Kings of open source or fools on the golf course?

Tailwind, buddy. This one's for you, Jennifer. Unless it's really bad. We are winning our core on the golf. Not my best shot. Not my best shot. I have trivia questions. Hopefully I actually know the real answers. Let's take a picture. Prove that I know you. Laraveville got 150 engineers together to play golf with a twist. Nine holes, scramble style teams, but each hole has a unique challenge. Hole one is just normal golf though. Let's see how they start out. Threewood, four wood. We're so [ __ ] All right, Eric, start us off. We just want to copy you. We're ready to play. Got Duno, got Caleb. We're the A team. Oh, yeah. Wow. Wow. That looks pretty. What? Where'd it go? Right into the hole. Here we go. Eric is making this game pointless. I don't even want to [ __ ] touch this club. That's not bad. If I get that shot, I'll be happy. Yeah. So, we're supposed to bring the ball up there ourselves? Yes. Okay. Hey, what have you done? This is why we're behind computers. Hold to the left. Oh, so close there. How do you even hold it? Do you put one hand in front of the other or That's pretty good, actually. There you go. Yeah, dude. I'm so [ __ ] tuned. But we if he's on our team, what the he How do you even see where the ball went? Like, do you have like special glasses? Mr. Aaron and I don't golf. All right. Who's up? Hey. I'll be happy with that. Got over Nuno. I'll be happy with that. He lifted T on deck for you. Do you have a follow? Dude, this is going to be bad. Really bad. God, I don't know what I'm doing at all. He has the club in his hands. That's progress. Oh, yeah. That's good. Get some drink. That was fun. It' be awesome if someone got bit by a rattled snake like just in a story though. But also a lot of Logan did. Put us right on the green. Drop it right in there. Wa. That's pretty good. Sounds really good. Nice. Where do you think we were? Right here. You know, I don't want to be a Trump and better. You know, this one's for you, Jennifer. Unless it's really bad. It's a short club for a tall music. All right. Who's next? Good warm-ups. Good warm up, dude. How do you make sure you hit the ball? Like how do you do that? Hey, there you go. What? No. Look at that. Sorry. Hey, we'll count it. Nice. Okay. Solid stuff. All right. Jesus Christ. What? It's crazy. What is this? We Evan, what do you mean? We got this. That probably will be our best shot. All right. So, half power, Chris. I would say full power for the rest of us. Full power for the rest of us. Double power. Full power, you said. All right. We'll do full power. So, everyone say a prayer for the grass. Everywhere I go little right of human right of the cameraman. Are you being truthful? You're going to hate me. You'll never make this putt. You jackass. You can see I'm in my zone. Don't speak to me. Don't even call my phone. It's about that time when the lights go up. You know that's my sign. Let's go. Good. In the hole. Get in the hole. So, would that get it slightly to the right? We take it to the left, I think. Right. I was hoping for a bank off of your ball. Oh, yeah. Oh, man. That was pretty good. Hole two. The teams need to take a cup of water to the green. Most water in the cup wins, but the first team there gets some extra water as a bonus. You can go. Wait, do we just run? Wait, how do you use one cup? Each team one cup, right? Who's our Who's our most stable person? Oh, just go. Oh, god. I need blockers. Go, go, go, go. Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey. We got water in here. Oh, we I will run you over. Running. Go, go, go. You will die. You will die. You will die. You will die. You will die. Ours is full. See who's highest first. You got ice in there. They're higher. They're higher. They're higher. But you get the extra water. I mean, so you get the bonus. A comically small amount of bonus. Oh, here we go. This is close. Very quick. That was a lot of bonus water to be honest. All right, I got to hold these. Let's get in. What line are we at? Taylor wins. All right, good job, boys. We lost. It was rigged. Not fair. Not fair. Not fair, Hank. Not fair. Earn the extra water. It made the difference. So, did you know that we actually uh so our cup off through the way we lost it and basically Eric just stepped with the the water that was You're that kind of golfer. I was like, "Whatever it takes to win. Whatever it takes to win." I knew someone was fishing cuz I was like, "Where the hell did they get?" I don't have a GoPro. You know, we got hit on that last one pretty good. Yeah, they they cheated a bit. Adam Won plays dirty. He's a a dirty rod. No good pig stealing software developer. We're all switching to bootstrap. We're switching back to back to bootstrap. I just I love playing golf. Let's hear a glimp of the