šŸ¤“ When I come out the other side of this very intense phase of life they call middle-age, Iā€™m going to be more of a nerd than Iā€™ve ever been!!!!!

That was weird. Back from a trip to my in-laws. About 130 miles.

On the way there our EV did about 4.2 miles/kWh. We started at 100% and ended with 9%.

On the way back we got 4.8 miles/kWh. Started at 100% and ended with 22%.

No A/C or heating on either way. Similar conditions.

Iā€™ve never known a discrepancy like this. Did we just have a strong headwind?

Did someone say or boost something here about links to HTML IDs not being reliable? Iā€™m sure I saw something but canā€™t find it.

I know this was all very well considered. But I find it baffling that WordPress always comes to the conclusion that the best thing to do would be to reinvent the wheelā€¦ and the tyreā€¦ and the axle, creating maintenance burden on its own developers; making people that already understand wheels learn the new wheel; and hampering developers that learn the new wheel because their wheel is different to everyone elseā€™s. And for what benefit? I donā€™t get it.

I've kinda run out of interesting things to do with Turbo Admin, so instead of doing useful real world stuff, I'm building fun easter eggs! šŸ˜‚

YES! I DID IT!!!

plugin actions from Turbo Admin.

I wanted this for SO long. It was harder than you'd think.

Will be in a release soon.

And yes, plugins do weird stuff that might mean this is messy. I don't care. I do the basics. I can't handle every situation. It's flippin dark magic as it is!!

šŸ˜€ I donā€™t mean to be trite or dismissive of all the bad stuff in the world, but we need to laugh more and be excited about small things.

I love Dave and Chris on Shop Talk Show podcast. They just sound like theyā€™re having a good time chatting.

I love The Vergecast. Theyā€™re enjoying hanging out.

So much ā€œcontentā€ is stale and boring and safe.

I want to hear more people enjoying themselves.

JavaScript question/helpā€¦

Context: Iā€™m building a bunch of DOM elements from an array of configuration objects.

The objects might have callbacks that need to be called on events on the created DOM elements.

Question: Is it OK to just add the callbacks as ā€œcustom propertiesā€ on the DOM elements when creating them? Is that bad for some reason? Is there a better way?

Thanks in advance.

P.S. This is vanilla JS. No framework!!

Turbo Admin for update today. v1.16.0 fixes a bug discovered by Phil Kurth (philkurth.com.au/) – thank you – and introduces a new menu-hiding feature.

This is great if you have a cluttered left-hand admin menu. You can alt/option-click items to move them to a new expandable section and then just access those items using the command palette! Yay! This is early/experimental – let me know what you think.
