@montchr Leave the faucet running

@jgarber @alistapart They just re-platformed to WordPress

@McDwayne Hey I remember seeing you at various WordPress meetups. I have some technical questions about @getpantheon Who would be the best person to answer my questions?

Who wore it better?

They arrested Santa Claus

@redcrew Mine are always websites

@kentcdodds I only managed to choreograph a rousing air hockey game with myself m.youtube.com/watch?v=zih7uRaRWg…

I mean look at what we can do on the web today:
– run a spreadsheet application
– watch TV
– aggregate thousands of 280 character messages from around the world in real time

These are highly complicated things that we have dreamed up for the web to do

You can still write some markup and serve it up from a webserver just like @timberners_lee did 30 years ago. What has changed is our expectations of the modern web and that has required more and more technical complications to push the web forward.

“I firmly believe that, as Tim Berners-Lee put it, “this is for everyone.” And I don’t just mean it’s for everyone to use—I believe it’s for everyone to make as well.”

The web has always had a high technical barrier to entry but it is also resilient and backwards compatible

“The people who make the web vs. the people who are excluded from making the web.”

@sf_tristanb Speaking of personal preferences I wrote my own barebones plugin for making Twig work with WordPress github.com/kingkool68/sprig

It works just the way I like it.

@sf_tristanb I do like using Twig. Took me a little bit for it to click as I kept seeing examples of it being used with a lot of effort making PHP things available in Twig. I use it to purely render HTML with the data that is passed to it.

@sf_tristanb Yeah there’s a lot of web dev stuff that simply boils down to personal preference. I’m torn between monolithic repos vs modular “everything is managed via Composer” repos. There is pros and cons to both. Bedrock just doesn’t click for me. But if it works for others that is great.

@sf_tristanb @rootswp It’s just an odd directory structure that had already completed things for me

@caseydriscoll You might say its gravitation pull will suck you right in…

Whenever I see someone mention using Bedrock by @rootswp I get depressed. twitter.com/sf_tristanb/status/1…
