Had a special "in studio guest" today. My kid brought her dog Ollie. She looked at us and said "You make Ollie look normal sized". For those who don't know me, I'm about 6'4.

Got a preview of @mattstauffer of @tightenco recorded interview with @MikePageDev and @ccmiller2018 on PHP Alive and Kicking, which will air on Friday this week. One of my favorite people in the PHP world. I highly recommend checking it out when it's released […]

Have you ever had one of those weeks where all you are doing is waiting for the weekend to get some project done, and then the weekend gets here and you're like "Nah, I'm good"

I have so many questions.
1 How did they come up with this?

3 Where can I get one?

I have to admit, this is an image I never thought I would see: Bill Gates and Linus Torvalds. https://www.reddit.com/r/pics/comments/1lg9omq/bill_gates_and_linus_torvalds_meet_for_the_first/

If you listened to last week's podcast you have an uneventful idea what's going on. If not, plumbing issue. Now my houses sounds like an airport runway.

Editing videos for PHP TEK 2025, and this slide still has me laughing. For content, this was the start of a father/son talk by @pmeth and Easton Meth

It's 2:09 AM, the last day of @phptek, can't sleep, and more importantly, I can't stop thinking about #nativephp.
Welp, I guess it's fine to fire up a new project and play with NativePHP for a little while.

Appearently TailwindCSS, the utility-first CSS framework, can be a replacement for Hootsuite, the social media management platform. I think someone used the wrong "Tailwind" logo in their video. Or maybe they are suggesting you just build your own 🤣

The one photo of me was taken 13 years ago on my last day at Sony Electronics. I made some great friends there. Thanks to them and the support of my wonderful wife, my life journey started on a new path. I worked at Sony for over 7 years. About a year later, I […]
