First practice for #WCUS speed build. I definitely need a few more practice sessions and to figure out what exactly is the best use of 30 minutes and would provide the most value to the audience. (And it's really hard to speed build without writing code.)

Finally booked flights for #WCUS- who will I see there?

Should you build as close to WordPress Core as possible? hubs.li/Q02N4kTP0 WPTuts & Brian Coords 💻 with WordPress blog & podcast

Two weeks later and finding PocketCasts is pretty good. The ability to add something to the top or bottom of your current queue is one of my favorite Apple Music features so glad to have it here too.

Weekend experiment - how easy is it to add an Open AI integration to a Gutenberg block? I created a block that reads your article, writes a sharable tweet about it, and shows up as a "Click to Tweet" callout. Might have to do a tutorial on this one. github.com/bacoords/examp…

Livestreaming later this morning (11am PDT) for more WCUS full site editing builder practice. I'm drinking extra coffee. Click on the video and hit "Notify".

Does this happen to anyone - even when you've killed a node script like "npm run start", it turns back on when you change branches (in VSCode's embedded terminal)?

Nick's ability to hone in on a block editor pain point and provide an elegant and completely "native" solution is totally unmatched in WordPress.

This was a lot of fun to record: Go Podcasting! and I dig into all the important concepts of "WordPress" like open source, Automattic, Jetpack, WP Tavern, WordCamps, dot com / dot org, and so much more.

My wife sent me the link to the recipe she picked for dinner tonight and it was a Canva mock-up link what is happening to the internet.

After years of homeschooling, our three oldest are starting their first full-time, on-campus school year today. I was not emotionally prepared for that morning drop-off experience!
