a file is committed, it will not be touched again...

Lol Simon is way too humble. We were chatting recently about some things we're working on together, and I casually dropped that "I love working with clever people" and he literally snort-laughed
I wouldn't say "insanely smart"...
"Determined" is a better way
Or even "I gotta figure this out so that I don't get laughed off stage in 6 weeks time"
😅

Historically, I've never really been a huge Christmas guy because of over-commercialization, etc. But kids' joy has really shifted the lens through which I see it. We asked Allison about Santa, and she excitedly exclaimed "I LOVE Santa, and Santa LOVES me!"

Is there anyone here who lives within 4 hours of Basel by train who wants to have lunch with me and @projektgopher.com tomorrow? We are planning to get on a train and go… somewhere. Help us decide where. Lunch is on me.

It's funny how much of parenting boils down to gaslighting your kids. Wife and kids were meant to fly to Palm Springs 2hrs before I fly to Zurich so that I could help wrangle them through the airport.

It is with a heavy sense of sorrow in my heart that I have to announce the decommissioning of one of my most beloved t-shirts.
I got it ~15 years ago at a Judas Priest concert on their Nostradamus tour.
My wife has informed me that there is a small hole in the armpit.

Generally, when we're working with Broadcasting in Laravel, like with Pusher or Reverb, the Laravel app is simply sending events to that service over http(s) which is then broadcast out to all connected clients over web sockets.

Being a freelancer is so weird. I went to pick up our food for family pizza and movie night. The lady says "have a good long weekend" as she's handing me our pizza.
I literally have no idea what holiday she's talking about.
