Mark, you are absolutely right ๐คญ

Is it just me, or am I seeing fewer and fewer code-snippet screenshots posted on social media, especially on X?
Are we all just burning tokens now?
Spending the day with WordPress again. Using Claude Code with Playwright and the frontend design plugin is a powerful combo to improve full site editing themes.
Super excited for a long Easter weekend off. My wife and I have gotten so tired that we didn't even realize it.
Time to relax and eat some chocolate.
Time to show prices per liter ๐
Migrating 10+ GB of MySQL data to Postgres completed. Ran into a few annoying quirks in the production environment using pgloader, but eventually it worked. Now monitoring and weekend mode.
Played with pgloader configs today. The error messages are really cool.
Managed to migrate a 10+ GB MySQL database to Postgres. I'll be migrating the production Laravel app this weekend.
I've always been impressed by Remotion, but the combination with the best practice AI skills just blew me away today.
Feed it some assets in an existing project and some stills of scenes. Claude took it and asked for the dynamic parts and built some fine animations ๐คฏ
Neglected a small Laravel app for a while and decided to upgrade it and move it to a new server on forge. Took a few minutes and all was up and running again.
The Laravel VPS on Forge are impressive tbh.
Back at work after a three-week break. Did I miss anything besides the lifted token limits for Claude?
I love how Claude Code pats itself on the shoulder from one agent to another for the excellent research a lot lately. Everybody needs some pampering ๐.
Last month I deployed a Filament + Livewire app that was written by Claude Code. I wrote less than 300 lines.
The client had a limited budget, but it worked. I ended up adding some nice-to-have features.
Would you read a blog post about it?
This is now always the first thing I add to any project. After every edit, hooks run linting and the test suite. If an edit was made to a file without tests, Claude needs to write the tests first.
Uff, after upgrading to macOS and iOS 26, my Logitech MX Keys S keyboard doesn't connect to either device. Neither Bluetooth nor the Logi Bolt works.
Of course I no longer have the receipt, and the Logi support bot is useless. Is this a known issue, or did my keyboard break?
First day at work after 20 days of vacation with my wife. I feel so refreshed.
Before, I was using Claude Code a lot. Is it still good, or should I give Codex a try? I downgraded right before the vacation, so I'm open to giving Codex a try.
Scotland kind of feels like the "Switzerland isn't real" meme.
Once Laravel Cloud supports Reverb, I'll be moving a bigger app to it ๐ค
I really like the navigation in Laravel Cloud and decided to build it in Filament v4.
Check out the tutorial and code โฌ๏ธ

Was just working on it again yesterday. Right now Iโm thinking to either show the avatar or to truncate the text. Will have to give it a try.
A few weeks ago, I had my Aaron Francis moment. Someone contacted me to mentor them with a Filament project, all because of my Youtube videos and blog posts. That felt wonderful.
Today marks what would have been my grandfather's 100th birthday. He passed over a decade ago, but I still cherish our conversations. He was a fascinating man, and many buildings he designed still stand in and around Lucerne. I have to visit the city archives someday.
Cool. Iโll let you know once the code is a bit more polished and ready to be used.
Working on a Laravel Cloud-style navigation for a Filament v4 project, and it's coming along nicely. ๐ค
If you're interested in a tutorial, the code, or both, let me know!
Pest v4 is here โ now with browser testing! Browser tests that feel like unit tests: Laravel-ready, Playwright-powered, parallel-fast, with smoke & visual regression built in. Discover Pest v4 โ and our new website: pestphp.com?ref=v4
Iโm going to give it a shot, not yet sure when, but soonish.
Totally
I wonder how complex it would be to build a Filament v4 navigation in the style of Laravel Cloud. Anyone tried this already?
