@heiglandreas @awoodsnet i think we're going with dodop for sure. Thanks Andreas!
If you "Log in with Twitter" to any websites, get ready for that to stop working. Maybe the sites will send money to Musk, but maybe they won't. You need a Plan B, right now.

🐘 Want to see which of your dependencies have a new (major) release? There’s a Composer command for that!

`composer outdated`

Local Environment Seeders in Laravel | stefanzweifel.dev

Database Seeders in Laravel are a controversial feature. Everyone used them for different things. This post explains how I use them to bring my local app to different states.

@jclermont I have it on the left and auto hide. Use Raycast for app switching, so I don’t need to know what’s open (I have it set to not show indicators for open apps, too) - I’ll either get the open window or it’ll open it.
@derickr works for sure and is how I’ve had to do it, just grim having to do it at all. I’d expect the inference to be implicit but at that point may as well just use an associative array.
@timwolla oh yeah, guess I need to look into direct mastodon API or whatever

Kinda sad you can’t use enum members as keys in a WeakMap. Gotta use SplObjectStorage which can have garbage collection (or lack thereof) implications.

The latter is not nearly as concise, either.

I've had the idea for a weird kind of Twitter client for years. With Mastodon being all open, I've decided to do the experiment:

What if your Timeline looked like iMessage. A normal timeline confuses me to no end because everything is out of context.

My experiment, Ebou, is a Mastodon client that looks like iMessage. Conversations are grouped by friends and sorted by recent postings.

It is super basic right now, but this already feels much more natural to me 😀
