Got "block transforms" working in #RSVPMaker for #WordPress for one-click transformation of event listings to a version based on the Query Loop block (my variation, with or without a calendar grid). Allows for much greater design freedom.
One victory: figuring out how to turn a single block into a templated result including multiple blocks. Required some digging into the scant documentation on a JS function called createBlocksFromInnerBlocksTemplate.
Here's the block transforms code I used to turn a single #WordPress block into a Query Loop block with innerBlocks for the Post Template. The documentation covers the case of converting one block with innerBlocks to another. Here, I had to create the innerBlocks option using a template (similar to the process of creating a multi-block block variation) #Gutenberghttps://gist.github.com/davidfcarr/e6336ef4fa255d9034d7bab6e3a08e56
Last week, Bluesky took the training wheels off in the race to become "the next Twitter," dropping the requirement for an invite code. Usage tripled, according to @Similarweb estimates. Still way behind X/Twitter or even Threads.

Does any company make a hot water heater that uses the waste heat from air conditioning to help heat the water? Was just staring at my utility closet where my water heater sits right next to my furnace and suddenly it seemed obvious and dumb that I use electricity in to heat my water, then use more electricity to pump heat out of my condo and into the air outside
