6 years as an employee and every single request I've made here has been denied. Just a number to them. The death of a passionate, dreamer programmer.

For me that I'm italian is a good feature the subtitles! But in this video you say that I can enable also Audio translations, maybe now have you disabled this feature?

fixed by deleting all from Valet configuration. Maybe also custom resolver TLD was the problem, is it possible? Can't I change from .test to .local in Herd? All my project use .local, now I have to change all values inside databases?

ls /etc/resolver local test

There are other types of problems, maybe permissions with Nginx?

Hi everyone,
after upgrading my Mac to macOS Tahoe 26 I’m having issues with local domains.

Before the update I was using Laravel Valet without any problems. After the upgrade, none of my .local projects are reachable anymore. I also tried Laravel Herd, but the behavior is the same.

When I visit example.local the browser can’t resolve the domain.
If I manually map it to 127.0.0.1, the domain resolves, but Herd shows a "site not found" page saying the project is not in the parked paths.

What’s strange is that:

• ping example.local resolves to 127.0.0.1
• the project folder is inside ~/Sites
• Sites is already parked in Herd

This makes me suspect a macOS-related DNS or permissions change after the update.

Has anyone experienced something similar on Tahoe?
Any idea what I should check next?

Thanks 🙏

I’m 34 and honestly the industry feels completely different today. Finding a developer job in Italy has become incredibly hard, even with years of experience—hundreds of applicants in just a few hours for a single position. Years ago companies were actively searching for programmers, but now the market is saturated, partly due to bootcamps sending out the message that anyone can become a developer quickly.

In Italy, programming has always been undervalued and underpaid, in some cases less than teaching, and now the role itself is starting to disappear as more tools allow people to build products without knowing how to program. AI isn’t a “friend of developers” but rather a friend of employers and anyone who once had a great idea but couldn’t afford to hire a programmer. A sad time, while developers are even helping train the models that may replace them.
