On the off chance this helps anyone... I was having mysterious issues with a certain Lighthouse PHP (Laravel / GraphQL) query with a hasOne relation. Finally fixed it by setting the $primaryKey field on the model class of the query.

The sound of connecting to dial-up internet just emanated from a distant corner of the coworking space.

When I was at awwwards conf - I told someone I was chatting with to DM me.
They got their phone out and couldn't.

some people who make programming easier
