Why and how you should monitor scheduled tasks original
Oh Dear is the monitoring SaaS that my buddy Mattias and I are running. As you might suspect, our service can monitor the uptime of sites and SSL certificates' health. What sets Oh Dear apart from the competition is that it can also monitor performance and detect broken links and mixed content on any of the pages of your site.
Today, we added a new type of monitoring: scheduled tasks monitoring. Oh Dear can now notify you whenever one of your scheduled tasks has not run or is running too late.
You can get started monitoring your schedule today. We have a free ten-day trial. And when using this coupon code, you'll get 30% off on the first three months when subscribing: MONITOR-ALL-THE-THINGS.
In this blog post, I'd like to introduce how you can use scheduled task monitoring in Oh Dear, and how it works under the hood. There were a lot of interesting challenges we had to solve. I hope you're ready to dig it.

How to call an overridden trait function original
Traits are a wonderful thing in PHP. You can use them to reduce code duplication by putting common functions in a trait and apply them to all classes where those functions are needed. I also sometimes use traits to break up a large function in multiple single-use traits.
In this post, I'd like to show you how you can override a trait function and call it from the overriding function.

Introducing Laravel Beyond CRUD: a way of building large Laravel applications original
It's funny how from the outside, IT is often seen as an exact science. When starting as a developer, I often heard people say: "Oh, you're in IT, so you must be good at mathematics". I never understood why someone who is supposedly good at mathematics is the right person to fix a printer.
When you have some experience building applications, you know that IT is not an exact science. There are multiple valid solutions to a problem. Take five developers and ask them what the best way to set up a blog is. You'll likely get five different answers. Each suggestion will have its own set of tradeoffs.
