I'll most likely be found playing with Rubik's Cubes, playing FPS games, driving my MR2, taking pictures, or nerding out in some form of programming 🤣

My favorite pejorative is "It's just a CRUD app." Folks... they're all just CRUD apps.

This looks great! Love when people take Tailwind UI stuff and put their own stamp on it — it’s how we wanted the product to be used from day one 👍🏻

.@burnedchris always thought the website could be done better,
that’s when he saw Tailwind UI Transmit template. he knew this could be a perfect base for FSJam’s new websites.
Built with
- @tailwindcss
- @typescript
- @nextjs

Product manager: "Why does adding a button take 2 weeks?"
Also product manager: "This tech debt does not bring business value, so we have to deprioritize it."

Yeah, it's a bit frustrating to see people turn their noses up at PHP and then go cobble together something that Laravel just gives you out of the box.

Just read @mattstauffer 's Feb newsletter, see that he plays bass guitar. Click on the photos, and of course, he's gotta be fancy and play a 5 string!

PHP short closures are so good. Still get a rush using them each and every time.
I know they aren't "complete" or "perfect syntax"...but honestly, I don't even notice the "fn" anymore. I'm all about them.

Flags and other strategies that let you safely deploy unfinished or experimental code are *so* much better than long-lived branches.

It's not an open container, it's an emotional support cocktail.
