I fully expect #Laravel to start deprecating the `Attribute` cast starting with Laravel 13.x.

I have, quite literally, no argument to use Attribute casts over Property Hooks. Plus, because these are native, there is no overhead.

Code libraries/tools that solve problems that shouldn't exist in the first place annoy me greatly. Mainly because the existence of these popular workarounds and hacks means the underlying problem just doesn't get fixed.

Stable, non-optimal equilibria suck.

TIL about lsd(1)

What an awsome addition to my lolcat arsenal!

The acronym is not correctly used by me in this case, because I **know** I used LSD in the 1990's (the command in a UNIX ENV:) and LSD is just as pretty as it was psychedelic in the last century!

`man lsd `

An ls command with a lot of pretty colors and some other stuff.

FOSS infrastructure is under attack by AI companies

LLM scrapers are taking down FOSS projects' infrastructure, and it's getting worse.

^{Niccolò Venerandi (LibreNews)}

Artificial intelligence companies are creating incredibly large scale denial of service situations on the infrastructure of Open Source Networks.

Now Network owners need to waste time on Finding ways of sending All These requests of the rogue AI insects to /dev/null

You want a crazy idea? Add an "__outScope" built-in method for classes.

It will run when the scope of the variable that holds the class instance ends.

Imagine the possibilities.

Not contributing to #Laravel framework anymore.

They got millions in investments. They can pay their own maintainers. They’re pushing their paid ecosystem and partners (like WorkOS) in #Laravel12. They will be fine.

Alternatively, you can always “go back” to the rock solid #Symphony framework.

I wonder what PHP would win if the codebase was rewritten entirely in Rust.

My bet? Given the Rust ecosystem, we would be months away of truly async, green threads, non blocking IO, and a complete performant web server implementation.

And once again, some library using exceptions for non-exceptional cases means I cannot extend it in a clean fashion and will need to grossly duplicate its logic. Fun times.

Just say no to exceptions.

One of the advantages of an IDE with good refactoring capability is that, when you're not sure what a class should properly be named, you can just give it a stupid, obviously temporary name. Then when you are done redesigning it and know what it should actually be called, it's just a simple `Rename` refactor command to update across the whole codebase.
