david wolfpaw • 21 Aug 2024 • Reading time: 5 minsThis past week I went to Minneapolis for WordCamp Minneapolis, where I gave a talk on Crafting Custom Blocks. I put my slides and resources online, but I realize that it’s not the easiest way to get the info. I will try to write up a blog post soon. I need to just get back to blogging in general.
Anyway, it was a packed room! The whole event was packed, and the talks that I attended were interesting and useful. I am glad to have been able to make it!
This week I’ve been printing and cutting a lot of stickers for my shop and for Megaplex. It’s next weekend, and this weekend we have some folks coming from out of town to stay with us and visit. So I’m just rushing to get more done in advance.
I may skip a week or two of the newsletter while we’re busy, but I’ll definitely take some pictures and video while at the con. Honestly part of me is just looking forward to the projects that I want to work on after the con has passed.
Everyone enjoy the rest of your week! 🐶

This is the kind of math and coding write up that I enjoy
An argument that I’m always sure to make when it comes to people complaining about framerates on their hi-def consoles not matching the exact expectations that they have. Make the games fun!
And this is the type of fun art project that I enjoy!
I’m in a polycule, and it takes a lot of work to keep it going safely and kindly for everyone involved. Communication is hard, but it is imperative in any relationship.

We have people constantly trying to sell us things for our home, and I at least have a built in excuse that I’m not buying anything until I know how it’ll impact my homeowners insurance. Which is abysmal now.
More than I ever thought I’d learn about color as viewed on screens.
Part of a great series on federation and WordPress
Swell learning about furry hackers 
“What comes first, becoming a hacker or becoming a furry?”

We’re everywhere, not just in tech!
New GOJII is always hype. I’m so proud of their growth lately!
I’m thankful that Matt is looking more deeply into things like KOSA which come off sounding like reasonable legislation, in order to hide the great harm that they can cause by design.
If you made it this far, why not share this newsletter with a friend? Or share with me some of the things that you found that you liked this week. Either way, I’m thrilled!
