Not sure if anyone else feels the same but these days my bottleneck for productivity is not waiting for others to review my PRs anymore but actually reviewing what each of my Claude instances produced.
Yh newsletters is something I’ve been thinking about as well but I’m just bad with those 😅 But will give it a try!
And in regards to community, I feel like I’m so out of the loop these days that I don’t even know anymore what the community landscape looks like at the moment
Back in the days, I used to stay up to date with what happens in the Laravel community by just following some key people on Twitter. Now that I've left that platform and moved here, I feel like I'm not catching up on the same amount of information. What do you folks do to stay up to date?
My 23 weeks @buffer.com streak is lost 😭😭 😭
More than 60 days that I started at @buffer.com and I still need to get used to someone saying "Have a nice weekend" on a Thursday evening call 🙈
I used to go to friends and have Super Bowl parties in Germany but somehow it’s not that common here in the UK.
But watching the game at an Irish Pub is always a solid choice!
Crazy idea, what if your desk was the PC case. It’s a thick “box” that could fit a lot of components, why couldn’t this work?
I'm due for another iteration of my personal website rathes.me and I am wondering if I should try a version that has no navigation at all and everything is based off the homepage.
You can navigate my website without the navbar already but I am thinking of removing the top navigation altogether 🤔
Any parents that work on side projects? How do you manage that? I would love to work on some of mine but the last few weeks if not months, I've just been too tired at the end of the day 😴😪 😅
So, can I just ask Openclaw to earn as much money as possible and it will just do the work for me in the background? 🙈😂
It’s this kind of day today 😅
Picture of a garden office
Love this!
I always wanted to have this one ever since our little one got my office room for his nursery. One side is the office and the other side a home gym.
But it’s quite expensive to realize so I have to wait and save a bit for it 😅
Yep, that’s the case. Previously I used Cursor for everything but I’ve switched and Cursor as my editor feels like overkill?
I’m currently using purely Claude Code in the terminal and then only use Cursor for reviewing these changes and sometimes make quick manual changes. Do I still need Cursor then? 🤔
Is there anything I can do with Cursor here that would improve my flow?
Found my native language #Tamil 😍
With AI tools, everybody can build tools now that nobody uses 😅🙈
Hope your sons has a speedy recovery. Having an ill baby at home is such a hard time, please take your time to focus on family!
Nice! My links page rathes.me/links is literally just a hardcoded page.
But I was curious because I also built a Link in Bio tool in the past and it was hard to actually offer something different that the target group actually cared about.
Yes, it’s such a great service! They were the first ones to offer text to speech in Tamil with such a good quality that even Google couldn’t compete against for a long time
Curious, who were the big players that you’ve had a look at?
Please help me fight the urge to build my own calendar component 🙏🏾😅
Looks like I need new running shoes. What’s the one I should’ve get for the time until the new Pegasus are coming out?
I’m about to start Dan Browns “The Secret of Secrets”, I really hope it’s closer to the first few of the Robert Langdon books.
I've been going for early morning runs (waking up at 5:30am and out at 6am) and while my running hasn't improved, I had a really nice side effect: I can kinda handle the cold better than I did before 🙈 I'll take that as a win!
The whole process of making an espresso in the morning is just so calming and relaxing. Nice hobby that you picked up! 🙌🏾
Wish you a speedy recovery Kelly 🙏🏾
Oh nice, maybe I should look into it more. Thanks for sharing 🙏🏾
I’m curious, how did you get into it? Like are you using free models and then modify them to learn how it all works or are there like tutorials and stuff out there?
I would love to try it but worry that the learning curve is too much for my limited time 😅
And I thought my 10 year streak of reviews was long but you’ve been sharing this for even longer 🙌🏾
Loved reading your personal wins section so much. Even though the year overall might have felt draining you had some really nice positive moments 😍
I truly loved reading your review! Wish you all the health and success in 2026!
