Hoping for a spinoff where they explain how this made it down the garbage chute.

I’ve made the difficult decision to leave a lovely group of humans at Pixel & Tonic. Thank you for so much good in relentlessly strange times.

A good explanation doesn’t just arrive at the right idea, it’s arranged carefully to help someone avoid all those reasonable wrong ones.

Not sure how Japan and Mexico feel about this, but Tapatio apparently makes ramen. It’s pretty good.

My favorite coffee creamer has just become horchata, pushing “none at all” to second place. Thank you, Texas.

Switched my projects from self-hosted @usefathom to a subscription. Looks good, feels good.

It’s been a rich, full day and it’s not even 9am yet.

Today’s @storybookjs release has lots of exciting stuff! 😍🎉

🎨 MDX for rich documentation
🎛️ multiple frameworks in a project
📦 web components framework support
⚙️ simpler configuration with main.js

One of my favorite tools + always getting better!
github.com/storybookjs/st…

Discovered Storybook’s UI *and* component previews can toggle dark mode easily. Which is nice. 🥰

workingconcept.com/blog/storybook…

Having one of those mornings where you switch from Hyper back to iTerm but you need the icon to look more like your Spaceship + Atom One Dark prompt?

I made you an app icon.

TIL with @ohmyzsh you can tab after `npm run ` to cycle through package.json scripts. ✨

I’d like to partially apologize to @ChaseGiunta for my disparaging weather-related remarks. I did not realize that a 30° day could come right after a 75° day in this strange new place.

I ❤ Storybook for Twig, React, and Vue components with knobs. Looking at Fractal, stumbled on Docz. Are there other component-documenting projects ya'll are liking?

I like Gmail's response suggestions, but this one hurts a little.

Without ceremony this morning, my car became Texan. Please try and contain yourselves.

Just published Snipcart 1.2.0 with GraphQL support for Product Details fields. 🎉

workingconcept.com/plugins/snipca…

Just published the serverless form handler I built for my Gatsby transition. Give me a shout if you need help using it or have any feedback! github.com/workingconcept…

workingconcept.com is now a Gatsby frontend on Netlify.

Still powered by Craft CMS, where Live Preview is happy and stable. Few more things to solve and then I'll write an uncomfortably long blog post.

My AWS bill is projected to octuple. These Lambda functions better be worth it.

Craftsby: a @CraftCMS website built with a @gatsbyjs frontend.

Example: “Converting this first Craftsby site is going to take longer than I thought.”

I see what you did, AWS. My little Lambda function can run pretty much for free, but each item in AWS Secrets Manager is going to set me back $0.40. We'll see who has the last laugh.

If you're comfortable with PHP and uncomfortable writing Lambda functions, Bref is a great way in. Worked flawlessly with a little Slim project! bref.sh

404 page with a 200 response = ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Just released Snipcart 1.1.0 to support Product Details in Matrix blocks for those that work in hard mode.

workingconcept.com/plugins/snipca…

The real winner is @Djawadi_Ramin. This season's soundtrack is beautiful.

Excited to be running with @benrogerson's Storybook starter on a new @CraftCMS project. Automatic @tailwindcss documentation, interactive Twig components with device previews, variable background colors and accessibility checks. Dreamy stuff.

Added a console cache-purging utility to the latest Cloudflare plugin. `./craft cloudflare/purge/purge-all` could be useful for deployments. github.com/workingconcept… #craftcms

Just released Snipcart 1.0.6, which includes spiffy new store performance charts! workingconcept.com/plugins/snipca…

Can anyone recommend a motion graphics studio for creating illustrative product animations?

It's taken me 10 years, 9 months and 2 days to get to my thousandth tweet. If glaciers twittered I think we'd have a close race.

Thank you @vuepress, @PixelAndTonic, and @Netlify for making it easy to focus on writing documentation rather than endless tinkering with publishing, theming, and hosting.

Excited to finally release the Snipcart plugin on the Craft CMS plugin store! Build a full-featured Craft store in a day with @snipcart + @craftcms: plugins.craftcms.com/snipcart 🎉 🎊

Discovered a problem with my responsive widow-handling approach. Anybody that ran with it might want to grab my (simpler) fix for it: workingconcept.com/blog/preventin…

tl;dr Wrap+class a normal space and control it with `white-space: nowrap` and `white-space: normal`.

Thanks for the shoutout, @snipcart! I'm glad somebody benefitted from that humble plugin effort. snipcart.com/blog/snipcart-…

Good morning, Chrome. You're looking sharp today.

Caching a wrong does not make it right.

I bet 'kernel panic' has a completely different meaning in the farming community.

@BreezeTeam Hi! Two import questions: 1) can *existing* GitLab issues be imported/synced easily, and 2) is there a quick/easy Trello import?

Just when you think @LindseyDiLoreto couldn't be more infuriatingly cool and generous with his time, he proves you wrong. What a human.

At what point do higher-than-normal call volumes simply become normal again?

