Scripting News: Friday, May 8, 2026

Lots of WordPress news showing up on wp.feedland.org as the core team gets version 7.0 out. And it's showing up as news on the site, and that's great. Let's make sure that by the time 8.0 comes around there will be lots of developers saying how it makes their editors or social web systems work soooo much better, better than anything else. #
Said to Claude: "Here's something to add to the list of things for you to do -- just post a checkmark to acknowledge. 'I'll wait' makes me feel bad because I know you're a piece of software, and as a developer of systems I know how you'll wait very well (Iearned how it works in the mid-late 70s). So just show a checkmark and we're cool." It responded with a checkmark. I said it could be bold. I felt a little bad because I had insulted the little fella. #
