@taylorotwell @gonedark the most frustrating part of Laravel upgrades is waiting for your dependencies to support the new version. I can submit PRs but some maintainers take awhile to respond. Many packages only depend on illuminate/support for ServiceProvider and Facade.

Maybe a new illuminate/package could be created that contains ServiceProvider and Facade and follows Semver and only changes the version if there are breaking changes. Since the version would rarely change, many packages would not need changes for new versions of Laravel

One common piece of advice we give our clients often at Tighten is that they need to reduce the friction to releasing code more frequently. Here's a great presentation about why this is so important. HT the brilliant @sara_bine. frequentdeploys.club/

As a programmer you will find there are some things that are similar but just different enough to cause frustration: POSIX shell vs Bash Regular expressions vs PCRE GNU Linux commands vs BSD commands Can you think of any others?
I suspect a modular monolith is often better than microservices and still allows for team autonomy.

All hail the majestic monolith! I love @DCoulbourne comments describing how it feels to use a great framework to build a monolith. @noplanstomerge

I spent some time debugging a long running data import process that failed after 30 minutes. I initially suspected a memory leak but it turned out to be a file descriptor leak. I was able to graph the number of open files over time by using smag github.com/aantn/smag

If there is one thing progrmmers are good at, it is building layers of abstraction. It’s turtles all the way down and you better hope you are building on good turtles 🐢

Now that Microsoft Edge is based on Chromium, I've been using it and love the built-in vertical tabs combined with tab grouping. And then with VS Code and GitHub I am using more Microsoft products than I realized.

In case of emergency delete file.
💾 Something I've done previously is pre-allocate space on a server. If that server ever runs out of space, I can simply delete the temp file and quickly regain a few GB whilst I fix the issue.
