It may seem like a harmless debugging tool, with a bunch of boring config values and version numbers, but phpinfo() is a goldmine of sensitive data - even when it's "protected" in an admin account!

The PHP community's resident API curmudgeon, @Philsturgeon, has a new post on setting up HTTP caching with Laravel Vapor.
"It's worth the work, because it cuts down on costs, and even helps reduce the carbon impact of your software, so it's basically rude not to turn it on."

Yesterday I had a fun discussion with my son who had written a seeder to create the inital admin user in his Laravel project.
So that led me to write this blog post about Laravel’s PromptsForMissingInput
interface, which I only discovered a few weeks ago, and absolutely love it:

Anne, my lady who lunches, sits on 3rd sector boards and volunteers me for stuff , got me do to a little app for a group a while ago, they’d now like chat functionality. So over the next few days I’m going to be having fun adding a Laravel reverb service to it. Never used reverb so a useful learning experience. #laravel #php #codinglife Need to upgrade the Laravel version too.
Cancelled envoyer.io a couple of weeks ago (US based). This week I had a few changes to deploy so I played around with deployer. Docs are not very clear, so getting up to speed was a bit more of a challenge than I would have liked, but in the end, succeeded. Much quicker to deploy than using envoyer.io, and more versatile.
Worth noting that deployer handles load balanced site quite gracefully.
Thinking about the wasteful nature of #LLMs got me thinking about waste in my own development. While it can be convenient to use the large, enterprise-grade frameworks to deliver a minimalist website in 2025 - it's absurd.
Do I really need #laravel with #react, #jquery, #tailwind, #webFonts, #postgres to host some simple #markdown?
Do I need to re-render a bunch of static content at every hit? Does every simple article require 64 connections to the server to display?
I think not.
I want my material to be available to anyone who wants it - regardless of the device they are using or the robustness of their connection.
I want to respect users who disable #javascript for their personal protection.
I want to respect #ScreenReaders and users of assistive technology, without unnecessary complexity.
Everything we need is built into the HTML and CSS specs.
