I treat our Slack as if I'm checking a social network and I can't tell if that's a good or bad thing

I've enlisted @cmorrell.com and @joe.codes to clean up the streets

Yes.. Yes, I was acting. Yes.

We like to have fun here

Jury's out

Qlock - A JavaScript Quine Clock Displays the current time in a seven-segment style, embedded within its own JavaScript source code. (321 bytes)

You may already be aware, but a computer program that outputs its source code as its output is called a quine.

One of my favourites: aem1k.com/qlock/

Ok noted, I could use a couple grand

I wish I could take credit for any of those things, but rather, I just announced two packages that aren't even ready yet 😂

In any case, I'll get our conversation out in the world very soon 👌

Congrats man, that's huge!

The ep is coming out soon! Sorry, got bogged down with Laracon stuff

A month ago my side project launched for its 8th year. In the last month it’s gained an additional 9,500 users, pushing the total since 2018 over 60k. It’s one of those things I want to talk about more often but it’s hard to find the time or solidify what to take away from it.

If you attended Laracon US, you already know this, but:

I'm currently wrapping up the last three videos of my upcoming course, which is all about how I built the incredible development team at @tighten.com.

The course will be free (!!), hosted on Laracasts, and out this autumn!

That's awesome! Shoot me a link to the ep once it's up, I'd love to give it a listen!

Great use case! That sounds exciting

The current version of Wayfinder only deals with routes, Ranger and the new Wayfinder will be out in beta at some point soon to start playing with 👍

Dang I should have put my TypeScript referral code up on the screen, could be raking in some real dough

That's awesome! Happy to hear it, that's huge.

Ah sorry man, didn't mean to trivialize it. Hope you got that sorted, that sounds rough.

Is your doc taking new patients

A) if I can get Chris to use it I know I'm on the right track

B) if you like Ranger you can thank Bossman. Gave him an early preview of Wayfinder, it was all bundled together, he went "you know I'd love to tap into that underlying bit, two packages?" I was like yup, duh, it's called Ranger

Big 🧠

I didn't even pretend it was mine in the first place, I knew where I stood

I was late on getting that but if I had snagged that it woulda been the same sitch

At every sponsor booth I asked if they had anything my kid would like

They were all like, "Oh my god we have so many things a kid would love. Sticker? Plushie? Beach ball? Frisbee? Gummies? Rubik's cube? Little button to click to your heart's content?"
