I heard the term "attention farmers" used in context of "haters" trying to spin up with conversations on (usually because those get the most likes/reposts). Love that term.

Time is precious, so little I have of it. Focus on productive things and be a barren wasteland for attention farmers.

I was new to SQL so I found an “intro to SQL” book on the company bookshelf, and read it over a weekend.

From that point on, I was seen as an SQL expert amongst colleagues.

It was a revelation about our industry."

Also: still very useful.

@sarajw Thank you for that! Helps my brain make sense.

For me it doesn't change much. If it looks like a cake my body will act accordingly and it will take time for my taste buds to send my brain the memo.

  1. Ca. 2006, eBoy made this gorgeous poster about stuff associated with Web 2.0

  2. I totally forgot I have a copy of this.

  3. I feel very confident saying this was a huge influence on the opening credits for "Silicon Valley"

#WordPress 6.6

…set to be released on July 16, 2024… builds on the foundation with some new items, like section styles and overrides in synced patterns… Font Library and Interactivity API. Data Views, the first taste of the admin redesign work introduced in 6.5, continues to evolve with new layout options, a combined template part and pattern experience, and more readily accessible management sections.”
