Not that anyone asked.
When it comes to the plugins on my blog I like to think I’m a bit of a minimalist.
My “professional” blog at joseph-dickson.com is running bare bones WordPress, on the occasion of a new version update I’ll run WP-Optimize to clean things up a bit then uninstall it. I’d keep it around if I had more things going on over there.
I get some grief from friends for using Jetpack but find many of it’s features worthwhile. Video CDN, automatic backups, comment spam filtering.
The concept of writing in the margins of a printed text has always perplexed me. Not that it’s defacing the tome. Rather that if I come across it again years later I’ll look at the notes and think.
“Well, that was silly of me to think that”

My new System76 Galago Pro arrived last Friday and I promised to use it for at least a month before typing up a review. So for now here’s a few photos and a list of what I’ve been up to with this new computer.
I just configued my Ubuntu installation for i3 window manager and figured why not draft and publish a post in WP-CLI while I’m playing around in the terminals. 🙂
I just happened to drop by Zac Gordon’s WordPress training website and noticed several of the courses are discounted for the Thanksgiving weekend.
JavaScript for WP is a course I’ve taken and it is a solid series for learning to use JavaScript in WordPress.

Or don’t, either way Zac’s courses are worth having a look. There’s also one on Gutenberg.