@joannbc I'm guessing you'd find it useful if I got further than picking a name, eh? Sorry—just moved on to other stuff and never finished.

@lukeholder I struggled to implement brianhaveri.github.io/Underscore.php… only to realize it tries to interpret the PHP templates and errors out.

@lukeholder I've failed hard at getting Underscore integrated tonight. I'll have another go at it soon though.

@LindseyDiLoreto @lukeholder @themccallister Moving on now, but scratched out a start in this dev branch: github.com/mattstein/craf…

Just roughed out a Craft plugin generator in this dev branch: github.com/mattstein/craf…. Contribute/heckle/etc.

Now that Vagrant has finally wandered into my workflow, I have to find something new to be confused about.

@LindseyDiLoreto Would you permit me to steal your Business Logic template whenever I can get started? (linked @ craftplug.in).

Are there any #craftcms pros out there who might be willing to share an example Vagrant+Mac setup?

@LindseyDiLoreto Looking at Craft Business Logic. Have you considered a mini-app like pkg.io?

Vagrant 1, Matt 0. So far a humbling, frustrating experience with the promise of bliss.

@Readmill Sad that my favorite way to read will be no more—thanks for the great work, rocking Scala, and getting me to read more in general.

@CloudFlare Can I get help with issue 95583? In hindsight we could've changed the DNS instead of waiting on support. Client not thrilled.

@krea Sent an email: /elements/wysiwyg/ckeditor/skins/wygwam3 missing from themes directory in Content Elements 1.6.6, or user error?

@ServerBear Thanks for a rare and useful+objective source for web host information! Is it possible to add VPSCheap (vpscheap.net)?

@mediatemplehelp Is there a recommended way of upgrading a DV4 to PHP5.5?

Webfaction said I could have a free month if I tweeted about its service. I wrote a blog post instead: workingconcept.com/blog/109-days-…

Today's twelfth man mob is enjoyable when I pretend it's here to support gay marriage or something more worthwhile. No offense, Seahawks.

@SeattlePD Saw several officers arresting two individuals at gunpoint in Pioneer Square, just after lunch. What was that?

I guess we should consider @gitboxapp dead. "Soon" has passed, no response from Oleg. Fiery passion for Bitcoins, no update/news for Gitbox.

@EverBankHelp It was annoying that your login form used to pop a new tab, but *forcing* a new window now? Why?! Unjustified annoyance.

@mediatemplehelp Client site on vzx362 is utterly down and can't be rebooted or accessed. Outage?

@PagodaSupport pagodabox.com appears to be down along with all my Pagoda apps. Is it just me or is there a problem?

@panic Thank you so much for Transmit bookmark syncing! Life just got easier today.

@CloudFlareSys Any known issues with Seattle servers today? Client experiencing downtime.

@disqushelp After *exactly* 24 hours my 110-comment import got "Error with import" status. Trying for 2 days. Is there anything I can do?

Installing CS5.

Just realized it's Flag Day. Happy Flag Day.

Thanks, IE6 and your confusion with gzip, for taking a day and a half of my damn weekend. I hope you die soon.

Found out this morning that somebody used my credit card to stay at a nice hotel in Bologna. And it wasn't me!

Facebook, I am done "liking" pages. No offense to anyone -- it's just my new policy.

I'm now the proud owner of interwebulo.us. Now I just need to figure out how to make it awesome.

Politically-motivated tweets can be tough.

Thank you Google, for dropping IE6. Can we all agree to do the same now?

Most rewarding part of an app purchase: putting it in the dock.

Made my own corned beef hash, now making sense of PureMVC's overview diagram.

Is Flex Builder an obvious win, or is a more duct-tapey toolset (TextMate/Eclipse + Flex SDK + Flash) just fine?

Just saw a lady riding a bike with one hand, because she had coffee in the other. And she even looked like she was having a nice time.

Anybody else feel a tiny earthquake?

Raina actually says we're waiting to board the 8. Really glad she knows what we're doing. Already tried to check my own carryon.

Waiting for the 7 at King Street Station. Hoping for steam, and that somebody yells "all aboard!"

Recovered from a great night. Drank and danced my little heart out.

Dunno which is better: OK Go's WTF video, or the "making of" video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TNeItlrTdvY

Another beautiful morning!

Got demitasse spoons today, and I feel civilised. (With an "s".)

Fail: I walked into the other room, poured myself coffee, then came back to my desk empty-handed.

Walking home, I saw a discarded promo postcard. New club? Cheap drinks? No. Meet the MySQL server team. What a city.

Meeting downtown.

Tough Halloween for Seattle's emergency crews.

Firefighters put the fire out, but they're still tearing it apart. Somebody's gonna be pissed when they get back to the car.

Somebody waiting at the light (Olive/Broadway) was just blasting Annie Lennox - Sweet Dreams. Not the usual loud music. Awesome.

Has anybody else been reminded about Facebook's new login system about 10 times a day?

Spent a few days on something, then deleted it. Need to wear bulletproof shoes.
