I'm so grateful for this sponsorship 🥹. Times are tough, and we lost a few sponsors lately, which made me worried about how we can keep pushing forward. And then @brendt_gd and @jetbrains stepped in, and I can breathe a little better. Thank you ♥️
A huge thank you to @jetbrains for supporting us! ❤️ It means a lot to have companies like JetBrains back up what we are doing. So much of what we do wouldn’t be possible without the support of our sponsors. Thank you and welcome on board 🎉.

"Larabelles, because open source is about more than code; inclusivity is crucial." 💯 Big thanks to @phpstorm for supporting Larabelles! And, of course, the one and only @brendt_gd, who set everything in motion. @LarabellesPHP
We've selected the five new projects we'll sponsor as of next month with @phpstorm ! blog.jetbrains.com/phpstorm/… There are honestly so many good ones, so it's impossible to pick, but let that be encouragement to all of you to pitch in as well if you can :)

I'll take a "fan" over an "it works" any day. The fans brought the passion. The fans are what made it great.
Replying to @sebastienlorber
I don’t think frameworks will have “fan bases” anymore, certainly nothing like it used to be. I think that whole thing is dead.

We improved all of our expose.dev servers to include botnet detection and blocking at the edge, so your shared sites will not be hit by bots trying to access wp-admin, .env, etc 🫡

I need your help: The @stateoflaravel is going spectacular BAD this year. After 2 weeks we don't even have 1k participants. Please share it (again) if you can. And please subscribe to be notified the next years. Currently, there are only 300 on the list for the next years...

If you implement semantic search, be mindful what data you're making searchable: - By definition, the embeddings can never be encrypted. Encrypted data can't be indexed for vector search. - Data _can_ be inferred with pretty high accuracy from the embeddings themselves using what's called "vector inversion". - Which means anyone with access to the embeddings can infer the data, even if the source itself data is encrypted. You can harden how you store embeddings, but you can never encrypt them and they will _always_ be invertible. So don't implement semantic search on sensitive data you'd normally encrypt. It would defeat the purpose.

I added a custom dcg rule that forbids agents to install or use any other PHP than Herd's, or mess around with internal Herd configuration. Opus 5 seems to have a lot of fun installing PHP via Homebrew, even though php is already available through Herd.🤨 Anyone else seeing this?

Just stumbled across this, great work by @gonedark. I've been using Mockery a lot, but it always felt a bit... clumsy to me. The function names alone make Double look way more fun to use. Definitely going to try it out. Myself. Not the agent. That's fun stuff!
After weeks of livestreaming and dogfooding, I’m excited to officially announce Double. 🎉 A modern PHP mocking library built around developer experience. Inspired by Mockery and RSpec, Double stands on their shoulders, with very little to learn. Just enjoy a smoother DX.
