Someone posted a commit about cycling, but I can’t find it now.
But here’s my contribution to /dev/null cycling club: the sunny fall ride.

I'm prepping a deploy that has migrations that take 7 minutes on my localhost. I hope I can still deploy with Laravel Envoyer, it's going to be close!
I might need to move some of the data from migrations to artisan commands, but it's data that I don't expect to update often, so…
Handed off work from a Claude chat to Claude code. It was pretty clunky involving a ZIP file of handoff data. I wish that I could just tell Claude Code "Continue conversation <UUID> here" or something like that.
Thinking I should really merge the Laravel Shift PRs that I always leave hanging.
That's @jbeales's root commit.
