I just launched a new product 🚀 It started with "how hard can it be?" (It was harder than expected) For the last 16 years (damn...), I’ve primarily built iOS, iPadOS, and macOS applications. Some did (and still do) very well, but most never really took off. So to spice things up, I thought it would be interesting to try something on the web. No more waiting for App Review. Fixing bugs directly in production... sounds like the life, right?! So here it is: POSTBRO, A MINIMAL SOCIAL MEDIA CONTENT SCHEDULER THAT DOESN'T SUCK. Bro ... why this idea, you might ask? When I was releasing iOS apps, I always wanted social media channels for each of them, across all platforms. But managing all of them became tedious, so I started looking for tools (and there are quite a few). One thing became clear quickly: these platforms are expensive. So like I said ... "how hard can it be to built this myself" 🙃 (famous last words) Ok cool story bro ... but what does it do? It lets you post content to all your brand channels (X, Threads, Instagram, TikTok, Mastodon, Bluesky, Facebook Pages, LinkedIn, Pinterest) with a single click, and for a fraction of the price the big players charge. Want to use slightly different text per platform? No problem, you can override content for each platform individually. Already using LLMs in your workflow? Postbro has an API your LLM can use to schedule posts (with images, videos, ...) without you even touching the UI. It also has a calendar view where you can see all your posts and quickly drag them to a new timeslot. Support for threads, post analytics, and so much more ... Want to see it in action? Go to postbro.co Create a free account, and try it out. I would love to hear what you think! There’s currently a launch offer: use LAUNCH20 at check-out on yearly plans to get 20% off.

Hey @Bart_DeWever, neem aub in uw begroting op dat managementvennootschappen geen zwembaden meer mogen aftrekken van hun belastingen. Veel zal dat niet opleveren maar dan zijn we van het achterlijke geleuter van deze minus habens af. Dank u. 🙏
Waar ligt voor een democratische beleidspartij de grens eigenlijk nog tussen feitelijke retoriek en het valselijk framen én beschadigen van hele beroepsgroepen (boekhouders, advocaten), en het systematisch blijven verspreiden van bedrieglijke veralgemeningen en flagrante leugens?

So how exactly do these new Assets work in App Store Connect?? You need to add your screenshots for review independently, from the binary that also needs to go through review? If i try to do both in 1 submission I get errors 😅🙃

What I dont understand about this PHP2Shell thing ... like why do we need to wait until 14:00UTC for the patch? Like ... just give it to us already? Especially as there are rumors that exploits are already being used?

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.
