My @DrupalConAsia session on Code Review Best Practices is at: - 15:00 Tuesday (December 10) - in the Garden Ballroom events.drupal.org/singapore2024/… If it helps you to follow along, here are my slides: bit.ly/xjm-singapore-… I look forward to seeing you there!

A #Drupal core hotfix release is now available: drupal.org/project/drupal… This release fixes two critical regressions affecting 11.2.0. (Henceforth also known as "that time we are broke the Views UI with StringTranslationTrait.) 🐜

Heads up that Drupal 11.2.0-rc1 contained some incorrect changes that will not be included in Drupal 11.2.0. If you are testing the release, you should upgrade to drupal.org/project/drupal… instead. 🙂🚀

Another example of Singapore having excellent usability: forewarning, and a choice about which kind of bathroom stall to use. (Let’s just say that Japan’s typical toilets can be alarming as a Westerner.)

Google Lens, OTOH, is a miracle. I can muddle out Hiragana, Katakana, and basic Kanji like big, small, on, off, etc., but all the labels in my apartment were still complete mysteries that Google Lens decoded instantly. AI and machine learning both terrify and inspire me.

Well, Duolingo prepared me for how to say seven 七 and seven o'clock 七時 and seven people 七人 and July 七月 and seven hundred yen 七百円, but not how to operate a water faucet, nor how the shower is supposed to dry my clothes. 🇯🇵

I wrote a poem today. My brain does a something. It interferes with adulting. I don't know what to call it, but I sure could do without it!

In honor of Juneteenth (the US holiday commemorating the end of slavery in the US), the #Drupal release managers have decided to release Drupal 10.3.0 later in our week-long release window (probably on June 20, 2024). Thanks for your understanding and solidarity.

I've just tagged drupal.org/project/drupal…, a release candidate for the upcoming Drupal 10.3.0 feature release. Thank you to @tag1consulting for sponsoring my time on Patreon to help contribute to this milestone, just as they did for 10.2.0. Learn more: patreon.com/posts/drupal-1…
