Never written a line of Python? 🤔

No problem!

I just published a line-by-line tutorial that shows you how to build a Google Sheets URL checker - even if you're starting from zero.

It reads your links, checks for broken ones, and updates the sheet automatically.

After 20 years of duct-taping WordPress® together with PHP, I snapped.

So I built a free Python course - made with WordPress® devs who are done making excuses for bad code.

15 lessons to teach you practical Python development.

Clean code starts here:

I gave 20 years to WordPress®.

Hundreds of plugins. Countless hours. I fought for the community harder than its own "leaders".

And how did they respond?

Silence, side eyes, and shunning.

Today, I walk away for good.

Goodbye WordPress: A Eulogy

For anyone in the #WordPress community wondering:

This tweet got @ma.tt to unblock me on X - days before he unblocked all of you 👀

Funny enough, I wrote him a message about 20 minutes before he went and posted about unblocking people.

A tweet about Kevin Geary, FWIW.
