"If you think companies are going to pay “AI” wranglers senior-level pay in the long term, or that they’re going to pay for the time it takes to rewrite or properly comprehend the code being generated, then you’re missing the point of why employers are adopting the technology.

The point is to pay fewer of us less: replace senior coders with junior, specialists with generalists, and the trained with untrained."

This 👇I'm not bashing #tailwindcss I get why it saves CSS devs time & is a great choice for making a component library with. But handing it to a backend dev and not hiring a CSS dev and demanding perfect front-end? Fuck you for not, hiring people to do the work.
"This is deskilling. It lets employers and managers pretend that web project teams don’t need CSS expertise – or even just pretend that CSS expertise just doesn’t exist at all. This is what Tailwind is for."

"In this chaos, Bluesky became a sort of weird hybrid approach. It started out building for that first scenario (Twitter’s gonna bring the audience) and ended up having to do the second (build something new and hope the users come) all because of the third scenario (Elon bringing complete chaos to the ecosystem) suddenly opened up a new opportunity for the second scenario." @mmasnick

My team is hiring a PHP engineer -- mainly WordPress, some Laravel, some React, some Node. We build CMS backend & APIs for several high traffic sites, and the editorial workflow system.

This is the most laid back and the most productive team I have worked on. Code has pretty good test coverage and benefits are good.

DM me if you have questions. We can hire remote, but US-only

"Self-driving isn't about using automation to augment human skill – it's about replacing humans. There's no business case for spending hundreds of billions on better safety systems for cars (there's a human case for it, though!). The only way the price-tag justifies itself is if paid drivers can be fired and replaced with software that costs less than their wages."

I wrote an eBook about refactoring WordPress plugins. This book is for experienced WordPress developers who want to improve their plugins, use new modern best practices and adopt test-driven development.

This book contains no foo and bar. All the example code is based on code in plugins I've worked on. Also, it is not very long. It's not an introduction to WordPress development, it's about improving the PHP code you write.
