🎙️ Just published a new episode of Mostly Technical: 142: Aaron's a VP at Laravel?!. Have a listen:

Carnival rides? Bounce houses? Anything that's not a permanent ride? Absolutely not. This week @ianlandsman.com & @aaronfrancis.com talk about why these rides are no good and Aaron reminisces about a very unfortunate incident involving Big Tex at the Texas State Fair 🫠

Will we all still be reading and writing every line of code in 10 years? 3 years? 6 months? @ianlandsman.com & @aaronfrancis.com talk through this dilemma and wonder if we're still better at writing code, does that matter - are the machines good enough?

This week on MT @aaronfrancis.com's got a new theory he's trying out on @ianlandsman.com: In the AI era, languages don't matter as much - but frameworks & ecosystems, especially batteries-included frameworks like @laravel.com, increasingly do 🔥

To find a new business opportunity, ask: "Where are people/businesses spending money right now?" and "Where are people/businesses looking to spend money right now?"

This week @ianlandsman.com and @aaronfrancis.com discuss Ian's misadventures with poker, a huge update for Solo (Windows!), why Aaron thinks languages don't matter but frameworks & ecosystems do 🌶️, and so much more.

🎙️ Just published a new episode of Mostly Technical: 138: Back In The Game. Have a listen:

Does using AI mean you shouldn't care about your code anymore? No. This week @aaronfrancis.com talks to @coulb.com & @johnrudolphdrexler.com about his Live UK talk and why you should let go of writing code, but never stop caring about the code.

This week on MT, @aaronfrancis.com and the Thunk boys talk about understanding your code at a deeper level and code smells and….then it goes off the rails. But have no fear - Aaron rescues it with a flawless transition to an ad read. No notes.

This week @ianlandsman.com and @aaronfrancis.com discuss Aaron's new employee, the latest on Outro, a surprise trip to Portland, and more.

🎙️ Just published a new episode of Mostly Technical: 133: Do The Hardest Thing with Jesse Hanley. Have a listen:

Getting hired isn't a game of chance, it's a game of skill. This week @ianlandsman.com's mad because he's read so many garbage resumes - and @aaronfrancis.com thinks he knows why. If you think getting a job is a game of chance, you're doing it wrong.

Right in the middle of a harrowing (and incredible) story, @aaronfrancis.com does what any seasoned podcaster would do. He transitions to an ad read.

@ianlandsman.com and @aaronfrancis.com discuss the most harrowing experience of Aaron's life (complete with the funniest ad transition in Mostly Technical history), talk about Ian's trip to the Laravel Roadshow in NYC, and dive into what's cooking with Solo.

This year at Laracon US we're hosting...LaraProm?! In a gymnasium!?! @ianlandsman.com's so excited about this idea that he interrupted @aaronfrancis.com's vacation to talk about it.

This Friday at 11:30am Eastern I'll be live with @mattstauffer.com, @ianlandsman.com, and UConn's Joel Salisbury to talk all about finding your first job in tech - how to use (and not use) AI in your job search, how to stand out in a crowded job market, & more! www.youtube.com/watch?v=B-mX...

I was graciously invited by @mattstauffer.com to join this week's episode of The Laravel Podcast ❤️ We talked about partnerships, community, my obsession with UConn sports (very important), and a lot more. laravelpodcast.com/episodes/the...

. @aaronfrancis.com wonders how are people using 8 agents in a code base? How can you tell the app works? Where’s all this software that’s being built - why aren’t these people shipping! This week on MT, @ianlandsman.com knows why - it’s fake and made up for attention!

This week @ianlandsman.com and @aaronfrancis.com discuss their trip to Laracon EU, the all-new Solo, using the AI SDK for Outro, "poker propaganda", Gen Z Abby's 2004 camera, and so much more.

Treasure on Bean Island! From the 1880's! It's absolutely, totally still there. There's no chance that almost 150 years of floods would have washed anything away.

Massie: "Donald Trump told us that even though he had dinner with these people in NYC and West Palm Beach, that he would be transparent. But he's not. He's still in with the Epstein class. This is the Epstein administration."

Cheese and Weather has returned! Lost treasure! Laracon EU planning! Snowmen at the petrol station! A disastrous trip to the car wash! Aspirational corporate shilling!
