I guess the orange lambo toys I brought back from Laracon had an impact. My son wrote a paper about his aspirations and he sees owning an orange "lambergini" in his future. I also love that he wants to live next to me because I'm "vary" nice. 😊 I hope that all comes true for him

I'm so grateful that I was able to take my kids to Paris. Being able to travel the world with them has always been the dream.

All companies should hire a 6 yr old to take their app for a spin. Kids give the best UX feedback. They are the harshest product managers with the most creative ideas. They prefer simplicity and don't hold back. I give my kids all the credit for the app we've built together.

Only at a Laravel event can you meet someone for the first time and then go on an adventure to Sweden together. So fun. Thank you @DaveLiddament @EmmaDSCodes

I am so excited for @laravellivedk! I start my journey soon and the first mission when I get there is to find some smørrebrød. I have no idea how to pronounce it but I'm going to give it my best shot. 😉

I love plants! I have plants on every available surface in my house. Herbs, flowers, vegetables, fruits, tree etc. I especially love the weird plants. I didn't think I could meet a plant I didnt like. Until I met poison ivy. That plant is an Asshole. Not a fan.

I have to make a short video presentation for my company on Laracon (since most the engineering team went and people are now curious). I'm having a hard time figuring out where to start. How do you explain the vibes and energy you get from hanging out with everyone in person?

I created an app for my family before I left for Boston to try and encourage my kids to help around the house by gamifying chores (huge gamers). It's really been working for us! So in case anyone else wants to try, here's v1🙂Super fun project to tinker on github.com/developworkwright…

I think Boston might have been my favorite Laracon city yet. Venue was nice and the city is so cool. The historic buildings mixed in with the skyscrapers is wild.

Thunk is looking to hire a dev lead. You'd need to be able lead a project with minimal oversight, work well with a product manager, and maybe manage another dev or two. Anyone I've worked with in the past have at least 3 days a week open? If not, recommendations are welcome.

We're looking for a handful of folks to help us really nail our @nuxt_js support in Laravel Forge. 💚 If you have deep Nuxt experience and would be willing to try it out and give us some feedback, let me know! We're happy to offer a free hobby plan and usage credits.
