He also explains Hone, the Nightwatch alternative that sends your telemetry to your own endpoint and gives the findings to an agent instead of a dashboard. Peter explains Sputnik Intelligence, why he put a Rust search engine on Laravel Cloud, and why he thinks data may still be a good business even if code isn't.\nAlong the way: scale-to-zero, the database session driver that quietly keeps your database awake, getting 37signals' Campfire running on Laravel Cloud's new Ruby runtime, Figma limiting which agent harnesses can use its MCP, whether AI is any use outside work, and talking to your agents out loud.\nLinks\nArtisan Beer: https://artisan.beer\nScalpels: https://scalpels.app\nSputnik Intelligence: https://sputnikintelligence.com\nEd / Artisan Build: https://artisan.build\nPeter: https://petervandijck.com\nLaravel Cloud: https://cloud.laravel.com\nFast Laravel (JMac Cloudflare Caching Course): https://fastlaravel.com/\nMuesli Dictation: https://muesli.works/\nIf you enjoyed it, like and subscribe.
