I’m not really ready to process that it’s the 20th anniversary of #U2’s How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb release.
I should clarify that the #WordPress situation is bad in the big picture sense of the word.. but not like “nazi” big picture. More like “bad business dbag” picture. So don’t panic if you’ve got WordPress sites. Even if you’re on WP Engine hosting, you’ll be ok.
One perk of having a puppy is that you get to use the phrase “don’t bite the hand that feeds you” a lot more.
Good lord what a way to poop on a huge part of the #WordPress ecoysystem. Matt Mullenweg’s truly gone off the deep end with this. No more WordPress for me after 15? years.
New on my blog: The Contractor’s Dilemma: Coping When Clients Disappear I’m sure others have gone through similar experiences when working with clients. I try to keep a thick skin about it, but I’m still a bag of fleshy feelings. 😆
Anyone want to help me test out the (beta) Descript recording studio? Join me now (for the next ~15m?) and chat web.descript.com/room/c8c9… (you’ll be able to turn off video, etc. before joining)
Great recap of everything announced at TwitchCon 2024 if, like me, you’re curious about streaming but rarely have the guts to actually do it. 😆
I edited this episode for ShopTalk talking all about the fun and challenges of developing with #WordPress just last week and I, and I think developers, felt motivated to dig into WordPress again. And then Mullenweg flips the table and poops all over the floor. So bizarre.
Can’t anybody at #WordPress / #Automattic take away Matt Mullenweg’s internet for a week before he causes more damage to himself and the community?
Putting a link to his petty whinging in the WordPress Events + News tab of every WordPress install is bonkers.
Finally our long nightmare of using QuickTake to record iPhone audio while recording video is over.
I spend far too much time checking out team communication apps for a person with a sole proprietorship business.

Weekends are for napping on the deck after a hard day of trying to eat wood chips, barking at hammers, and biting anything and everything.
Shoutout to everyone on 256GB Mac hardware, Apple Watch Series 3, or an iPhone 12 or earlier attempting to update their software this weekend. 💪 You got this!
