@briancoords Diamant / Incan Gold is fun and easy for everybody to play. One person kinda runs it, the rest have a simple “risk continuing or bank the treasure” decision.

CamelUp also seems great for those ages and is a blast!

@benswrite And like you mentioned, it’s incredibly valuable to then take those learnings and translate them into docs, or the product itself.

I truly believe that every skill you grow in support translates incredibly well in a plethora of other roles. Customer-centric thinking is key.

[Caleb Burks @WPprodigy]

@benswrite I’ve really enjoyed all the time I’ve spent in support roles. Learning customer perspectives and learning to recognize patterns of common issues and stumbling points.

And it is truly super validating every single time you solve a gnarly bug and help somebody. A day full of wins.

@Kathy_Darling @BobWP @Wonderm00n Also stumbled upon Tasco do Strauss and it was amazing, definitely recommend a dinner there, trying various small plates. Their Vinho Verde set the bar very high for the rest of the trip 😃

Casa do Fauno is another neat place to stop into, medieval style pub with a great view.

In many ways, WordPress 6.5 lays the foundational components of the next big wave of innovation in WordPress, particularly with the Interactivity API, Data Views, and Block Bindings.

I've never been more excited about the future of WordPress.

How about you?

[Caleb Burks @WPprodigy]

@kadamwhite @wpvip Hmm, yeah that might not be great to have as an unprompted default. I’ll take a look!

10 years ago today @aaronsw took his own life after overly aggressive prosecution.

He invented internet infrastructure.

He defeated the greatest threat the Internet had ever seen.

And you probably don't know who he is.

You should.

Here’s his story 🧵

@gschoppe And milk shakes!

@richtabor @automattic Welcome!

[Caleb Burks @WPprodigy]

@photomatt Another factor is the barrier to entry this adds for writing a “blog post”. The giant header image trend means you have to try and find something that relates somehow, and it’s a step even further than enforcing a title with every thought.
