  What's a word for a person who used to do something? e.g. Jane is a ______ contributor to the project. It's not alumni. It's not posthumous because the person is still alive. #English #vocabulary #grammar

  Remember #php people to take the The State of PHP 2026 survey. Looking at you #drupal #laravel #codeigniter and #WordPress people. You’re still PHP developers, even if you don't call yourselves PHP developers. https://surveys.jetbrains.com/s3/state-of-php-2026-sh

  Hey everyone! I know I've been quiet on here for a while. I've been working hard to finish and publish a project. I also documented it using Read the Docs. Opal Version 3 is a command line framework for Bash users. There a new Bash scripting library that makes it much easier to write shell scripts, and a great way to power your dotfiles. https://andrewwoods.net/blog/2026/opal-v3-released/ Check it out! #bash #shell #dotfiles #neovim #vim #developertools #MacOS #Linux #sof...

  Who has a great about page for their personal website? I’m updating the content on andrewwoods.net, my personal website. My goal is to write an about page that would appeal to an employer, as well as a new friend. What would you like to know about me? My current about page url is https://andrewwoods.net/web-developer/ I named the page ‘web-developer' because the name `/about` was determined to be bad by an SEO tool. #DevLife #IndieWeb #UX #SocialMedia

  Do you publish a podcast? Do you listen to each episode before you publish it? I'm guessing no. There is a lot of deja vu happening. By this I mean a repetition on content. The time code is always moving forward, but the conversation is rewound. Usually it's 1-2 minutes. This latest podcast I listened to was between 7-10 minutes. There were 2 instances of this. So what should've been 1 hour was 1 hour 20 minutes. I suspect it’s some editing tools gone wrong. Do better...

  Do you have any PHP projects running on Dreamhost? If you haven't checked in on them in a while, *HEADS UP!* Dreamhost may be charging you $5/month if your website is on an unsupported PHP version. That’s anything below 8.2. PHP 8.5 Active Support PHP 8.4 Active Support PHP 8.3 Security Updates only PHP 8.2 Security Updates only Try to update your PHP to at least 8.4 so you get active support, and your developers can do *even more awesome things* #PHP #Dreamhost #WebDev

  Do you use the Vim support in Obsidian? You know there's no ESC key on the iPhoneOS on-screen keyboard. Here's a minimal .obsidian.vimrc to use, which includes a remap that lets you use jj in insert mode to act as ESC #vimrc #obsidian #tips #tipoftheday #productivity

  The lyrics in Rush songs are so expressive, intelligent, and meaningful. When you combine this with their musicianship and songwriting, you get something powerful. There's a foundation for a philosophy in the music. Listen to the albums “Hold Your Fire”, “Grace Under Pressure", and “Power Windows" for examples of what I mean. If everyone could just be a little more thoughtful, and live a little closer to the heart, maybe we can we make the world better and brighter....

  I'm listening to the song “Elephant" by Tame Impala on WFUV, a NYC radio station. I wonder if Tame Impala know that their bass player nailed the Doctor Who theme bass tone. wfuv.org #DoctorWho #TameImpala #wfuv

  New Text Editor Idea: Dvorim (Dvorak + Neovim). Vi (also Vim and Neovim) are powerful modal editors. But they're designed around QWERTY. So if you wanted to change to Dvorak, then the navigation keys hjkl are no longer convenient. The “home row" keys get moved. The little changes prevent switching to Dvorak Dvorim would be an interesting editor. We have the 50 years of experience since Vi was created to improve the modal editing experience with a better keyboard layout #vim #...

  Hello! My cyborg name is “Artificial Wireless Organism Optimized for Dangerous Sabotage”. Nice to meet you! 😂 I found this post from 2009 on my website. https://andrewwoods.net/blog/2009/my-cyborg-name/ Note: The broken image link is a lesson in why you shouldn’t rely on network resources.

  RESIST AND UNSUBSCRIBE! Take a look at the big companies that support ICE. Remove your support from them. Doing it now in February, with all of us acting in unison, we can have an effect. https://www.resistandunsubscribe.com This great idea is by @profgalloway #resistICE

  The Meidas Touch Network is live streaming The People's State of the Union. This is the one to watch https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oArKZutSbF0 In protest, many Democrats in Congress are reportedly not going to attend the State of the Union that Trump is giving. You should skip watching it too. Shout out to the Meidas Mighty #MeidasTouch #peoplesSOTU #StateOfTheUnion #SOTU

  So I created a new matrix account – “@awoods@phpc.social:frei.chat” – to experiment. I’ve managed to join chat rooms on other matrix servers. Now I can chat with people in the Linux Unplugged and the Destination Linux communities. Well, I `can` but I'm actually just lurking for now :D If you're also setting up a matrix account, feel free to chat with me. cc @Elegantbeef@mastodon.gamedev.place @wuethrich@social.tchncs.de #matrix #linux #DevLife

  Whoa! I just watched a video on youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MupWm6_2Svg titled "3I/ATLAS Just RESPONDED Using Non-Human Syntax" recorded by Michio Kaku about the interstellar object 3I/Atlas. It's 16:55 minutes in length He provides a report of what happened, describes what his team is doing, but also add quite a bit of conjecture about what it could mean, and what it's all about. The video was only posted 2026 Jan 12 (19 hours ago), so this news is very fresh #...
