My heart stopped. Sheesh.

It’s beautiful. It took me under an hour to implement. I never got authentik or authelia working, and this is all in one container.

Another banger video. Thanks! That’s exactly how I figure I’d learn. For the last few years I’ve been addicted to watching subbed and unsubbed episodes of Game Center CX and when they speak slow enough, the ambiguous learning really works. E.g. when everyone is groaning after a death and gets serious and the narrator says “lasto iki” well it’s pretty obvious iki means “life”

I ended up watching 4 eps and yeah it was really enlightening. Especially episode 2, discussing “it” being invisible.

It did help me realize that I’m just not a language learner. Might give her videos another run at a slower speed to try and process all the academic jargon.

You were not kidding about the voice. Sheesh.

I, and then every junior I’ve onboarded as well, struggled to grasp just how important the naming conventions are for everything to just work. Models and tables must be named a certain way or you’ll be scratching your head. Model policies must be named a certain way. On and on. You can override all those, of course, but it’s just another gotcha.

If you want to use PHP, and you want to be productive, there’s no other choice in my opinion. I will say, the brain behind it is quite opinionated and most of those opinions are correct. If you don’t agree with those opinions, you will probably find yourself hating it and fighting the Laravel Magic. Give in to the magic and get shit done.

Forget those complex “classic” knots and try the “Van Wijk” knot. It couldn’t be easier, you only move the fat end of the tie and wrap it around the skinny end 2-4 times before pulling the fat end through the wraps. So fast, impossible to forget, and looks classy while being distinct.
