✅Good news! Software engineering jobs are on the rise... but is it enough?

@andrewhoyer Wow, what's taking so long? Or is this normal? I've been toying with the idea of making a WordPress plugin, but maybe not if it's backed up real bad haha

@MPorterBridges Correct. These are just the ones that are waiting for their first review. If you look at other reported data, it shows that there are about 3000 plugins that have had a first review and are waiting for developer follow-up to resolve issues before being published.

The number of WordPress plugins waiting for a review reached another record in my data set this week, hitting a high of 936.

@bentruyman @wesbos Seriously though lol

@MPorterBridges @wesbos I was just gonna say WTF does the “U” even mean at this point

Sick of not knowing which usb cables support the different speeds and features. Some new tools to help!

@coreyward @wesbos I do love a good cookie banner though (this is a joke lol)

@MPorterBridges @wesbos Used to be able to look at the end of a cable and get an idea of what it did. By mandating USB-C as the end connector, the European Commission just set UX back, as they always do. Cookie banners, default browser pickers, confusing cables, etc.

@denicmarko @natmiletic FR tho

@MPorterBridges @natmiletic Nat is the SEO MVP.

Were websites and SEO killed by AI? I asked agency owner @natmiletic exactly that 👇

@natmiletic Was a pleasure!

@MPorterBridges Thanks for having me Matt 🙏

@DMC_Ryan Back in the day I knew I was playing a quality PC shooter when they were one of the splash screens. Sad stuff today.

Damn, Red Storm shutting down really hurts. That studio gave me a LOT of awesome memories over the years, going all the way back to the original Ghost Recon – which remains arguably my favorite Xbox Live game from the early days of the service. ign.com/articles/ubiso…

This is the weirdest bug I've seen in consumer software to-date. And it's inside Microsoft Edge. Every now and then I'll have a couple windows open and will need to move a tab between them. Sometimes when I do that, Edge hiccups for a few seconds and then a random audio clip starts to play. It sounds like it's a video game guide from YouTube or something. Sometimes I will have YouTube playing on a random tab so I'll close that and it keeps playing. I'll try and pause the audio using the media controls on my keyboard to no avail. The only way to stop it is to let it play out, which takes about 30 seconds or so, and it's always the same snippet of audio. If I need it to stop right away I can use the Task Manager and close Edge out completely. I don't have a lot of tabs open (usually 5 or below), and it's been happening for weeks now. Anyone else have this bug, or something similarly weird in consumer software?

Anyone else remember the Red Storm logo popping up on PC games back in the day? Sad state of affairs for @Ubisoft and @RedStorm

@MaryWebflow @webflow Thank you!

@MPorterBridges @webflow This should be fixed now - let us know if you run into anymore issues. Thanks again for your patience 💙

Hey @webflow the editor appears to be down across the board right now. Seeing posts here on X, my own account isn't working, and a client's account isn't working either.

@csaba_kissi Vibe coders won't get this post 😂

Coding with AI != vibe coding

@kvncnls @claudeai This is the exact thing I thought nobody would do for themselves 😂 Always thought that people would just find a tracker already in the app/play store.

My dad vibe coded an Android app with @claudeai to keep track of the medications he’s taking. He has a lot of meds to track, so this has been a recurring problem. He just needs a little help with design haha

@sean_rainey @webflow Just tested it out and it's working for me! Thanks for following up - appreciate it

@MPorterBridges @webflow
