🇺🇸🚀 Crafting fine goods @PrimoPlugins / @ThermalBeltSoft. Likes to joke. Censorship is mind control.

Welp, that happened faster than I predicted. Thought it would be end of 2027, then early 2027, but agentic traffic growing so fast that bots have now passed human traffic online for the first time in the Internet's history. https://t.co/2zX5bHdhsa

@sempac97 @YouTubeTV Same happening on HBO Max. Seems like a French Open problem.

Koko Analytics v2.4 is here!

Safer database imports, better filtering of non-human traffic and code hardening to prevent excessive resource usage by non-authenticated users when your dashboard is publicly available.

Update, like, share, subscribe. Hashtag marketing.

@mardehaym @arrington We need proof, otherwise this is another lazy Axios piece.

Very very solid response by Packagist & @naderman to improve Composer regarding recent attacks on open source packages ❤️

@AviBajpaiNC Why no vote on the other overrides today?

@KatieKeithBarn2 Nice! Haven't tried it without the MCP yet, but was able to use Claude + MCP to update the design and info architecture of 5 pages. It only took a couple minutes, far faster than doing it manually.

Curious to hear more about the screenshot workflow.

@mikemcalister @innerwebs @WordCampUS Make it inspirational!

@rmelogli @KatieKeithBarn2 "I struggle to see the logic in acquiring a brand and then giving it less focus."

My bet is they were acquiring customers, and not so much the brands and products, and had internal metrics for hosting customer conversion.

I have been waiting... 3 years??? for "Block Bits". I got tired of waiting. Now any of our plugins can register reusable little bits that can be purely presentational, like an icon, or informative like dynamic text in the middle of a sentence in an interactive.

[John Parris @John_Parris]

@GlamSpinTennis @TennisChannelPR It's a stream issue and happening across multiple devices/platforms.

It's 2026, in Silicon Valley. I ordered furniture and watched the staff type each item into a terminal program from the '90s. SKU number, color code, price, all entered manually. 30 minutes just to input the order.

No UI. No dropdowns. No validation. Unsurprisingly, we caught multiple typos on review, including the price.

They said it's common. Vendors often have to call back to confirm errors, adding more delays and manual work.

In the midst of the AI revolution, this is a reminder that technology adoption is still painfully slow in places you'd least expect.

GitHub Copilot is tightening limits and retiring Opus 4.6 Fast for Pro+ users.

That usually means one thing: the service has grown faster than the capacity model expected, and heavy concurrent usage is now affecting how the product is shaped.

For developers, the practical takeaway is simple:
- expect more explicit usage limits
- do not build workflows that assume unlimited AI calls
- keep a fallback for critical coding tasks

I have seen teams get caught out by this when they wire an assistant into everyday work without checking the usage rules first. Fine for prototypes. Risky in production workflows.

iOS: When you go to swipe left to dismiss a notice and new notice pops up and that's the one you dismiss instead, before you can even read it or see what app it was... happens at least once a month to me.

[John Parris @John_Parris]

Just going through the sticker collection and found this one for WP Cliffs Notes. Looks like this product no longer exists. I don’t even remember the name.

[John Parris @John_Parris]

@DuaneStorey Thanks. Curious how you like it. At first glance, I wonder if it sits too low for the way I use my Roost.

[John Parris @John_Parris]

Great post

Drupal turns 25 today. A quarter of a century. I captured 25 lessons from the journey. https://t.co/ENEK74KFxH #foss #opensource #web

@DuaneStorey Same here on search and the QC in general. I'm convinced they have very few people who actually use their software. Usability gets worse with every release. Death by 1000 cuts. It's not pleasurable to use like it was before.
