Buy me a coffee.
Everything on this site is free. No login wall, no paywall, no newsletter that ambushes you on the way out. If something here saved you an afternoon — a script, a lab, a post that finally made a bug make sense — you can put a coffee toward the next one.
There's no tier list. No Discord role. Nothing gets unlocked. The money becomes coffee, and the coffee becomes more of this.
One coffee
The intended dose. One large dark roast, consumed at 11pm, directly responsible for whatever gets committed at 2am.

Generous. Statistically this doubles my output and halves my judgment. Historically, both of those have produced good projects.

That's not a beverage anymore, that's a medical event. I'm going to accept it, and then I'm going to email you to make sure everything is alright at home.
Send it, I guessYou pick
Type whatever number you want on the next screen. The floor is $1, which buys roughly one third of a coffee — the exact amount I would drink and then complain about.
Name your ownThe boring part
Stripe handles the whole payment. You'll land on a Stripe-hosted checkout page and I never see your card number — I just get an email saying someone was nice.
One-time only. Nothing recurring, no subscription, no "we've updated our terms" email six months from now. You click once and we're square.
This is a gift, not a purchase. phbeks.com is a personal site, not a business — there's nothing to deliver and nothing to refund. If you'd rather keep your money: genuinely, no hard feelings. The site works exactly the same either way, which is the entire point of it being free.
