couldn't wait
PHP Laravel code showing how to break text into sentences using locale conventions. $locale = "en_US"; $i = IntlBreakIterator::createSentenceInstance($locale); $i->setText($text); foreach ($i->getPartsIterator() as $sentence) { echo $sentence . PHP_EOL . "----------" . PHP_EOL; } Output from the previous Laravel code example. Laravel is a web application framework with expressive, elegant syntax. ---------- A web framework provides a structure and starting point for creating your application, allowing you to focus on creating something amazing while we sweat the details. ----------

ADHD delayed it 2 years.

A simple post from a fellow developer, 10 minutes, and a burst of ADHD....my Upsy Desky is connected and operational

One thing I wasnt expecting is the desk control box powering the ESP32 board. nice!

Thank you @christophrumpel.bsky.social

Hey @alexjustesen.com, thanks for github.com/alexjustesen...!

I came across for the homelab and the name looked very familiar. We had just chatted about Laravel Sail and cross-subdomain session cookies during development.

Small world!

Sports stat focused AI fails too apparently. Though ChatGPT gave a result, no clue if its accurate since the way to verify is the old web, which is dead 🤪
Screenshot of results from statsmuse.com for the NBA query "largest single game comeback". The result is "Sorry, I can't answer questions about comebacks...yet".
