Can the title of this article have the “for seniors” removed? This sounds like a good direction for TVs for everyone.

I've not exported slides for my @loopconf talk yet. But honestly, they're not that interesting.
However I created a little resources for exploring notes and links about the “25 lessons" that I presented (or was it one lesson?), and you can select lessons and get those notes here:
This is all 100% true. Jill is a gem of a person and it was amazing to workshop my talk with her.

Pretty sure I broke my little toe yesterday. Which is annoying because I have a lot of walking to do this week!!
It is quite a beautiful colour though!!
I never meant to be working for a large US corporate, but honestly, this company has some great values and amazing people, and I’m actually really proud to be representing them at LoopConf this week.
Dang, this is SUCH a good article on hiring software engineers:

And yes, keys, passwords all reset. And not sure where the compromise happened.. yet. Very odd.
Curious. Seems a Mailgun API key of mine got compromised. And despite a send limit of 1000 they’ve accepted over 3 million requests and send over 250,000 mails.
What?!!!!
I ain’t paying for those!!!
There is a policeman with a police car stood not far from our primary school gate this morning.
People are just driving up and parking on double-yellow lines right in front of him.
This is a tiny diorama view of the state of the world right now.
I think this is genuinely the best news story I read this week.
Ultralight backpackers going all in on Haribo-branded battery packs.
Amazing.

I don't talk about work much, but today I was testing our plugin’s PHP version compatibility to 8.4 and back-compat back to 7.4.
I run my local sites using LocalWP – another WP Engine-owned product.
And I really thought I was going to break it. Switching PHP versions back and forth. Restarting services galore. Simultaneous downloads of new PHP versions.
It was flawless and made my job SO easy. Amazing.
So a plug for one of the awesome tools we make:
For some reason there is a September School Disco this year.
“Golden” from K-Pop Demon hunters was playing on drop-off.
200 tweens trying to hit that high A5 notes.
I hope the teachers have good ear defenders. 😂
This JavaScript Markdown editor is right up my street. Small, simple, zero dependencies (as far as I can tell).
Great work!
Not gonna lie. All creative activity is kinda on hold until @loopconf is done.
Will my talk be perfect? Nope.
Has it taken on a life of its own? Hell yeah it has! I think it is writing me at this point!!
Will there be way more than a half hour talk’s worth of stuff? Oh yes!!
Should you attend? If you’re a UK WordPress dev then there’s not been a WordCamp for a while. The speaker line up is great and I know a bunch of awesome folks attending.
Discount code ROSS50 gets you £50 off a ticket.
Oh heck… 😂
I won’t link it but I read a post on X today (*) that was basically “WordPress has discovered package management and static content sources”
But, of course, it’s done it in its very own, proprietary way rather than using existing, mature tech, and arrived there through a very circuitous route.
Again!!
(*) – Yes, I still have an X account. No I don’t actively use it except for reading specific posts occasionally. And yes this post was only on X (as far as I know).
And it all feels so rational. Things WERE better.
Is this how my parents feel/felt?
Or did I grow up in some golden age?
Oh gosh. So many things about me are grumpy-old-man-longs-for-things-to-be-like-the-olden-days right now!
I keep discovering people who are going to @loopconf and it’s getting VERY exciting! So many people I finally get to meet in person. 😃
