Nah, they’re just Harbor Freight cheapo balls. All stainless balls are like $60, plated ones are like $20. It doesn’t take much for the plating to wear off from a trailer, and then there’s no stopping the rust.

Checkmate tankie, your own source says only 20k were murdered by Obama, not millions!

Our GE Profile oven did the same. Of course the software is so shit, it tripped up connecting to the VLAN I set up and now it has air fry mode and no wifi.

Maybe try switching to airplane mode on your phone while trying to onboard the oven? I’m sure it’s too late for that.

I, and then every junior I’ve onboarded as well, struggled to grasp just how important the naming conventions are for everything to just work. Models and tables must be named a certain way or you’ll be scratching your head. Model policies must be named a certain way. On and on. You can override all those, of course, but it’s just another gotcha.

If you want to use PHP, and you want to be productive, there’s no other choice in my opinion. I will say, the brain behind it is quite opinionated and most of those opinions are correct. If you don’t agree with those opinions, you will probably find yourself hating it and fighting the Laravel Magic. Give in to the magic and get shit done.