game, baby. Poll three. Each team member putts blindfolded. First, they'll answer trivia questions about their teammates. Answer wrong, take a step back. Answer right, step forward. Three correct answers and they can remove their blindfold. I'll go and I'll take Evan. You'll go and you'll take Evan. When was he born? I I think there's a good chance he did this, but I don't know. Like he's about to commit a driveby. Question number one. What are Evan's three most well-known projects? Hint, they all start with V. V, V, Void Zero. Correct. Take a step forward. Void Zero counts as a project. Yeah. I don't know. There you go. Evan first conceived U.JS while working at what company? Google. Pretty easy. He's a fanboy. All right. You are a fanboy. We might have gone too easy on Evan here. Um, what was Evan's college major? Oh [ __ ] philosopher. Final answer. Sure. No. Step backwards. No. You need to put art history here. Give me your ball. Put a question. Uh, go ahead and make a putting like line up. Okay. The ball the ball is right here. All right. Yes. There you go. Settle. Settle. Settle. Wow. Settle. That was good. That was good. I like the interlocking fingers. Sentiment. Got to be blindfolded even to answer the questions. Eh, let's go through. Adam, name five Laravel products or packages Taylor created other than the core framework. Um, Vapor, Forge, uh, Cashier, uh, Spark, Nova, Nova. Take a step forward. That's easy. All right. Before PHP, what was Taylor mainly coding with at work? Net. Very good. Big step. Yep. What's the first paid product Taylor launched for Laravel? The from apprentice to artisan ebook. That is technically correct. Technically correct. We were looking for forge, but technically correct is the best kind of correct. You can take a step forward and remove your ball. I would say I would say correct and you were wrong. But yeah, is that good? A little writer. Like this way. Yeah. Perfect. That was a good hit. Three of the four Nudo has created. Hint, they all start with P. One parallel. What did he say? No. He just said the word parallel. You got two more tries. I told Dude, I'm old. I'm probably covered all the way. It's something. All right. All right. You got two. You got You've got one more guess and you got to make it obscure or um take a step backwards. What was the original pronunciation of pint? Like the way he pronounces it. It's like pants. Correct. Okay, dude. You are not okay. Okay. Which way? Just can I touch it? Yeah. Yeah, you can. You can you can aim it just a little bit like I think you weren't like that. And the ball is right here. Okay, perfect. Yeah, right there. Right. Okay. So, it's like 3 ft. Perfect. Super slow though. Okay. Super slow. Wait, put the put the putter like right behind the ball. Right behind the ball. Yeah. That way I can get a feel for it. Adam co-authored a popular design book for developers with designer Steve. We got one. What's the title of this book? Refactoring UI. Step Forward. What is the name of the programming podcast that Adam host? That's it. Step Forward. Adam's team created a commercial tailwind component kit which is called now or originally. Give me both. Kill UI. Tailwind plus. That's right. Both counted. YO. WOW. What's the name of the open-source package Caleb created to use eloquent queries without that is hard. I know that though. Oh, my was going to say should Good guess. Anybody know? Sushi. All right. Just go nice. Go very slow though. Okay. I think so. What do you think? Oh, the Francis putt. Hey, so between Chris and his wife, Cap, how many Laron talks have they given in total? Is it two? What's the answer, Chris? Three. Three. Taylor didn't give an answer. He just asked a question. He hasn't provided an answer yet. The only ones who got three. Let me turn around a little bit. Step a little bit this way. There you go. Got it. That's pretty good, Taylor. All right. Okay. I'm going to put you right on the ball. Okay, Taylor, you want to hit the ball to my voice? This is where the hole is right in my mouth. Okay. Pretty good. Pretty close. Good job, Taylor. Thank you. The podcast that Aaron co-host about building. Mostly technical. Mostly technical. Got it. Oh, yeah. We're going to get this in one. Which layer belt package did Aaron build to let Valer run AWS Lambda functions directly from? Oh, nice. He's going to take the blind vote off now. Can I do it? Get in there. Oh, we already have. Do we have a two? No, I think we only have a three. Four. Nice. It's nice. Can you imagine if you saw a mountain lion? For some reason, I don't think I would fear a mountain lion. You're the last holder of the mountain lion in a cage. How'd you know? Hole four is another team scramble, but from a high vantage point. What are you doing now? Came out of my cart. You want it here? Come