Laravel tip: add a local-only route to preview all your email templates in one place.
Mailables render as HTML when returned from routes. Add as many as you need.
No more "send test, check inbox, tweak, repeat."

For a complex refactor, nothing beats Cursor for now.
Being able to see the code, chat with the code, and have that rather quick feedback loop with models like composer-1 is such a fun way to refactor a codebase.

My Macbook just got asked to confirm my Canadian phone number. This is still a thing even for Apple in 2025.

I trust it enough and have the proper guardrails in place to live dangerously and no longer need to approve every little thing.
