If Word could remember whether I use dark or light mode instead of resetting it after auto-updates, that would be great.

I don't understand how companies with so many resources can't seem to fix some of their bugs for months or even years. Maybe if they stopped putting all their money into grabbing screenshots without permission, they'd have enough to support their core products.

If you build an API in PHP, try using zircote/swagger-php or equivalent. You will thank me later.

I used it last year when rescuing a project that derailed, in big part because of a lack of a verifiable contract between the UI and API teams.

I also like to automatically validate the schema on all requests and responses in automated acceptance tests. Then I don't have to write tests specifically for the input/output shape.
