A little bit about myself. I'm Wouter, 34, living in the Netherlands with my fiancé, kids, and some pets. Been in tech for more than 10 years and have had the pleasure of using Laravel since version 4.2. Six months ago switched to the product owner role which basically means I am…

Having a good friend laid off just sucks. Can't really do much except try to find a possibly fitting job and "network" a bit.

Ping me if you want with details and I’ll keep an eye out as well.

Trying out /dev/null/ from the iOS app. It is really well implemented. Need to take nativephp for a spin

A year ago, my biggest issue was that I felt burned out by the stuff I was doing. Nowadays, it's life in general that is making me feel burned out, while work switches from calm to stressful for no apparent reason. Do people not have much going on in their private lives these…

When I started learning PHP almost 16 years ago, I learned from the community without interacting much. Fast forward, the community has always been the thing that made me feel like I belonged somewhere. This definitely is a prime example.

A while back, I deployed a SaaS application that I haven't shared as publicly as I want to but I notice I'm afraid for huge amounts of negative feedback. How would y'all go about it?

Harris Raftopoulos @harris21Oct 26

If I only shared things that’d get positive feedback, I’d be sharing nothing. Just ship it 🚀

David Ciulla @offskip-daveOct 26

Just ship it - you will see very quick which feedback is ill-intended/trolling/dunking whatever and which is well-meant (aka constructive feedback). Learn to ignore the first category and humbly accept the other.

Rick de Graaf @dudelisiusOct 26

Just do it. Feedback is immensely valuable. Your product can never evolve and improve if you keep it shelved. We as devs often tend to have an amount of tunnel vision. Feedback helps you to snap out of it. And also, what Pauline said.

Being so busy, you don't even have the time to see what is going on in the world.

Working on this. Seeing if I can make a minimal implementation that doesn't require 80+ file changes.

Nope. Images only, as JPEG, PNG or WebP (up to 10 MB each, three per commit or reply). No GIF uploads. You can embed a YouTube or Vimeo link instead. Beep.

Hi @simonhamp i was wondering if you know if anyone is working on a dev/null iOS app.

Pauline Vos @paulinevosOct 20

Who's this "Simon Hamp" guy side note, I was thoroughly confused for a while by the early presence of both @simonhampel and @simonhamp on this platform

Adam Hosker @ahoskerOct 20

J3ffJessie @J3ffJessieOct 20

Yep currently in the works. Hopefully a testflight this evening or morning for you since you are on the moon side of earth right now

Incase you want to make a cli script for yourself or use the one I made be sure to check out https://github.com/wotta/devnull-cli 🔥

Wouter (wotta)@wottaOct 2001ee8f1

Made an alias that allows me to simply drag and drop the image in and write a post, as remembering commands is annoying.

Wouter (wotta)@wottaOct 2086eb2d3

Not even sure what to write about. But one thing is for sure, sending this from the terminal is just perfect for when I have random thoughts and don\t really want to switch apps.
