  • Breaking news: still dead.

  • I think this is the least subtle code I have ever written.

    namespace Run\This\In\Local\Development\Only\It\Is\Unsafe;

  • Has the media covered the Queen’s death last week? I haven’t seen a single story.

  • The Import from Movable Type Podcast will be the last podcast named for an admin feature in WordPress.

  • The border-inline-start-width-podcast will be the last podcast named for a css property.

  • Scheduling a blog post targeting one time zone, while the severs in another and your in a third is fun. Even after publication I am only pretty sure I got it right but not certain.

  • According to GitHub, last week’s maintenance and security releases brought the total number of minor and major WordPress releases to exactly 600. That seems like a lot. https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-develop/

  • Last week a huge performance gain was committed to post queries in WordPress.

    It’s a complex change so help testing from hosts and developers before the next release would be great. If you find a bug, drop a note on the ticket. https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/22176

  • While rebuilding my laptop I discovered fnm as an node version manager. The F stands for for fast, and they are not kidding it’s so much quicker than anything I’ve used in the past. https://github.com/Schniz/fnm

  • Day 5: I am so bored I have taken a RAT for something to do.
