It's hard to believe I'm back here, but there's too many important conversations to have and too many things going on to miss out. Planning to post about #WordPress, #php, and community.

There is a proposal on Reddit for the #wordpress community to provide a mirror of the asset repos and give back to the Foundation as well. It’s here: reddit.com/r/Wordpress/s/… The proposal needs @photomatt to bless it, since it requires some use of the original repo.

You cannot rewrite a piece of software and add new features at the same time. You CAN refactor a piece of software and add new features at the same time. This is why refactoring beats rewriting almost every time.

Established companies should employ a Chief Quality Officer. Their purview should be user-facing bugs and performance issues caused by low quality code. Their focus should be getting quality improvements into software that directly impact user experience.

Modernizing PHP applications is about more than the code. It’s about practices, too, like testing, TDD, CI/CD, and more.

Why do I push good code so hard? After all, isn’t working code the main goal? It is. But working code has limits if it’s designed badly. Good code is easier to maintain - something you’ll do a lot of - and gives you more flexibility in the future.
