8 weeks for paternity leave. I didn’t sleep, fed and changed a baby, and helped keep the other 3 little humans alive. It’s exactly what I expected. Didn’t so much as answer an email or write a single line of code. Came back exhausted and not very refreshed lol.

Tress of the Emerald Sea is another really good standalone Sanderson novel.

And DTO fields can be typed as whole other DTOs (composable, reusable). All DTOs extend a base class and all attributes extend a base attribute class with "hooks" (functions) for different functionality.
Another benefit is being able to generate fake API responses for testing from the DTO itself.

Sure! My (slightly nasty 🫣) DTOs use reflection heavily to introspect the type of a field to generate a list of validation rules. I use custom attributes on the DTO properties to make it more fine grained (ex. date format).

I found an interesting use case for using them with DTO properties to provide validation for third party API responses.

@mattstauffer.com at one time setup the Torch repo which gave some examples of how it could be used outside of the framework (github.com/mattstauffer...). But it’s only up to date with Laravel 8.x. And not really set up to work as a standalone package. I still found it helpful though.

Just came back from 7 weeks of paternal leave 2 weeks ago . Don’t think you forget how to code… you just forget all of the context for every single project you were working on before. Takes a few weeks to get it all back in your head. Good luck!

I just turned 30 and I hope to reach that milestone one day as well. Whether or not the main meat has a name or is my first born. Lazy people are smarter or something?

How do you balance family and work? Just coming back to work from a leave for baby 4. By 11 am after getting kids to preschool/daycare and working for a couple hours I’m ready to sleep again. Days I get a lot of work done, my evenings are shot. Literal zombie mode. Might be a 0.25x dev problem?
