On a related note, I see the "I am not affiliate with WP Engine" checkbox has been removed from the WordPress.org login pages now. That must've stung...

The software mentioned in the article, Wiki.js, is a Git-based system. I've been using it for years and have all my pages in a Git repository.

I've had this happen to me before. I needed to cancel my credit card number and get a new one due to a fraud charge. I noticed that a bunch of valid subscriptions kept working despite me not updating the credit card number with them.

Perhaps these are just Azure Front Door IP addresses? I don't have another site I can check, but it's possible that these IP addresses are used by lots of websites as part of the Azure infrastructure stack.

I signed up to Fosstodon and then followed a bunch of Python and Django folks. This has been great so far, and my feed is full of relevant, interesting posts. I see a lot of posts complaining about Mastodon and pointing to its decline, but

I don't pay any attention to leaderboards. I pay for both Claude and ChatGPT and use them both daily for anything from Python coding to the most random questions I can think of. In my experience Claude is better (much better) that Chat

I agree - I've got a couple of N100 micro PCs that have replaced Raspberry Pi devices at home. One of them is running Home Assistant and a bunch of addons, and the other is my Plex server. Both of them have more than enough power and s

I wish that companies who use these tools would be more honest about them - i.e. I'd be much happier if the emails acknowledged that they are automated, and not a personal email from the CEO...

Replying to myself to note that Matt deleted the blog post. Not sure if that's because he's gaining some self-awareness or if he's finally taking some outside advice?

I feel sad saying this, but at this point I hope Matt falls hard over this whole episode. He's wilfully oblivious to how wrong he is - I find it hard to believe he can come back from this.

I still remember creating my first html page back in the 90s. It felt really magical creating it with just Notepad - changing the bgcolor of a page to red or blue or whatever, was amazing.

I'm sure the next MacBook Pro won't have a notch. This was a stupid design decision and was only done to align with the "distinctive" notch of the iPhone. Now that this is gone, I'm sure the next the MacBook Pro wil

Hi Matt - long time WordPress user here, and I've been hosting and running a WordPress multisite for over 15 years now. In fact, I met you at a WordCamp here in NZ 15 or 16 years ago. Anyway, this whole episode has been the final nail

The way that Tim was treated was disgraceful. Definitely made me less likely to participate in the Python forums. Edit - I should clarify that my main concern was the way that all of his alleged offences were collectively summarised into on

Anyone else thinking that the male voice sounds suspiciously similar to Dax Shepard? I generated one of these podcasts last week and that was the first thing I noticed. I haven't seen any reporting on it.

I'm really curious about how well they run Linux. e.g. will the NPU work under Linux in the same way it does on Windows? Or does it require specific drivers? Same with the batter life - if there a Windows-specific driver that helps wit

WordPress.org is not a competitor to WP Engine. Despite Matt claiming that WP Engine is a "cancer", WP Engine have supported WordPress for a long time, both through financial contributions and code contributions - even sponsoring

I've been casually keeping track of this - I wasn't sure that it would last. But perhaps it's time for me to take another look at this.

He's lost his mind! Customising the admin dashboard has been something WordPress multisite hosts have been doing for 15+ years! There are tons of plugins on WordPress.org that provide this specific feature. And if you don't want a

This definitely has vibes of old-school table-based layout. Was not disappointed. :-)

This really is a bad look for Automattic, they're only doing this out of spite. They had no problem having WP Engine as a sponsor of WordCampUS ( https://us.wordcamp.org/2024/sponsor/wp-engine/ ). It'

The WordPress revision system is a real pain to deal with. I've been hosting and running a multi-site WordPress site for about 15 years, and the biggest drain on server resources was the revision system. Thankfully, there's a sett

But it's worse than that. Anyone can create a free "Microsoft account", but you need more than that to sign in to this app. You need a "Work or school account", which is similar to a Microsoft account, but not the

I haven't tried this on Windows yet because it appears to require a Work or School app. I'm really confused as to why you can't connect to a remote PC from Windows with this app? Is this an intentional strategy, or is it &quo

Agree - I get very sceptical when someone presents "just the facts". Facts can easily be presented in a way that distorts reality and paints a false narrative. Similar to the age-old issue of correlation vs causation, facts can be
