10/10; thank you so much!


Thanks for the feedback.


> you can't use "Wordpress" in your product names, and WP Engine is doing that

WP Engine is explicitly not doing that.

If you are selling "Core Wordpress" WP Engine is explicitly naming a product using "Wordpress". If it was "Core WP" that would be fine.


They just changed the naming after this dispute started.


What’s your timeline look like on that fancy supabase connector?

Auth is literally the next thing I’m working on…


But if I do own those sites, there’s a way?


Cajun cuisine and multiple types of BBQ come to mind.


Licensing costs. It’s cheaper to design your own typeface than to license others when a platform reaches a large scale.


I too thought Vue would be a solid fit for what they described.


As I work from home (and for myself), my experience in managing myself includes:

* Doing something productive before work. Usually, this is cooking a mildly-elaborate breakfast (kale & miso-onions, zucchini, English muffin w/ a slice of tomato & saurkraut, and scrambled eggs). Other times it’s going to yoga. The point is to do something that makes me feel like I’m making progress.

* Answer emails/texts and write down a task list for the day. Oftentimes this is the same as the day before, but the act of writing it out helps me psychologically solidify what I’m going to do for the day.

* Coffee. These days, I drink RYZE and really enjoy the elevated feelings (it def needs some honey and non-dairy creamer). Previously, I’ve been into single-origin coffees from Kenya, Ethiopia, and Honduras (can’t stand the stuff from Indonesia). It was a fun (if expensive) hobby for a while. The point here is to have a ritual.

* Ritalin.


I imagine that, when working with reddit for 8+ years, he got a pretty good sense of what their culture is like.

His latest experience seems to be pretty out of line given the longevity of their relationship.

"Naive"? Maybe, but I can cut him some slack.


I would figure that, over those 8+ years, he likely dealt with developer relations and/or reddit's development team directly. The API changes aren't technical as much as they're business, and he's probably dealing with a different group within reddit.


>I imagine that, when working with reddit for 8+ years, he got a pretty good sense of what their culture is like.

He literally said "they kind of didn’t do the bullshit corporate speak." I've definitely been using reddit for 8+ years and I can tell you that's not true.


I’ve had a Thuma frame for over a year now.

No rattling, no loosening. I plan to purchase another one (a king size) later this year.
