I accidentally spent the day training my own AI model* to write better Laravel code 😅
With a side quest of it saying 'howdy' enough times 😉 This stuff is FASCINATING, I've not felt so lost in a long time, it's awesome 🤩

I had stuff to do, so instead I started building a mobile app I've been dreaming about for a while 🫶
Of course using NativePHP 🙌 Really nice to go from an empty repo to iterating in the emulator in 30 minutes 📲

Your terminal can detect the exact pixel your mouse is on, and can draw RGBA pixels, so obviously you build MS Paint in your terminal with PHP 😅

Experimenting with a video content management system with 'quick record' buttons 🎬
So I can organize my channels and videos, then quickly record takes/videos linked to them 👌 Automatically organized with the correct names, into the correct folder hierarchy 🫶

This is crazy - I built a screen recorder in Laravel 🤯
There's so much more possibility here, so much more I want to be able to do. It's going to be so simple to record, edit, and manage an entire video course 🔥 Let's freakin' go!

I am not a smart man 😩 I just wrote PHP to partially parse ProRes video files? 😅
This shows PHP spawning framecap to record my cam, then extracting a frame from the file it's writing to, wrapping it in a moov header, converting it to PNG, then showing that back in my terminal 😅

🔮 Keeping track of the kids' homework situation is painful 😩
So, I built an MCP tool so Claude Desktop and I can co-parent 😂
It logs into the necessary portals and parses the due homework for me, so now life is _slightly_ easier 😌
