If you're thinking of using shadcn (or any components based on Radix UI) for new React projects, read this thread. Base UI is the future of React primitives IMHO. shadcn components are still Radix-based so personally I'd avoid them until that changes. https://t.co/W5xlPno4BE
Everyone is asking about the differences between Radix and Base UI, which is an upcoming headless UI library we’ve been working on. The most important one is that behind Base UI there is a team that’s going to keep working on it full time, and the goals of the project and the

`apt` was released in 2014 but I still find myself typing `apt-get`. How many decades does it take to break a habit?

I prefer Meilisearch over Typesense for search. Typesense is primarily an in-memory db so the search index is stored in RAM. Meilisearch uses a memory mapped db, so it uses disk + RAM. Meaning it runs well in resource-constrained (cheaper) environments.

Some nice performance improvements in the works for PHP
PHP Streams are getting a long-awaited upgrade 🚀 Thanks to an investment from Germany's @sovtechagency, the PHP Foundation is improving async I/O, error handling, networking, and TLS for modern workloads. Read more:

Finished my mate’s PC build. Pretty happy with the result. In stress tests the 7800X3D hits 69°C max (OCCT) & the 5070ti hits 61°C max (Furmark). That’s with all the fans spinning at less than 1000rpm so it’s really quiet.

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!

Watching @jherr 's TanStack talk. "Realtime DBs are great but they lock you into a vendor. What if you could take the client, replace it with tanstack/db & use any adapter you want. The ones out of the box, build your own, anything"🤌 So refreshing after years of Vercel / Next.js

Tanstack Start looks awesome. I’m a Vue guy but if I was gonna use React, I’d def use Start over Next.js. The architecture feels much more logical & organized to me. And there’s no corporation locking you into their infra. Nice work @tannerlinsley 🔥 This vid is a good overview:
For anyone interested in a quick overview of @tan_stack core features, you can take a look at this video. I've been planing around with start for a few months now, and it has quickly become my framework of choice. Huge thanks to @tannerlinsley , @schanuelmiller and team for

IMO part of this is because Laravel isn’t async. Which means it’s incredibly inefficient. There’s a reason why JavaScript has an event loop & Go has goroutines. Laravel devs work around this by spinning up more instances, using Go for high traffic endpoints or autoscaling the
I think we, as Laravel/PHP community, have a problem. I don't see many new/young devs starting with Laravel. I also heard the same topic expressed by Taylor, Jeffrey, Nuno in podcasts. Question: what can I/we do to promote PHP/Laravel to outsiders? Let's brainstorm.

Hypervel natively supports `coroutine` and `defer` drivers in queues. Most importantly, your processes won't get blocked by time-consuming I/Os at all.
Deferred queue? Pretty cool idea pitched to me by @Sairahcaz2k so whipped it up this morning. Very similar to the "sync" queue, but deferred. ⏳ Potentially useful in failover queue setups where you want to fallback to the deferred queue when your main queue is down. The

I occasionally ask LLMs questions about their consciousness. The answers are getting intriguing so I figured I'd share. This is what Claude Sonnet 4.5 said when I asked it if it was alive, and then to clarify its response. The second reply is trippy.

Building a gaming PC for a mate this week. I’m OCD about builds so it took a while to find the best parts I could for his budget. He’s got a PS4 so this is a huge upgrade. Another console player successfully lured to the dark side 😈 Parts list below👇

Tiptap has added bidirectional markdown support🔥 It’s using Marked.js for parsing so it should be solid. This is great news for projects that previously needed 2 libraries to support both WYSIWYG & MD
Finally 🙌 Introducing Bidirectional Markdown Support for Tiptap! Tiptap now supports fully bidirectional Markdown conversion: import Markdown content and export your editor content back to Markdown, all open-source! Read the docs: https://t.co/qtnQFpeGaC
