Why is the #wcus live stream playing the wedding march? haha

The first two things that come to mind are extendability and the developer community. As a dev, I experienced a period where I grew bored with WordPress for several years as it felt like the platform had stopped innovating. Full-site editing and Gutenberg have rekindled my love for the platform.

Does anyone else feel uncomfortable when someone sets the volume to an odd number?

How does a WordPress plugin become a canonical plugin? Asking for a friend.

100%!

I also usually add the docs as context.

GitHub - a8cteam51/safety-net: Scrub options, deactivate denylisted plugins, and delete user data on development sites. Scrub options, deactivate denylisted plugins, and delete user data on development sites. - a8cteam51/safety-net

Our team is in the process of a large #WooCommerce migration with tons of subscriptions and wholesale accounts. I am so glad I found the Safety Net plugin by Automattic's Special Projects team.

Shoutout to @gutenbergtimes.com for surfacing this tool!

We’re getting quite the collection of go to block plugins from awesome community devs, but years of trying to keep plugins to a minimum is kicking my OCD into overdrive. Is this the new normal for block themes?

How are other #WordPress developers handling the plugin overload?

How is it every time I got to create a Gutenberg issue, @fabian-kaegy.com has already added it?

Agreed. Wait. Is this a trap?

I’ve been getting fairly consistent results after spending several hours β€œteaching” cursor.

My current workflow involves creating multiple reference files and external links to docs, posts, repos and other plugins in the cursorrules file. The I don’t have to provide them as additional context.

What problem are you tackling today?

For me it's organizing and decluttering. I already feel more in control of my environment.

I actually laughed out loud on this one.

This one’s been on my list for a bit. Sounds like it’s time to move it up.

I’ve needed this. Back in the 20s on Thursday.

If you need me, I’ll be working on a sunburn from my back yard the rest of the today.

I’m not sure really. We currently run all our linting locally and use DeployHQ for build and deployments.

It bums me out when we build some really cool shit and can’t show anyone because of NDAs.

Just know the crazy idea worked and today is one of those days when I love developing.

I spent some time reviewing GitHub actions for #WordPress development. Any agency devs using actions or other CI/CD pipelines? If so, what are your go to scripts?

Tempur-Pedic Breeze FTW. This is our third mattress in five years. My back pain was gone within weeks and the mattress actually feels cool when you go to bed.

We had a sleep number before this one and it was horrible.

Every few stand-ups, we throw in a personal question. I thought I'd toss this one out to the wild:

For your phone, case or no case? If case, which case do you use?

This is a super helpful block style! I copied @briancoords.com's idea and created a json version of it.

I consider myself tech-savvy. Today, it took me 1 hour and 48 minutes to connect a brand-new printer to WiFi.

I LIKE using Canvases in #Slack, but I would LOVE Canvases if I could organize them in a drag-and-drop sidebar nav to make a collection of canvases like a notebook.
