It speaks volumes that the "big group of heavy hitters in the WordPress project" who signed this letter felt they had to stay anonymous. There is such a culture of fear that it is stifling. therepository.email/wordpres…
When you give a code review (eg leave a review on GitHub), how many comments are expected to get overlooked? (Eg you asked to rename a variable but the coder didn’t do it). If you left 10 comments, how many is a “normal” amount for the coder to overlook? 1-2? 3-4? Usually none?

@SetraHost hey it looks like my site hosted e weigh you, cmljnelson.blog , is down? But another one of mine, printmy.blog is fine. Is this a known issue? (Here’s a screenshot of what I’m getting, FYI I’m using cloud flare too)
Anybody I know want a 5 hours/week work helping me with my WordPress plugin? (Looking for developers or support or content writing etc). RTs appreciated.
Phew, thanks everyone! I think I’m going to make a form for applicants to fill out to help me pick someone. It’s just tricky putting time towards finding someone when I’m in the middle of having too much work. Ya know?

Got my first downright negative reviews this week: wordpress.org/support/topic/…
It’s good practice for me to not take offense so easily. I’d estimate these type of people are around 1/1000
I felt like world needed a song about space invaders with the recurring line “pew, pew, pew!”

Hey @lesley_pizza what’s the best way to report a bug in @NewsletterGlue ?(as a fellow plugin dev, not a customer)
Oh neat! @freemius interviewed me, took what I said and made it sound more awesome!

I have a problem with code created by AI. It’s equivalent to a contractor who just wants to whip together code in 5 minutes and ignores the established norms of the rest of the codebase. It always looks good at first but needs so much modification I’m not sure if it’s worth it
Sorry I’m not in love with AI for writing code. It smells. It has a way of writing a lot of code that accomplished something that often doesn’t need to be done.
Good for a first step, but AI-generated code always needs tweaking
