Some of my #blogs are quite #old so I was expecting a few #broken #links.

But the number is much higher than I expected. On average, 20% of all links are 404 (or similar).

The tools change. The models change. The harnesses change.

Three things won't: your domain expertise, systems thinking, and the architecture decisions you refuse to delegate to AI.

The WordPress plugins that are slowly disappearing from the web (ala their own sites are replaced with a single generic landing page), is getting felt. Truly felt in a deeper way than most.

Why is that?

I'll give you my take (even though my take doesn't matter at all).

I was hired by Liquid Web back when it was thinking about seriously getting into the WordPress game. We built a managed WordPress and a managed WooCommerce offering.

And in that process I made the recommendation to purchase iThemes. Not because we were trying to own plugins. Because they had features that were faster to integrate than to build ourselves. Backups / Security - useful utilities.

My recommendation, which our leadership and our board accepted, was a) keep the iThemes leaders in place, b) keep the iThemes brand in place, c) keep the products in the market.

A couple of years later, we started thinking about hosting for WordPress applications. These would be customers whose web site was the application (not website was about the application or company).

It's what @jason_coleman is doing today with membership hosting. But this was early.

So the plan, and the investment hypothesis, was to purchase brands that had strong brand equity (again leaving them to run independently, leaving their brands in market, leaving their leadership in place) and build targeted hosting solutions for membership sites, fundraising sites, courseware sites.

That's why we purchased Pippin's membership plugin, why we chased GiveWP, and why we went after LearnDash.

It was to turn them into vertical saas solutions powered by WordPress (and these key application-based plugins).

Later, I understood the idea of Stellar and its approach but disagreed with it, and it led to me moving on.

But I think when you see GiveWP, LearnDash, and Kadence, for example, all disappearing, I think the reason is because they're not just normal plugins.

They aren't utilities. They don't just do a task. If one of the plugins I use to route people to the latest post on my blog goes away, I look for another.

But these were full "solution" products that people embraced and let into their hearts, as well as their businesses.

When your entire business is sitting on a key product, and it no longer feels stable, it makes your own business feel unstable.

That's what I think is happening. Just my .02

In few weeks, everyone with 128gb Mac will have uncensored Opus-4.6 locally.

It will be Minimax-M3.0-JANGTQ-CRACK by @dealignai

The open-source community is working hard on fitting them into 24GB VRAM.

The future of Local LLM is so bright.

@KatieKeithBarn2 I vibe coded a tool that exports posts into individual local files. This makes it easier to do any type of modifications (e.g. finding broken links, missing alt tags...) and then resync. Use it at your own risk --> https://t.co/nA2KbqTAFI

How it's going: comment on the #WP Admin Area UI redesign planning thread. Guess the 20+ years contributing to #WordPress and helping the community translates to I'm just another old person who is resistant to change. I need to ignore my own needs and just follow the minority.

I rarely do predictions but this is an easy enough one to make:

Big Tech will bring back onsite interviews for the final round of interviews, flying in candidates.

When you pay top of market, AND do hybrid work, in the age of invisible AI helpers, remote interviews are a risk

ICYMI: The three #laws of #software #agents 🤖 by Isaac #Asimov (kind of 😉)

We often complain about the high % of #software #projects that fail 💥💥 (take #longer, over #budget, not meeting expectations,...).

But as Neil Ernst said, it could be that non-software projects have similar failure rates

Unfortunately, we don't have good data 📈📉 for neither
