As a non-american it doesn't have the same effect on me 🙃

Make APIs Great Again

Planning a series of YouTube lives atm 😎

It is finally time!

So apparently you now need to verify your identity on here to access direct messages ...

This is part of a new UK legislation, mostly focusing on adult websites. Last time I checked, bluesky was meant to be a social network

If you don't get a reply to a DM, it's because I refuse to play along

I've been working on something a little fun for Laravel 👀

This isn't its final form, but I think it's getting close!

I get you, especially if you're doing more of a contract based freelance role!

I'm lucky, my work is all around content creation atm

Currently working on my strategy for the next 12 months as a freelance dude.

How's your Thursday going?

I'm not going to say no to that!

I think I might do something with my resume-php package on a live stream next week. Start building some tooling and services around the specification 💪

Thanks for having me!

I thought I'd try a fun experiment, instead of me building a project on YouTube and calling it a "Let's build" - why don't I completely over engineer ideas and call it "Let's over-engineer" 🙃

Would this be fun? You can live vicariously through my exploits
