One really big fun change vs. bad offshore work: We're not just rescuing bad vibe code. We're also working, with love and delight, with clients who vibe code their requirements and then ask us to make it legit/stable. This is fun!

I've been saying for a while that we, as expert Laravel developers, are just moving a lot of our projects from rescuing bad offshore work to rescuing bad vibe code. You still need the experts.
I just finished up a call with someone who had vibe-coded an error into a revenue-generating application that cost the company 6 figures in (fortunately recoverable) lost revenue. It's recoverable because two developers with a combined 40 years of experience managed to unwind the problem.

Finally got around to working on some data mining and processing for www.wyrimaps.net/wow/ by generating the in-game world maps. With some varying success, while to a certain degree, these maps are technically somewhat correct. They make no sense.

Got a new fun home automation project to play with in the coming days: Open #Epaper displays with openepaperlink.de

Currently figuring out the optimal position for this AP to get the base range out of it before adding all the automations to @home-assistant.io.
