This looks fantastic. It looks like what Gutenberg core should be. . .a PHP API for building blocks. You don’t have to write a line of custom JS to be able to use the power of Gutenberg. A good PHP API like this will empower WordPress is so many ways.

Anyone know who did this? It’s blowing my mind. Occasionally you see the future and I feel like this is one of those times. t.co/QrQvXJcnbZ
Now that Google+ has been shuttered, I should air my dirty laundry on how awful the project and exec team was.
I’m still pissed about the bait and switch they pulled by telling me I’d be working on Chrome, then putting me on this god forsaken piece of shit on day one.
Off to the playground!
I hadn’t heard of the Request Map Generator tool before, but it looks like a *super* useful tool: trentwalton.com/notes/2018/05/30… #aeaorl
I give today a 10/10
The WordPress debacle is more an issue of poor tooling (React) than commitment. When the tool chosen does not readily support accessibility, technical compromises will most often toss accessibility to the curb. Unfortunately they’ve repeatedly doubled down on the tool over users.
I have resigned as the WordPress accessibility team lead. Here is why.

Actually, if you’re on Safari it’s now green so look for that. But remember – if you’re on Chrome it’s now grey so look for that *unless* you haven’t updated to v69 which means look for green. Oh – if it’s Chrome on mobile then don’t look for it because it’s not there.
Also, you might be part of the Chrome experiment to deprecate that first thing which means you won’t see it but you can still trust us. Alternatively, if you’re on Safari then that thing is now gone altogether so don’t look for it.
Dear users, please stop looking for the thing you were always told to look for and now look for a different thing instead (but only in one browser). Also, read and understand the other thing that users are terrible at reading and understanding. twitter.com/myetherwallet/status…

I’m sometimes asked if working in Film/TV detracts from my enjoyment of watching shows, b/c I’m aware of what’s going on behind the lens. I tell them that I often appreciate something more knowing the craft that went into it. E.g.: This is some real movie magic shit right here: t.co/7YqYOb9zmV
