What they believe
-
A subscription price increase is not justified by adding a minor AI feature.
My own trust has been dwindling lately - the price increases, pushing AI into the backend, and a general slide in product quality (that sidebar spacing gives me nightmares). I use AI agents daily myself, so it's not the AI that bothers me - it's justifying a price hike because you can now rename credentials with it.

What is a korrent?
A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at korrents.com.
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said. The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

Liked Mac OS
Both OS have their flaws. macOS just works better for me and my workflow.

Loved Sublime Text
After many years, Sublime Text remains one of my favourite code editors. I still often use it to edit huge files or to make heavy edits through its powerful find and replace feature.

- #odyssey 4.5/5 The soundtrack is a masterpiece. So well balanced. Always there but almost never in the center of attention. The IMAX sound mix for the cave scene almost destroyed my ears though. 18 Jul 2026

- Just published my Laracon EU 2026 recap. Lots of great talks this year — highlights for me were Dan Harrin on abstractions, Peter Suhm on unblocking users with AI, and Shane Rosenthal showing NativePHP rendering actual native iOS and Android elements. Also a good reminder to finally look more seriously at PostgreSQL. https://stefanzweifel.dev/posts/2026/03/12/laracon-eu-2026-recap/ #LaraconEU 12 Mar 2026

- RE: https://phpc.social/@stefanzweifel/116188833343980807 This was a productive train ride: I finally updated the Lambda Layer powering sidecar-browsershot to Puppeteer v24 and added automation to make maintenance much easier. https://github.com/stefanzweifel/sidecar-browsershot-layer sidecar-browsershot was updated as well. 7 Mar 2026 github.com

- Man. What a week! Started on a high on the weekend with doing good progress on a secret project and on Monday at work as well. Tuesday, still good progress but also had a quick shocker as a friend didn't answer their phone for 3 hours and we thought something happened to them. And today started with getting the notice that a friend from the local gym died after their cancer returned. 😭 And the whole world politics definitely starts to pull me down more and more. Can't wait for Saturday! 21 Jan 2026

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter, especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked article and a belief on korrents.com are left in their original language.
