I am finishing right now the docs on how to use Timescale with Laravel by implementing a simplistic requests performance logging system. I am always amazed how easy you can build nice looking console output with Laravel ❤️

I am working on an interactive graph for the Timescale course to show that analytical queries get much slower the more data you have. Its fake numbers for now... Do you prefer the first or second one? I like that the 2nd one doesn't need an extra axis to describe the points.

Chrome disabled AdBlock, Edge now starts doing the same, Firefox changed its policies to allow selling data about you… Is there really any good browser left? Safari?

So it is like it always was? Competition brings innovation! It's always a roadblocker if someone is save on his spot and isn't challenged constantly.

Sometimes you're just too stupid... I've been fiddling with a new server for 3 hours to get VPN and firewall working. But somehow my service I wanted to test was never reachable over VPN - no matter what I tried... The VPN has its own firewall and I didn't allow the service 🙃

So now we've got clearance by a big site that those flashy websites ARE NOT what customers want! They are great to make some viral hit about your website and the cool effects but customers are unimpressed. Great marketing experiment Planetscale. Kudos👍

I like SQL riddles. So I was happy when Iyushh shared with me what he's been working on: SQL puzzles that range from easy to hard. And unlike the other existing projects these run on a real PostgreSQL database :) sqlpremierleague.com

Is it too early to say companies lost their focus when they go fullscale on AI? There's so much low-hanging fruit CF should be working on - and they choose AI. For example, you still can't limit an R2 API key to add but not delete data which is important if you want to store

Am i insane? I tried a TypeScript mode that forces you to type everything. Its more verbose - a lot more verbose... But I now had some parts where errors havn't been found with inferred types. I wouldn't do this for every project. But here I need a rock-solid implementation.

An easy way to spot when americans are developing software (without any non-americans in the team) is their understanding of characters. Now Paddle blocked all special german characters (äöüß etc.) because they don't know of them. The world does use more than ASCI 😅

I completely missed that my Laravel PostgreSQL driver crossed 1 million downloads two weeks ago! Never imagined so many using it 🤯

Are you a german Laravel developer looking for work (employment/freelancing)? I've got something for you: About 20h/week for a freelancer is a fantastic offer. The project and pay is interesting, really great opportunity!

Realized that I've been using PHP before superglobals had been added and later the deactivation of register_globals had resulted in many broken scripts. So I've been using it before 4.1 (2001). So about 25 YEARS 🤯

I want to start this years State of Laravel survey in 2 weeks. Last years didnt initially worked so well because it didn't reach enought people. I relied on the help of everyone to distribute it again to get a good participation count. What should I do so everyone know of it?
