Congrats John. I vaguely remember your frustration with WordPress back in the day and venturing out to start Ghost. So cool to see how far you've come!

Today @ghost.org crossed $10M ARR, as a bootstrapped non-profit foundation building open source software.
Indie publisher revenue earned with Ghost now ~$130M, and accelerating.
Quick blog post about using phpactor for WordPress development.

Het uitsluitend belasten van papieren winsten zonder mogelijkheid tot volledige verliesrekening (zowel voorwaarts als achterwaarts) is dat niet.
Dat de Belastingdienst tot (ten minste!) 2030 geen verandering aan kan mag m.i. niet meespelen in de besluitvorming.
Als een kleine belegger (en zelfstandige met weinig job security) ben ik blij met dit nieuws. Ik ben helemaal voor het belasten van vermogens, maar het moet wel eerlijk.
Belasten van daadwerkelijk gerealiseerd rendement is dat.

Spent the last few days bumping up phpstan levels across my various Symfony applications and WordPress plugins.
Absolutely phenomenal piece of PHP tooling built by Ondrej Mirtes!

Why do I have to pretend that I'm going to print something in order to save it as a PDF. Why do I have to engage in a little ruse.
Hetzner is increasing the prices for their VPS offerings by about 36%. Still a very good value compared to other EU options though, especially considering how reliable they've been.

Also, I think this page misspelled "Chipotle", no? casagees.co.uk/product/chip...
I totally missed that you now have a pizza business Elliott. So cool! As a hobby pizza chef, I have so many questions.
Like, what type of oven do you cook in? Do you still make the dough yourself? How do you get the pizza to stay nice after being in a cardboard box?
I don't think LLMs make work easier. They make work faster, and that is "better" for companies and give workers an approximation of ease bc of the apparent lack of labour. You're still accountable for the output, which makes you a details reviewer, which I often find harder w/o the original labour.
That was fun! Messed one up badly. 😪

Derp. I have been forced to commit configuration for other people's AI agents. Slippery slope, I assume? 🫠

De VVD komt een dag later direct met damage control op hun website, maar leggen nergens uit waarom dit "tussenstation" dan nodig is...

@pietergrinwis.bsky.social Jij weet dit. Ik weet dat jullie tegen hebben gestemd, maar weet jij waarom geen partij hier echt blij mee lijkt te zijn maar toch voor stemmen?
Ik snap helemaal dat dat forfataire rendement in box-3 nergens op slaat, maar waarom kunnen we niet direct naar het belasten van daadwerkelijk gerealiseerd rendement gaan?
Niets is zo permanent als 'n tijdelijke oplossing...

This one totally slipped through the cracks as string-based path values were introduced after we built the data exporter.
The issue is fully addressed going forward and some defensive coding mechanisms were added to ensure exported files from earlier versions (< 2.1.3) can be used safely.
We've just published a CVE for it so security scanner tools will start making noise from now on if you haven't upgraded already.
A big thanks to Hector Ruiz from naxus-audit for responsibly disclosing. 🙏
Last week Koko Analytics version 2.1.3 was released, which fixes a potential SQL injection vulnerability when importing a previously exported dataset containing malicious path values.

#WordPress company trust question. I'm curious to know which companies you trust without question in the WordPress space. A company you simply know / assume will do the right thing by you, their customer. Perhaps explain why you think this / how they earned that trust? Thank you.
Just discovered that Stripe now charges an additional EUR 20 "counter dispute fee" whenever you respond to a raised dispute with evidence.
That's on top of the regular EUR 20 dispute fee, so it costs you a whopping EUR 40 for every lost dispute.
Crazy.
Impressed with @bunny.net for DNS management and CDN. Very smooth experience and great performance.
I'm allowing myself an upgrade at most every 5 years, but the value proposition is really not all that enticing right now.
This thing slaps.
My laptop turns 5 years old today. 🎉
It's a Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 and I paid €749 for it. I've been using it daily and it absolutely flies running Linux (Debian) with Sway and a fast code editor like Sublime Text 4.
Mostly looking for ppl with well established revenue streams who just want to hang online.
Microfounder (the event) used to be great, but not sure where that crowd hangs nowadays.
Was not a big fan of Indiehacker (the site). Too many people catering to each other vs. actually useful boring stuff.