get it. Oh, that was the worst one he had. Not bad. Off to the right. That was a nice hit. Jesus Christ. Beautiful. Best ball. He's the best golfer in the world. It's one high noon. Got a little high noon. I see why you train so much. All right. Aaron Francis just beat me to the pin. That's some not happy about that. Dude, look at this. Up close. It's even better. Crazy. Aaron's doing all the hard work for it. Yeah, Eric didn't look that bad from up there. Forgot that you were on our team. Put it, dude. The sound it made when you hit that ball really flack. So, we're gonna aim. You see that brown spot over to the left? Can I little hard? Oh, wow. That was actually a pretty good That was good. That looks good. Oh, that's not bad. Oh, that was a great way too. You're still close to me. Not hard enough. It looks pretty flat. Yeah. Uphill slightly right. Chris goes uphill slightly to our right. play golf. All right, I get it. I get it a little bit. I get it. Yeah. See, Aaron and Taylor defeated Eric Barnes. It was a team effort. Hole five is a modified version of cornhole. Stand behind the line, take turns. If you get in the hula hoop, that's a point. If you get it in the hole, that's three points. Each player gets four tosses. Beanag toss. Eh, I think you each toss four, but you take turns. Good toss. Good toss. Okay, it's a Eric. I'm just lining it up. I'm bothering you. If you're in a hard world, I'm just living. Just snipe it out of the air. You know when you Oh, that was so close. So, it's 2-1 right now. Two-1. All right. Don't Let's not rush it. We're rushing it. The results don't look good. is that Andy? That's three. YES. The emphatic answer by Aaron Francis. YEAH. WAIT, what are we at? They got three. What did we net on that one? Three. No, I think we netted. Yeah, we netted four. Four. We netted four. One in the hole and one just brought you down one. Yeah. One. One. So, we had five and they brought us down All right, it's over. Let's go. The batter team won. Simple as that. Careful. We are packing up. Hot beer. Hot beer. Oh no. I was not planning on being up there for you a beer yet. Oh, I've been drinking all day. Of course I want beer. This is golf. You don't play golf without beer. Game. Yeah. Beer. Nicotine. That's how you play. All right. How are we? How will we win this one? What is the score right now? They're up by a bunch. What's your up as in winning? Do you know? Yeah, y'all were kicking our butt. Um, this might be We were tied after trivia one and then I think we won two on hole six. Instead of playing the team's best ball, the player who hits an exploding ball chosen randomly from a bag is the only person who can hit for the team on that hole. You need a good player to hit. Shoot. Don't look. Don't look. Grab one at random. All right, let's get this over. I'm going to I'm going to lock in, guys. Don't worry. Lock it. Sorry, guys. I could tell as soon as I pulled it out of the bag. Feel right there. I should have just dropped it. Lighter. Yeah, it's lighter. Not Not my best ball. No. Okay, Taylor. Gentle. Real gentle. I got to go soft. Real gentle on this one. that counts. All right. So, does that count or do I have to tee up the ball? Okay. I need to I got a ball. I got that one. Okay. You got to do better than Aaron on this one, dude. Oh, hell yeah. Yeah. Not Not good. All right. This is where we get it back. Who's the best? I think the best is probably Eric Barnes. I think Aaron Francis is the best golfer in the world. What about worse? It might be Aaron Francis. That's the paradox of Francis. No, no. Yeah, just like that. Yep. So, for the real one, do it just like that. Yep. Ooh. Wow. That almost hit the flag. I mean, we're still gonna win, so it's fine overall. Hopefully. Evan, it's not bad. HOLY [ __ ] OH MY GOSH. I don't know why Taylor's still hitting the ball. We didn't call that a drop. Then we maybe go like seven. We had a three. Six is very generous. If you get a six, we have a three. Then that means we're up one and it's pretty close and everybody can come back. Yeah. So we had an uphill battle for sure cuz we had the exploding golf ball. But we made the best of it. We finished in roughly six to nine. We're not sure, but we're trying our hardest. Trying to come back. Hole seven. Players take numbered sharks out of a cooler to get their scores. The team's average will be the score for that hole. Remember, lower scores are better in golf. All right. Lady with the cooler. Lady with the cooler. I hope you have beer in the cooler. All right. Your team. How about this one? Okay. Should be a zero. There are zero. You got it. It's a zero. Come on, Taylor. Big zero. That hole is going to be intense. Okay. Is it Do we play golf on that one? If you've got a drink, I'd take a sip More intense than the running with water. I can't