@deraafmedia Coming soon... Jeffrey WAI

I am not even looking for a job and this sounds exasperating and depressing, can't imagine if someone really needs the job and are looking. Maybe these things are only meant to be done for a specific job that you really, really want get and not for every single potential job because it is just impossible. It is called "job hunting" not "job luring".

I'd rather apply to 50 positions a day with the same resume and hope for the best than spend a couple of days conceptualizing, designing, developing a website for a specific role, only to find that applications are closed the moment the website build is complete, or even if I do send it through, not receive any reply at all.

And doing all of this stuff would not really guarantee the candidate a job anyway, but it would make sorting through the applications easier for the recruiter. So it is actually helping the recruiter more than the candidate. So it makes sense coming from you now because I assume you do more job applications reviewing than actually applying in the way you described.

@Ispilledteaonthecarpet those are fair points!

Lol this is the most dramatic episode i've seen so far. Absolute cinema 🙌

This is once again a feature that can be very beneficial , if you know what you are doing. Or it can overload a server very quickly once in production. The pro's and con's of making things so simple that people just use it without knowing what really is going down behind the scenes.

You mentioned facades get a lot of criticism. Can you recommend any good resources where can we learn more about these opinions? I'd also be interested in hearing your standpoint on this matter in more depth.

Keep up the good work!

I noticed that Prettier throws an error when you try to format a file with code written thus:

public function __construct(protected $invoicePath) {
	//
}

but it's fine with this (the way I'm used to):

protected string $invoicePath;

public function __construct(string $invoicePath) {
	$this->invoicePath = $invoicePath;
}

...which led me to the php docs to learn about constructor promotion. Follow every rabbit hole! Now Prettier needs to catch up...
