Musk is an enemy of Europe. There is no justification for continuing to use his products

I have deleted all my tweets, all replies, unfollowed everyone and removed all my followers on Twitter. AMA.

Incredible. Also, incredibly dumb. 😅

I would love to work with a designer who understands the web.

API documentation as MS Word document. I had almost forgotten that this part of the internet also existed.

Someone has to feed the machine. And it's not going to be Dwayne Elizondo Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho.

AI will stagnate software development if there are no more humans feeding it innovative and creative new ideas.

The main drawback of @generatepress.com is the mouse-first nature. When I'm coding, I rarely touch my mouse. In the block editor with GP, I constantly have to move between keyboard and mouse.

"And if all others accepted the lie which the Party imposed—if all records told the same tale—then the lie passed into history and became truth." —George Orwell, 1984

I wish @jetbrains.com would either offer a community version of Qodana for PHP or remove the three-contributor-limit from the Ultimate edition.

BBC just released damning research on AI assistants' news accuracy. Results: 51% of AI responses had significant issues. 19% introduced errors when citing BBC. 13% misquoted or made up BBC content entirely. 🤐🤐 www.bbc.co.uk/aboutthebbc/... via @ezraeeman.bsky.social

This is not surprising at all: When the AI generates language loaded with confidence and implying deep knowledge, it's easy to fall into trust and start assuming it's doing good work. Less effort in doing something means you spend less energy paying attention.

Maybe it's age, maybe it's the times, but it definitely resonates.

The researchers also found that “users with access to GenAI tools produce a less diverse set of outcomes for the same task [...] and thus can be interpreted as a deterioration of critical thinking.” www.404media.co/microsoft-st...

I have experienced this to some level and I think it's only going to get worse. www.reddit.com/r/webdev/s/J...

Asking for advice is different from asking for a solution. youtu.be/LxehKQ8HTL4

“For modern developers, documentation might as well be fine print”. Weird sentence there @fly.io.

The free market has never solved anything.

Who in their right mind would want to organize a WordCamp™️ right now?

Mobile-first is a lie!

Hey Laravel peeps, do you accept the sail command's start up time?

@jetbrains.com are there plans to introduce branching in AI chats? I regularly find myself wanting to have a little aside in without losing nor amending the context.

Getting a Laravel project running with sail is not smooth sailing.

I don't know how I learned about @oddbird.dev only today. It's a fantastic website with incredibly useful tools for web development: oddbird.dev/tools/

I want a default bookmarking API, and then I want a browser that works with that API. In fact, I want APIs for everything, bookmarks, read-later, AI/agent-integrations, dev-tools, etc. Browser as a framework. That's what I want.

@thewp.world is it possible to set my newsletter email address to something different from my login address?

This can't be legal in the EU, right? a) If you want to exchange my money for a different (made-up) currency, don't you have to be a bank? b) Imagine if your savings "expired" after a year unless you effectively put more money into that bank. www.airalo.com/help/en/my-a...

Every single plan I make, no matter how much I want to do it, there's a moment before I go where I wished I could cancel.

Democracy, baby!

Wow. it must feel terrible when someone takes something you made and uses it without permission or payment

It really doesn't hurt to look at the websites you built, or you're currently building, without CSS.

Bob Dylan is going to pass someday and y'all be listening to his music for a day. When, in fact, you should be listening to some Dylan every day.

He's going to rename American black people next. readwise.io/reader/share...

Why doesn't #iOS have a day and time based notification system per app. It would be so much more useful than the focus thing.

Do I know any Elementor pros (especially exporting/importing/migrating/merging data) who are willing to hop on a call one of these days and help me out? Please send availability and hourly rate. 🙏

Why can't the Shopify checkout show shipping costs before I enter all the information? Isn't this a GDPR violation in the EU?

I sincerely wish the normal media would stop qualifying EM as “the richest man in the world”. 1. Rich in what? It's not wisdom or compassion. 2. It's mostly unrealized returns. If he started selling, he wouldn't be the richest anymore. 3. What context does this add to most news?

The Owen-Wilson-Wow-API. Wow! https://owen-wilson-wow-api.onrender.com/

When you add books to Apple Books, it converts them into a folder with the *.epub extensions; similar *.app on macOS. Most (all?) e-readers expect a standalone (i.e., zipped) EPUB file. This small PHP script can convert them.

#TIL 1. Open dev tools 2. Enter `document.designMode = "on"` in the console tab 3. Be amazed! 🌈 🤯

It's possible to create a new WordPress site with SQLite directly. With a little intervention, there is no need to spin up a MySQL that would immediately get disregarded after installation.

Maybe not...

I was using a plugin that fixed the major annoyance of #WordPress Block Editor's narrow, fixed-width sidebars. Sadly, this stopped working properly with WP 6.6+. Here is a forked version 1.0.0 with a comprehensive changelog: https://github.com/alpipego/resizable-editor-sidebars/releases/tag/1.0.0

WordPress belongs to all of us.
