TIL that you can make the Gutenberg button block render as a <button> element and not just an <a> element. Huge win from accessibility if you're using buttons to trigger interactive elements.
So you wanna build a light/dark toggle for your WordPress block theme? Check out my latest tutorial on doing it with the Interactivity API! 👇 https://t.co/EAMRvBb7Up

I sort of miss livestreaming. Would anyone be interested in watching me muck around in Woo/WordPress with the faint sounds of my children yelling in the background?

Same but Geocities, Angelfire, and Tripod.
Man, I miss Adobe Dreamweaver and Flash.

With Kit's prices going up, I need to finish migrating my newsletter to wordpress[.]com. To be fair, Kit's prices should be going up! They provide a ton of value, I'm just not really using any of it right now.

The fun thing about remote work is instead of taking my breaks on a children's playground with a bunch of adult coworkers I already spend all day with, I can take backyard trampoline breaks with my kids any time.

Am I the only person who would love for these secondary tabs in Gutenberg to be sticky? Especially in the global styles panel when scrolling through the giant lists of blocks.
