It's funny but there's still people arguing over the best programming language in the world? Weirdo😂😂🥲

I don't know about you guys, but I feel so happy when somebody finnally gets a job. It doesn't matter the industry, obviously I feel happier when it's related to software development but...yheaa, especially it a Rookie, the Job Market is so tough...OMG.

It has been scary to pick up a skill and really commit to learn, mainly Digital one. Damn, you pick one skill you like at night and in the morning, you wake up, a new AI model is released and able to do everything, including things related to the skill you planned to commit.
It’s so demotivating, i’m sure most people would love for the old days to come back, days when you learn and discover as you build but FOMO controls us and we can’t afford to spend alotta time on learning skills that someone else will just make an agent build, sad really.

I used to hate coffee for no reason, today I am learning the hard way I am so addicted after realizing I have nothing in stock and I can't buy because it's 5AM, and my body crying for it.
Learning to code made love coffee, Damn, I never thought I was so addicted.🥲

If the only thing you care about is CODE, I dare to say that you're already losing as a Rookie software Developer.
Especially if you want to go freelancing, Marketing and Sales are the subjects you must never ever ignore

Does anybody else here listen to podcast over music most part of the time while coding? 🤔
I can't listen to music with lyrics, and definitely not podcasts (which all have commentary), while also concentrating on code. How do you do that and also focus on the work? 🤔
Depends. I can listen to podcasts when I am working on light topics. I turn them off to focus, and when I really need to power through things, I listen to either classic rock or a playlist of Nick Cave, Tom Waits, and other similar artists. Both categories are so well worn to…
I will start streaming while learning to go from Rookie To Ninja in my favorite tech stacks: PHP, TYPESCRIPT, LARAVEL, REACT, ASTRO.JS. some topics on System Design, Software Architecture, Marketing and more will also be included.

As far as I know we've never had LARACON in Africa.
LARACON in Africa when?
Why not?
For those wondering, we're still writing code a lot of code manually in Africa.

Learn LARAVEL or lose local clients.
After tons of PHP projects, learning LARAVEL is not a big deal, really considering streaming.
What's your thought on moving the DB transaction bit to an action or service class? Also maybe a DTO class that takes in a request class and returns cleaned user input like making sure email is lowercase or upper depending on you use case, making sure name is title case etc?
I was being affected by a sickness called "Can't build, this already exists" and then Sensei @nunomaduro just comes and proves that we all can do better whether it exists or not. 🤦💎
Really felt inspired after watching the livestreams.
