Wow! I'm just looking at my next project after a while away from coding. When I left PHP8.4 had just been released, & now I'm looking at a potential PHP8.6 on the horizon!
I last use Laravel when it was version 10, and I've never created an API focused project before, so I need to do some research!

I’ve been through a lot worse than anything Donald Trump or Pete Hegseth can throw at me. And I'm not backing down, because this isn't about me — it's about you and every American's First Amendment right.

As a European (well, English) - I'd rather they ramp up they increase taxes all over the EU (& the UK) & self-fund Ukraine, taking Trump out of the loop - then he won't have influence - Putin is going to push things as far as he can - then farther... then farther.

@akilstokesrtm.bsky.social Hey Akil, I just wanted to check to see if you use BlueSky, or whether it's just an auto cross-feed that publishes it to here.
Would love to pick your brain
Thanks

EBOF 3.3.25 Chuck Nunn This is "EBOF 3.3.25 Chuck Nunn" by EBOF on Vimeo, the home for high quality videos and the people who love them.

Was he paid to show up at the town hall with Kansas Senator Marshall (who got up and walked away when asked about veterans/DOGE?). This is worth watching from Chuck Nunn vimeo.com/1062230334/6...

How much of an absolute toddler is Trump to demand an apology. Just so small

"This is why I kept this going for so long..." - Dick Trump.

I'm so mad right now. President Zelensky walked into a planned ambush by Trump & his pet. Trump plannedfor the media coverage to be there when it blew up as he actually hinted at.
I wish I could go over to Ukrain and fight for good.

@georgetakei.bsky.social I've said it before & I'll say it again; I think Putin has got something on Trump - for a start twice the I.Q.; the KGB training (& everything that goes with it).
The question is... what else does he have on him?

I can't stand bullies. President Zelensky is now trying to stand up against two of them. We should have his back. #SlavaUkraïni

4 bloody hours, and I still can't get my computer to boot. For some reason I can't get it to recognise the name drive (although it works fine from USB Live installation). I'll have small break then back to it

Ok. For the past 2 hours I've been trying to get my system back up and running. I thought I had it a minute ago when "nvme" was moving from the GRUB modules... But alas not

Nuno, I initially created a site and admin system in Vue 3, but constant revisions and tweaks are a nightmare. Just finishing switching to Filament. An absolute Godsend! All changes in PHP can be done/uploaded straight away. (Obviously shows a lack of structure & procedures on my part, admittedly)

Get a library card even if you're not planning to use it. It impacts their funding.

It's perfectly okay to admit "I don't know" when faced with tech challenges or problems at work. Recognizing our limitations, even while constantly connected, is a valuable trait. Just saying…

It'll be a month or two before I have time to do it, but when I get back around, I will have a look at the install script, before I just go through the installation pages manually (it's the only time I get to play with some of the more core commands that set the system up.
