I do cherish @matias_ventura's vision of building an extensive customization playground within the WordPress Editor and leave shaping the final experience to 3rd party entities. Cheers to @vlad for sparking this conversation!

Moving our lives towards digital should carry forward the social norms that we are already accustomed to in real life, and @oanafilip knows this better than most.

The past six months have been the hardest in Pixelgrade’s history. They were also an opportunity to learn valuable lessons and question our way of doing things. We made a lot of sacrifices, but all this effort paid off and made us better and stronger. 👇

Product vs business difference:
– A product is something that solves someone’s problem.
– A business is a product that works so well that people will pay more than it costs to produce.

In these blurry times, I think we need to double down on the clarity with which we can see our environment. This is my attempt at doing this for the WordPress ecosystem.

"Having knowledge of something does not equal understanding it. And learning only comes from combining the two." — an insightful article by my brother @vladpotter pointed towards #developers power and responsibility: thinkwritecode.com/fixing-th…

I wonder if a cultural ethos/movement around “positive sum” would resonate widely
It’d recognize our increasingly intertwining fates, the importance of expanding ( sharing) the pie, and the need to refocus our attention towards abundance rather than scarcity, envy & status games
15 Jun 2019
Given that people are wired to seek status, how can we make status more of a positive sum game?
The internet offered people many new opportunities for status--new identities & communities & fields (whereas before it was mostly highschool sports)
What's the next innovation here?

Voltaire once said that "those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities” and @SachaBaronCohen reflects now on how social media lets authoritarians push absurdities to billions of people. Great speech on morality: youtube.com/watch?v=ymaWq5yZ…

Boiling coffee with a moka. This is a movie made with neutron images that shows the coffe making process. The movie was made at the cold neutron imaging beam line ICON at the Paul Scherrer Institute. The movie is 12x in the gif and 4x in the full video: buff.ly/2KDuOT4

– Days of nothing are a "soon-to-be lost plane of human experience" and the loss of solitude we are now experiencing is more than just an end of innocence.

Do y’all remember, before the internet, that people thought the cause of stupidity was the lack of access to information?
Yeah. It wasn’t that. 🤦🏼♀️
