This sentiment from @jamesclear.bsky.social feels true:
"Bad things happen loudly: the injury, the flat tire, the mistake that gets you criticized.
Good things happen quietly: the completed workout, the healthy meal, the ten minutes of writing. Nobody talks about the little moments that add up."

Toast notifications on Laravel Cloud have a sliding darker background that subtly indicates when the notification will disappear. Inspired by that, I decided to try implementing something similar using @calebporzio.bsky.social Flux. It turned out pretty great!

Google allows me to install a watcher on a calendar, and notifies me about changes on it (pretty cool). But why can't they send me the id of the event that changed, instead of sending a post request to my app WITH NO INFO AT ALL and now I have figure out what changed on god knows which event?
