YouTube reaction videos but itโ€™s developers reading their own three year old code.


I'm thrilled to be speaking at Web Directions Enqueue, co presented by The Code Company. The line up is amazing and includes some of the best engineering minds in WordPress today. (BTW, there's a discount code in the Repository article!)


Josepha's leadership is one of the reasons I am an active contributor to WordPress. I am exceptionally pleased to have had the opportunity to work with her over the years. Good luck with whatever comes next, Josepha.

It's been a beautiful and transformative nine years, WordPress. I'm never at a loss for words, but let the main thing you hear be "Thank you"! josepha.blog/2024/10/04/thaโ€ฆ



My first substantial pull requests to WordPress Playground were recently merged. It's now possible to run the latest commit to WordPress a few minutes after it was committed, so contributors no longer need to wait for the nightly. tinyurl.com/wp-trunk


It appears some people like pre-commit hooks and some people don't. It's a real shame that all development processes need to be identical and it's impossible to decide what to do based on your individual project's needs.


Currently compiling some stats for a blog post. One stat of interest is that by the time I hit publish it will be 1,234 days since my previous blog post. Oops.

I take back every bad thing I've ever said about PHP's handling of timezones. > PHP's date() function has a format specifier, 'B', which returns the Swatch Internet Time notation for a given time stamp.

I've *finally* seen the "418 I'm a teapot" HTTP status code being used on a production site. In this case, it's the Australian Government's MyGov online services portal. When waiting in the queue to access online tax services, an AJAX request responds with a 418 status code ๐Ÿ˜Ž

I am slightly tempted to create a browser extension called FOMO that replaces all occurrences of "WCEU" with "WCEU (don't worry, I'm sure it won't be very good)".


I seriously doubt I'd have had any of the jobs I've had since 2015 if I didn't go to WordCamp Sydney 2012.


I can't stress enough how valuable attending WordCamps, meetups and other events has been to my career. If you can't afford to get to WordCamp Sydney this November, @TheCodeDotCo may be able to help you.

Just got an email from #Ticketek saying they were hacked and some customers' details may have leaked. Then they charged me a $12.50 Details Leaked In A Hack fee

Exciting news for multisite users in WordPress 6.6! We're introducing a powerful new function: wp_prime_network_option_caches. This function allows you to prime caches for multiple network options with a single call.


I looks like a scam is going around re Google's TOS update later this month. It was sent to my public email alias and doesn't include my name. Otherwise it looks quite convincing. Or Google have really messed up, but I'm treating it as a scam.

Everyone needs to chill a little. The princess is still getting some bed rest and catching up on her reading after surgery as these pictures from the palace prove. #nofilter

Is anyone else having massive WordCamp Asia FOMO after noticing that their passport went under six months just days before they needed to enter the country but only discovering this after it was too late to renew their passport? Asking for a friend.
