That's a bit of a sketchy generalisation IMO. TikTok is not operating in China, because they have a sister app called Douyin, which does operate there. I don't think TikTok has been banned per se.

Haha, nice to see someone else does this. I also move wp-config.php outside the public directory.

And if you really want to get nasty, configure it to use a network drive, so that slow downs from that show up more prominently. This is hard to tolerate all the time though!

"real website" ... I think Ghost users would disagree with that terminology lol

The answer was "endearing" :) I received a response back today. The new owner is very friendly and is happy for me to come visit!

You have some really useful looking features in there. I think it would be great if some package like that became a generic commonly used tool in the WordPress community. It would make some basic development stuff a lot easier to implement.

That looks quite useful. The queue system in particular is something I've been wondering about for a while, as I don't have a standard way to do that.

Are you still developing/using that package?

That was where I learned about it from.

It's nice to see you here on Bluesky BTW :)

I find myself usually doing a terrible custom job of it each time, because I don't have time to implement it properly. So hopefully this little class will make me do things more "correctly" in future. Hopefully today I'll have turned it into a composer package, time permitting.

Specifically, this is for stale cache handling of WordPress internal caching functions, transients etc. I'm not referring to page caching, or basic transient caching here.

When I saw this originally, I thought it was code comments on an internal WordPress file.

Any plans for non-WordPress PHP hosting? Or perhaps you already offer it? I didn't see it in my cursory glance around the site.

I've found asking them to think of a story, any story, as crazy as they want and in any language they want. Then I punch it into an LLM and show them the response. If they haven't seen it before, that usually blows their mind immediately. Doing the same thing for images can be good for a laugh too.

I just copy/paste. I figure any tool that might crop up, is going to be out of date a few weeks later with the rate of progress these days anyway.

I knew many people in the UK cared about this shit, but a day of seems a bit excessive lol.

I was two years old, so I don't think a day off for that would have interested me then.
