My politics can be summed up as “Be kind and help people to live.”

And apparently that makes me a radical leftist. so be it.

@joe.codes I switched back to Code from Storm and its amazing how far the Laravel extension has come in a year. Thank you for all the amazing work. My favorite new (to me) feature is the built in test runner.

That’s terrifying and unfortunately not surprising

New in Parental v1.5.0: Becoming, Integers, and Eager-Loading Parental v1.5.0 introduces three new features for Single Table Inheritance in Laravel: types can now transition to other types with the become() method, you can use integer columns instead of strings,...

Parental, our Single-Table-Inheritance package, has a new release: v1.5.0! 👇
• Models can now transition from one child type to another, with become()
• You can store child type as integers instead of strings
• Eager loading children is even easier than ever

A 3D printed case on a wood coffee table. The print has a large compartment across the top that stores my syringes, and the bottom section is divided into three. The left section has three cylindrical holes for testosterone. The middle section takes up 75% of the bottom section. It's for storing alcohol wipes, but also conveniently holds my daily med case. The last section is small and holds some of my rescue meds.

A 3D print on a wood coffee table. It is the lid and snaps for the case in the previous image.

Over the weekend, I printed this snap-together case. It holds my HRT, daily meds, and rescue migraine meds.

Yeah! More and more of my friends are not on social media regularly, so I want to send them updates and hopefully have it spark conversations or connection but also texting a ton of people individually is kind of a pain 😅
Maybe email is better for this, but I hate email.

I had a similar thought but sms instead

I’m also building a task manager, so I’m thinking of having NFCs hook into that. I.e started the dishwasher, fed dogs etc

I got some for Christmas! I have one on my med case that has a shortcut to open up the Apple health app to the medications page. And another one on my phone charger on my desk to put my phone and laptop into focus mode.

Thank you & I hope so too!

Nice! This is my current favorite bin generator tool: gridfinitygenerator.com/en

And this ruler has actually been helpful (even though my spouse thinks it's ridiculous): makerworld.com/en/models/85...

Yeah, and I think he meant the first one to be a joke, potentially, cause I think it also came out on April 1st. But those jokes always go over my AuDHD head 😂

The printer is great, right?! I've got the P1S and still love it. Have you looked into/seen Gridfinity at all?

Looks great!

I ran `laravel new` 5 times this weekend, how about you?

I’m glad you liked it and were reminded of things! Cause I forget that stuff all the time too 😅

That’s amazing!

I hope you like it!

Have you had a chance to watch it?

Wow, Laramap is really taking off. I never expected so many fellow developers to sign up. Thanks to this amazing community. Additionally, the first companies have reached out to support the project. Huge thanks to @ploi.io and Chief Tools.

Blue pens are the best pens

I’ve used proton for a year, and I really like them. Though one thing that is worth noting that might be a make/break is if you use Apple Calendar or Apple Mail it’s a bit cumbersome to get working, to the point where I gave up and just use the web client on desktop and their apps on my iPhone.
