Does @ivory not do content warnings yet?

This seems pretty ironic, if you know what OWASP ZAP is.

I have the weirdest cold today. For some reason it’s streaming out of my eyes!! Never had that before.
No it’s not Covid. I tested.
My wife is being a legend letting me rest and doing ALL the things.

I was reminded by @jonathanbossenger that we once did a team “Pub Quiz” and it had a “Tech or Pokemon” round.
So… for your Sunday entertainment… are these tech? Or Pokemon?

My wife has bought an electric piano! Yay!
Her: I can make music. And the kids can learn too!
Me: This thing has wireless midi over Bluetooth? Cooool. What can I connect it to? What can it do?!

Is there, like, a browser-based, Markdown notes app like Bear or Obsidian that uses the filesystem API to save local files?

Nice to see omg.lol getting some good attention on hacker news! 😃

Gosh I agree with @chriscoyier
I’ve stopped so many people thinking that they want to build an app.
But then I see people who play Wordle in an app. The App Stores are where everyday people go to download things for their phones!!
I love the idea of a PWA as much as the next web dev, but how do we get people to even know that that’s a thing they can do?

I got some bread lames (super sharp scoring blades!) for Christmas. Simple designs for now (was in a hurry) but already making my bread pretty!

I remain of the opinion that personal vehicle ownership at scale is a really, really bad idea. 😕

Running the maths on EV’s again.
Leasing is expensive. But if we don’t lease we would probably buy something either old or with high mileage. Which I’m not sure we would want to do.
But overall my feeling is: Do I want to pay more than my monthly mortgage cost just for the convenience of owning a car that I do maybe 3000 miles a year in?
*sigh*

The update also fixes an issue that was causing Turbo Admin's front-end mode to fail in some cases.
The browser extension can now search make.wordpress.org sites for articles (I think this is better than either of the existing search options on the site!)

Right. Turbo Admin users: Sorry about the verbose log-dumping. Version 1.12.1 should be rolling out in the next day or two. This includes some stability fixes as well as debug mode.
I still write log messages to the console in some cases where it's useful to know what has failed.

Why doesn’t doing rhyme with boing? 🤔

We have been reminded of the most ridiculous music video we have ever seen.
May I, as a new year’s treat, introduce you to the delights of Elliot Mason?

Working on some WordPress plugins that I haven't updated for, like, 4 years. They still work perfectly. I suspect they will still work perfectly in another 4 years with very little change.
Would this be the same if I they were primarily JavaScript? Would a block that I wrote 2 or 3 years still ago still work today? Would it be easy to update?
It doesn't FEEL like it. I wonder what the reality is?

You have spoken… and I have heard. And I own up:
✋ My name is Ross and I am a lazy developer
✋ I need to do lots of debugging in Turbo Admin because, frankly, making it work as a browser extension requires me to do some pretty weird stuff
✋ And yes, I left the console.logs in. I don't know why. Perhaps I though you might find them interesting.
😬 But you have found them annoying. And that is perfectly fair.
🧑🏭 I shall work now on making a debug mode.

I should say this publicly as well as in a mention…
I just used @andyfragen'sGit Updater for the first time and it's 110% brilliant. Instant purchase. Great value for money too. Thanks for making this. Love it!!
