I moved my @astro.build blog from Fly.io to @laravel.com Cloud to keep more of my deployments in one place. Astro isn't officially supported, but its standalone Node server works with one important tweak: bind it to :: hedger.ch/posts/2026/a...

Two months ago, I weighed 163.5 kg. By July 21, I was down to 148.9 kg. I wrote about why I started, the simple plan I’m following, and why my first milestone matters: getting back on my bike. hedger.ch/posts/2026/t...

Two months into my weight-loss journey

Why I started at 163.5 kg, what changed after Sevilla, and why getting back on my bike makes 140 kg my first meaningful milestone.

I wanted to embed terminal recordings in my blog, so I built astro-asciinema. It lets you import a local .cast file and render it with a simple @astro.build component. hedger.ch/posts/2026/a...

Terminal recordings for Astro with astro-asciinema

Making asciinema recordings feel like native Astro assets, including when the site changes theme.

Hey @exoscale.com, when clicking the login button on your home page, we're being shown the login page even if we're already authenticated. It would be nice if you could fix this paper cut by redirecting already authenticated users to the portal.

Hey @proton.me, can you stop pushing offers in the desktop mail client? I’m already paying for the highest-tier plan, so upgrade prompts make no sense. Yes, I can hide them. But why show them at all?

Please consider sponsoring @azjezz.bsky.social, who's building Mago, a fast and modern toolchain for PHP written in Rust. mago.carthage.software github.com/sponsors/azj...

Ouch. Regretting the macOS Tahoe upgrade.

Received this 20% coupon from @jetbrains.com for an individual PhpStorm license for which I have no use because I already have one. Expires tomorrow, and can only be redeemed once, so better be quick. 7NZ9N-KK6PQ-UARWG-BFWSW-CHB8K

Biome 2.1 has been released! It's a relatively minor maintenance release, but still has some goodies: * Faster scanner * Improved type inference * New rules * Many fixes! biomejs.dev/blog/biome-v...

I spent some time working with Prometheus today and needed Promtool to validate my configurations before deployment. Since I couldn’t find a clean and straightforward way to integrate Promtool into GitHub Actions, I put together this simple setup action. github.com/marketplace/...

TypeORM is such a pain to work with.

All editors are like AI this, AI that. I just want configurable line height in my VS Code sidebar

Just found out I can basically have #DataGrip inside #PhpStorm. No more switching between windows. Legendary move by @jetbrains.com

What's you go to solution for representing the concept of pushing/pulling data in a diagram? I mean how do you differentiate when the arrows go in the same direction? Do you just label the arrows?

I swear, if I hear vibe coding one more time...

Man I wish I could drop the `<?php` start tag when editing a pure PHP file

Made this little GitHub Action to trigger deployments on Laravel Cloud. Yes it's an overkill cURL wrapper, no I don't mind. github.com/marketplace/...

It looks like Laravel Cloud doesn't (yet) support pnpm or bun. Not gonna lie; going back to npm is brutal.

Just release v1 of my #Inertia extension for VS Code. It fixes a long-standing issue where autocompletion items would show the absolute path in Windows under some conditions. marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemNa...

Been using singular table names in Laravel for some time, and this little trait has become my best friend.

I love Jetbrains product, but man just let me remove all the cruft around the windows. It's eating precious real estate. I don't even want the title bar.

If you're one of the early adopters of #Mago, you may find it easier to set it up in GitHub Actions thanks to this setup-mago GitHub Action I made. github.com/marketplace/... #php

I wish Timescale would consider opening a region in Switzerland. I need the data hosted here, but the Timescale License prevents other cloud providers from selling managed TimescaleDB Community Edition, even in areas where they aren't deployed.

Official #Docker images for Biome are here! 🐳 If you're using #GitLab CI, they'll definitely make your experience smoother. Check out our docs for all details: biomejs.dev/guides/manua...