do two of those, man. And I literally have been tasting blood since then. Hole eight. Work together to take as many Lambos from the tea to the green as possible and be first so you get the bonus Lambos waiting for you. But and I can't stress this enough. If you drop a single Lambo along the way, your team is out. Ready, go. Let's go. Loot me up. This is a deep pouch. Yeah. Thanks, guys. Appreciate that. Go faster than this. Does Eric have all theirs? No. Aaron's got them all. Got one. They're not even a Oh, yeah. We got this. Well, yeah. If they had more in their box than us. Yeah. I think the boxes were the boxes were extremely uneven. Extremely uneven. Is that a Lambo next to their box? Eric, get get your rangefinder out. No, you see that? That's interesting. I see it. You don't see that? Hey, wait a second. Do you see that? How do we count that? Is that a Lambo next to the box? Lambo. There's a Lambo next to the box. Interesting. That's crazy. He took the Lambo out. I'm not as he started running. She started running. Yes, sir. I'm actually quite sure that Caleb drops that out of the box. But it's out of your box. And I'm pretty sure I saw I'm pretty sure Adam shenanigans going on, guys. It's not the box. It's all against us. How much How far were you guys ahead? Oh, no. We were all Everybody's tied. I think we're tied now. It was all tied coming into this. One more hole. We should all be tied going into the last hole. I'll call this a tie. I think I'm down with that. Going to the last hole on the side for everything. Hole nine's a little far for some engineers to drive the ball. So, we got the mechan. We come into the last hole. Even Steven said for all the marbles. Is this your homemade potato cannon thing? It is not. This does remind me of potato cannon. This is This is like So, yeah, guys. Basically, this a long par five. It'll dog leg down to the right over there. I'm getting a little bit of wind right to left. So, I'm having people aim basically at the cart path down there. Um, I'll coach you guys up as far as angle goes. I'm looking for about a 25° angle. Everybody's inclined to do this big mortar ball. I don't need the mortar. I don't need a line drive. I need somewhere right in the middle. It's only the kick of a 22. So, I've had some people want to straight up bazooka it. I've had one or two folks literally do the in between the legs. Have a little fun doing it, man. We'll drop this in. We'll hear it hit. That is loaded. Ready to rock and roll for you, sir. However you're comfortable holding it, man. It's And I'm just grabbing this like this. That little trigger right up there, man. No real kick to it. That angle looks pretty darn good. I need to like brace it. No, it's only a 22. So, however you comfortable, man. All right. Are you ready? That thing is forever gone. That's a good one. Hole in one for sure. That's obviously Oh, no. Not quite. Right to the edge. The water's short. So, that Do I not understand the rules? Like, aren't we We're going that way, right? Holes on the left, guys. Natural Good contact. I got one. We don't even know if this is the right club to use. You always grab one. Hank's just here to hang. This is their fourth. They need to make this. All right. So, don't do that. So, basically, if y'all make it and we make that, we tie. That's right. If we miss this, we make that, we win. way. Turn. That's a good shot. Let me go. You like you you have some innate golf ability. Too far, right? Too hard. Too hard. We win. We were the first ones to put We were the first ones to put it in. All right. We were the first miss. No, we win. We were the first ones to put it in the hole. We need them all to miss this. Well, WE All right. Good game. Good game. I might be from I don't think it was rigged. We put a It was It was a close game. We both made a good effort, but they came out on top. We'll try to get them next year. We'll see what happens. Tell us nothing. Thank you. You know, they they held us through till the end. We want to thank Mick Globe Ultra and um y'all can email me Eric at Litterville News and be my sponsor. I loved the afternoon, man. I'm not a golfer, but it was super fun. Thanks Hank and Interl team for organizing this. Yeah, super fun. So, that was a super fun tournament. We played maybe five shots each in real golf, but everything else was just designed to go out, have fun, and enjoy, you know, time with your buddies. So, it was amazing. had had a blast and uh it was so much fun when you get a bunch of nerds together and uh only two of them kind of golf. Okay, only one golfs. I don't really golf. You don't know what you're going into, but I think everything was planned great. I think all of the holes did amazing. Honestly, I wish I could get more nerds onto a golf course more cuz that was really, really fun.
