Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 27/09/2026Ten years of Particle boards, Raspberry Pis, and relays trying to automate things in my house. It took Matter and two small SONOFF switches to finally make it just work. 🪄✨ New post: mikhailkozlov.com/ten-years-la... 010
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 22/09/2026Even MRI math is crazy! I shopped around and found a place that would do the same MRI for 400$ out of pocket 🤷♂️ 001
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 21/09/2026Was trying to connect to a networked printer for 2 hours last week! Just to realize that I was connected to a different wifi 🤦♂️ 110
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 17/09/2026If you're really driving down, Santa Cruz via Highway 17 is a must! 😂 The water is probably fine to touch 🥶 The Crow's Nest used to be pretty good down there, and you should definitely hit up Los Gatos Meats & Smokehouse for a sandwich on the way and stack up on beef jerky. Los Gatos is pretty too 010
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 17/09/2026It's been a while, but check out University Ave in Palo Alto and the Stanford campus. Stop by at Terun Pizza (it is not on University anymore sadly, but worth it) for a pie and some vino! If you're driving, Half Moon Bay is really pretty, too. 110
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 14/09/2026 panem et circenses! Nothing new here, sadly! Just the history repeats itself. 000
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 14/09/2026In case you ever wonder why my avatar looks the way it does 🤷♂️ #php 😂 #laravel 🚀 020
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 01/09/2026Fine-tuning reminder emails on @signupbreeze.com 🛠️ Anchoring timeless shifts to 8am for countdown math produced gems like: "your shift is in 1 day 21 minutes." 🤦♂️ Fixed the logic - they now read: today, tomorrow, or in N days 🥳 010
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 29/08/2026Geo Metro Hatchback had a $6,995 sticker price at the dealer at that time! 😬 010
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 14/07/2026Try something like offtherecord.com. Yes, you pay more, but no points or record of moving violation. 000
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 18/06/2026Just blew away all local MySQL databases 😭 Is it Friday yet? 010
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 01/06/2026I've been looking for an excuse to use parental from @tighten.com for a while now! Finally got one! 020
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 15/05/2026I guess as long as you can remember you built them and why, it is not that bad of an idea. The whole premise is code is the easiest part of solving the problem, especially if AI writes it. For me, I just sometimes look at the repo and can't remember why in the world I did that 🤦♂️ 020
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 15/05/2026Awesome day at Upstate PHP — thanks to @bogdankharchenko.com for organizing! @shanedrosenthal.bsky.social, Super NativePHP looks, well, super! 🚀 Thank you, @ryanhefner.com, for casually normalizing building a side project to keep your side project running 😜 140
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 07/05/2026I click eBay ads just to identify the objects. It's staggering how much we make, but the real intensity lies in how the cycle of "new" is accelerating. We’re churning out gear at such a breakneck speed that I can’t even fathom a use for half of it. Progress is hitting warp speed 🚀 #Consumerism ⏩ 020
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 05/05/2026I got tired of spreadsheet chaos and clunky, ad-heavy volunteer signups. So I’m building SignUpBreeze: a mobile-first, ad-free volunteer scheduling tool. Share one link, they pick a shift, done. 🚀 #BuildInPublic #SaaS #indiehackers #Laravel #wemustship 1130
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 20/04/2026I did not take a picture, but Costco is there too 😂 110
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 18/04/2026@anthropic.com is trying to easy everyone into the weekend with claude.ai/design 🤯 000
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 27/03/2026Awesome event! Thank you Laravel Cloud for hosting! I think I even won something 🥳 030
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 20/03/2026TIL: Metro Atlanta is home to 17 Fortune 500 companies! 🏙️ Ranked 4th in the U.S. for HQ density, the city continues to be a magnet for the world's biggest brands. Funny how 404 is leading the way in innovation and industry. 📈 #ATL #Atlanta #Fortune500 #TechHub 000
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 02/03/2026Maybe I need to try them, but in general I’m not big fan of noise cancellation 🤷♂️ 100
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 02/03/2026I have to say that basic gen 4 AirPods sound really good! 100
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 12/02/2026This is really cool! Love Perpetuity for some reason :) 110
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 11/02/2026Are use Senty in anything that gets the production, but I have used anything from Envoy heartbeats to Datadog 😀 Nightwatch has been on my to-do list for a bit now. I need new project! 010
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 11/02/2026Not really. This is usually I start looking at Horizon. 110
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 11/02/2026It used to be strictly Redis, but lately I’ve been using mostly DB up to the point I want to introduce Horizon. 110
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 10/02/2026I've spent 10 days away from my computer and the internet (mostly due to poor connection). Can I get a refund for tokens that I have not used? 🤓 000
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 25/01/2026Rest of the current situation in US sadly sucks hard 🙁 000
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 25/01/202683 days since I started rewriting my 2014-era Laravel 4.2 project. The real win is the tech leap: in under 3 months, AI went from "slop" to generating production-ready code I can commit immediately. What a time to be building! 100
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 21/01/2026Good luck! I’ve had that thought every year since we bought the house 🤦♂️ 020
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 21/01/2026Yesterday I tried to one-shot a little helper app (aka spreadsheet) for myself using @filamentphp.com Blueprint and Claude. Did it get to working state? - Yes! Is it usable? - Probably 🤷♂️ Is it a good starting point? - Yes! Models are pretty clean, UI is a mess, but not in a bad complicated way... 010
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 16/01/2026Echoing @mostlytechnical.com's host's comments: Laravel Forge Redesign is amazing! 🤩🚀 I cannot believe that I've been a customer since 2014! 030
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 16/12/2025EU listeners probably familiar with Metro stores that have similar concept to Costco. I wonder who is going to spoil what receipt people do at Costco 🍿 000
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 28/08/2025Just update to the latest version before you sell the house and it will run for another 20 years without anyone touching it. 110
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 14/06/2025History’s echo grows louder with each return - familiar shadows on a fragile path. May we carry our hard-learned lessons forward and steer this next refrain toward mercy and light 🙏 000
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 26/05/2025+1 I thought it had something to do with not being native speaker 🤷♂️ 020
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 06/03/2025I'm sure all documents are different, but I've had flawless experience moving markdown into Confluence 🤷♂️ Good luck! 010
Mikhail Kozlov @mikhailkozlov.com · 02/03/2025One thing I know for sure now, @laravel is used at IBM 🥳 010
