I help people build awesome stuff with WordPress.

Using View Transitions API for cross-document animations seems to be so fragile. So many things can cause it to be janky or just refuse to animate all together.

Nice simple calendar view built for use with Bricks query loop, paired with filters and a popup template for showing the post info.

+ less frequently..

Melatonin - sleep/circadian rhythm

My current daily “live past 100” suppliment stack:

Omega-3 - heart/brain
Vitamin D - immune/bones
Creatine - strength/brain
Glutamine - gut recovery
Magnesium - sleep/muscles
Ubiquinol - mitochondria/energy
Urolithin A - mitochondrial cleanup
Avmacol - sulforaphane / antioxidant

@nickarceco @_tonylewis You can copy/paste HTML/CSS direct into Bricks now and it should map to the elements and use global classes etc.

Working on improving Bricks' dark/light color schemes with some new toggle switches & view transitions to help smooth out the color changes 😀

Instant Australian of the year. Hero.

This man’s fruit shop business about to explode.

Remember this name: Ahmed El Ahmad.

Fruit shop owner.
Father of two.
43 years old.

When chaos erupted at Bondi Beach, he became a shield for innocent lives — Jews and Australians alike.

This is what a real hero looks like 🇦🇺❤️

@trenchesKnight @justin_kastil @Abmankendrick Skeleton loading is often just an overlay with roughly the same layout as the expected content loading in, which is then removed as it loads in.

That's different to the content loading as it comes, ie text first, then images, etc.

@nickarceco I feel like D would have won had there not been as much spacing between the icon + text - that's the part that makes it feel off for me, not the icon size.

The gap feels proportional in B, but not in D.

Early days still, but VideoJS v10 seems promising.

Noticing some names from existing video player solutions.. Vidstack, Plyr, MediaChrome appear to be involved.

I definitely spend way too long on details very few people will even notice 😁

This morning it was.. morphing play/pause icons with CSS.

Pointed my iPhone at the sky in Northern Queensland (Australia) with Night mode & a 10-second exposure.

The sky looked pretty great in real life, as we were somewhere very dark, but amazing to see how much of Milky Way core came through in the photo.

[ᴅᴀᴠɪᴅ 👨‍💻 @wplit]

@nickarceco Yes, it's part of the core CSS for gutenberg.

Found a way to remove it, but there's a lot of other styles in that CSS file also, so need to find it if breaks other things if removed.

Will be trying out both Etch & Clutch WP builders this weekend 🧐

Constantly tweaking and improving BricksExtras features based on ongoing feedback.

Right now.. adding gradient fill support for line charts.

Simple way to instantly modernise.

Bricks 2.0 stable is here

This release is the result of a lot of hard work, creativity, and collaboration from our team and the community.

I’m excited to see what everyone creates with it, and I’m even more excited about the new ideas and improvements this release will inspire.

[ᴅᴀᴠɪᴅ 👨‍💻 @wplit]

@srikat Exactly what happened to me, all I did was change my password. It took weeks to get the account back.

[ᴅᴀᴠɪᴅ 👨‍💻 @wplit]

@srikat Yeah, it depends where you compare it to.

For me, Australia is still the lowest so far compared to any other places I've lived long enough to pay tax.

(UK and Spain higher than Aus at every income level when including social security / NI payments)
