I don't know who needs to hear this, but:
Creating good quality software is still hard.
Yes LLMs can help.
But it's still hard.
Choose your challenge!

it’s 2026. build like you’re already going to get hacked, because sooner or later you probably will
collect less. only keep the customer data you actually need. anything you never store can’t leak
encrypt everything you keep. not just passwords and card numbers: names, emails, addresses, photos, uploads, all of it. if someone gets into your database or storage, they should find nothing they can read
delete what you don’t need anymore. old accounts, expired orders, stuff from years ago that nobody uses. set it up so it gets deleted automatically, not “someday"
don’t store tokens or api keys unless you really really really really have to. if you do, encrypt them hardcore or put them in a secrets manager. and either way, keep your encryption keys separate from the data they protect
basically: the less data you keep, the less you have to worry about when you get hacked

Cloudflare has deployed default web application firewall (WAF) protections for newly disclosed PHP vulnerabilities before public disclosure. The rules use request and response signals to stop exploit attempts and prevent exposed data from reaching attackers. cfl.re/488w8dc

This reduces your risk but doesn't fix the vulnerabilities in PHP. We recommend updating PHP to a patched version.
At 14:00 UTC two critical security vulnerabilities will be patched in PHP.
These are extremely serious vulnerabilities affecting every PHP application on the web.
Laravel Cloud customers: we will begin automatically patching your applications as soon as the patch is released. No manual action is required.
Laravel Forge customers: you will need to manually update your server’s PHP version via the server’s Forge dashboard. If you are unable to update your server, it should be powered down.
Laravel Vapor customers: we will begin automatically re-deploying applications running on PHP 8 as soon as the patch is released. No patch is being released for PHP 7 -- immediately update all applications to PHP 8.

Your side projects should be compounding very fast with AI. Every problem solved can be re-used or extracted into a generic module. Every design decision should make the next thing beautiful by default. Your agents should be constantly stealing from your past decisions.

A person who works with their hands is a laborer.
A person who works with their hands and their head is a craftsman.
A person who works with their hands, their head, and their heart is an artist.
Be an artist.

The older you get, the more you realize luck is just exposure.
If you sit in the same chair, same routine, talking to same people… nothing new happens.
You have to touch the world to win.
• Talk to strangers
• try a new coffee spot
• post on social
• Start a side hustle
The world rewards motion.
You don’t find opportunity sitting still.
You bump into it.
Taylor on AI, "I've never seen so much change since I started in software. Laravel is incredibly well positioned for the agentic era. It has conventions, clear documentation and 15 years of examples. I feel excited about the possibilities."

Did you know that SSDs use quantum tunnelling to store data? Or that we have to completely rewrite RAM every 30ms to prevent data from just dissipating?
If you did, then you can probably skip this chapter on how computers store data:
