I know lots of folks that would benefit from this course. Check it out it is really thorough.
Oh wow Remkus is dropping a 25-module, full-stack performance course on WordPress speed and optimization!! (Hopefully we got a small mention there 😅 ) Go check it out, seems massive
I was at a meetup a few weeks ago where folks talked about how they spend time on YouTube trying to learn about AI. I felt seen. I thought I was the only one. So, hat tip to everyone else out there watching AI videos on a Sunday evening when they could be doing anything else.

If you are a founder or leader in a #WordPress company, what resonates with you more: "fix delegation problems" or "develop delegation competency"?
Things I learned from @remkusdevries in his newsletter today: he doesn’t like Jazz. You have to read through the whole thing to find that nugget but his newsletter is one you *should* be reading.

"WordPress is the best platform for AI-assisted rapid application development because it is the only end-to-end framework that runs in the browser, locally, with zero setup, on any device, which also powers 40% of the web." - @andraganescu 🎤🫳
Em dashes are fine in moderation. I think the real question for me is does using AI to assist in writing posts/content qualify as a ‘gotcha’ still? Like are we penalizing people for using AI still? We are generating AI summaries now so are we even reading anymore?
