I make parts of the internet, and tools to help others make parts of the internet too. Currently building Advanced Custom Fields for WordPress at @wpengine.com. Enjoyer of Counter-Strike esports.
Using Advanced Custom Fields (ACF) Blocks v3, but don't want previews to ever render in the admin?

You can bring back the blocks v2 experience of "supports: mode: false" and "mode: "edit"" using a custom callback.

The problem with Slow Horses is that I've never been able to watch an episode without ending up doing the whole season in one session.

It's really very good TV.

The AirPods Pro 3 are genuinely next level in terms of fit. I always used to think I must have really weird ears to never see people complaining just how much time you had to spent pressing them back in…

I don’t think I’ve touched the 3’s after I’ve put them in once yet.

I’ll be there! If anyone wants to chat about anything Advanced Custom Fields, look for me in the ACF hat!
Hello fellow WordPress devs! If your schedule permits, I would be honored if you joined me for @loopconf.com on Sept 25th!

I personally curated the schedule and couldn't be happier about the diversity of perspectives and experiences we get to hear.

In Austin again this week.

Today, I finally went to Interstellar BBQ after being told for the last 2 years I have to get out there, I figured it was gunna just be the same as standard downtown BBQ, but it really isn’t… it’s next level, and totally as good as everyone says.

I wasn’t expecting my coffee machine to also have the emergency alert test and siren, but at least I know I’ll be safe during the 5 minutes I’m stood there each morning.

I hope BlueSky can implement this feature soon: github.com/bluesky-soci...

It’s the one missing feature that really ruins the timeline at the moment.
Ability to hide reposts and quote posts per followed account · Issue #1116 · bluesky-social/social-app
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. I know that I can hide reposts and quote posts via my settings. But I'd like to be able to decide that for each account I'm following....

South Gloucestershire launched a new recycling collection system last week, and the best part is it has an API which contains hidden live status.

This means, I can now make my home assistant integration show the live status of each collection.

Some beautiful vortexes from the Shamrock tonight. And a train that doesn’t stop at Didcot so feels about 15m faster.

Picked a great day to travel from Heathrow. The tunnel closure meant no cars could get to the airport this morning, and everyone tried to use the trains… which led to platform overcrowding so they cancelled all the trains too…

I have literally never received a message over RCS that wasn't spam since I enabled it on iOS.

Managed to build a garden that, virtually every day this week, a new flower has appeared. Today’s turn is this spectacular Dahlia!

Waking up to new flowers blossoming is a pretty great benefit to having a garden.

Maybe it’ll wear off eventually, but Apple Music’s new automix feature delights virtually every time. Even when it’s super goofy, it’s just delightful.

Got to experience a Texas storm today. It’s wild how different it is to a storm in the UK.

From calm to intense strong winds in a flash, coupled with heavy rain and so much lightning, and then it’s all over again just as quick as it started.

Technology drove me to Starbucks. America is great.

A 6am wake up hopefully means I’ve dominated jet lag on day one. Hello, Austin!

I did a workout this morning with Workout Buddy and AI music mixing in iOS/WatchOS 26... it's just delightful.

I'm glad Apple focused on the small features that bring delight this year. #WWDC25

(Although, no more compact tabs in Desktop Safari is still unforgivable)

Is this the year we finally get iCloud Time Machine? #WWDC

I never realised how much I’d enjoy gardening before I bought a house. Now I just want to spend all my free time out here.

The hard late winter and early spring lawn maintenance has paid off.

@smarthound.uk Since I moved to a house with both Gas / Elec, the app regularly just falls stops loading data for one source. If I reinstall the app, it immediate repopulates on open.

Any debugging I can do to help you pinpoint why?

Very very excited. The folks who made Twitter so good for so many years are here to save the day.

My twitter subscription is about to expire, and obviously I’m not giving them any more money…

Is there any good Mac apps for Bluesky yet?
