Kept myself busy on the long weekend and built a security plugin for Wordpress that auto updates a Cloudflare firewall with known malicious IPs imported from AbuseIPDB. Working great so far. Hope to release it to the world soon.

Everyone I know hates AI and yet my job requires me to be fluent in it as much as possible so I have to learn it all and practice building solutions with it.
