Sigh, I spent hours and hours working with a client to figure out why #GoogleAnalytics stopped being reported for their #Drupal site. Turns out to be a two line bug in the google_tag module that made a checkbox checked by default no matter what value was selected before.

I'm not sure why folks in the #Drupal community are confused about how regular people and small organizations are finding the product hard to use after years and years and years of Dries pushing the project to be "enterprise-level".

Maybe instead of #StarShot, we should call it #DrupalTimeMachine where we try to correct the gigantic mistakes that we made in the past.

#Drupal #Starshot: We're building a distribution but not calling it a distribution, including initiatives that we were doing anyway, to make it easier for users to do things quickly, but we don't know exactly what those things will be or how they will be implemented, but it can all be done in 8 months, because we are going to solve our governance problems by bypassing our usual governance process.

Was curious why only one #Drupalcon session was accepted from our entire company, when normally there are at least three or four. However, looking at the program, I see there are six sessions about #AI scheduled for today alone.

I, for one, will be wearing an #N95 mask to #Drupalcon, and I encourage others to do the same, since the #covid pandemic is not actually over and many attendees will have medical issues that either make them extra susceptible to infection or make it potentially catastrophic if they do contract the virus.

Adding John Wilson to my #TimeTravelHitList to prevent him from convincing everyone to make quotations inaccurate in a misguided pursuit of typographic "neatness".

I got in minor trouble at work for posting this cartoon in the learn-ai slack channel. Apparently, I am hurting people's feeling by pointing out their irrational exuberance for new technologies built by billionaire sociopath grifters.
