@AKiwiInGermany Yeah. I remember experiencing the same thing in Canada too. Unfortunately it doesn't last long.

Any ideas why WordPress has wp_get_recent_posts()? Seems to duplicate get_posts(), but with an array instead of objects.

@bjornjohansen Capital P dangit clearly isn't in action on WordPress itself I guess.

Hmmm, one of the WordPress core developers misspelled "Wordpress" on his http://WordPress.org profile page.

@trepmal I want to go to Iceland too! They hurry up and do WordCamp Iceland 🙂

@trepmal That sounds like a bug in your code to me then. I use Core Control for debugging this sort of stuff .. http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/core-control/

@trepmal Things like Batcache get around these sorts of issues since their out of the box setup resets the cache fairly regularly.

@trepmal Does the site have any sort of intense caching? Perhaps WP Super Cache or W3TC?

@trepmal I'd guess most failed WP Crons are due to caching. You can get around that by occasionally pinging the server via regular cron.

@trepmal Or at least I've never noticed any problems. I have multiple things relying on WP Cron and have never seen them fail on multisite.

@trepmal WP Cron works flawlessly on multisite. No problems at all.

@ipstenu @zamoose When Americans say "ball" it sounds more like "bahl" to me.

@zamoose Google tells me that Kiwi English rarely (if ever) uses "balk" which would explain why it looks totally wrong to me.

@zamoose Sounds like a different word. I pronounce "baulk" as "bawk"/ "bork". It has a silent L.

@zamoose How do you pronounce "balk"?

@zamoose I have never heard of "balk" before. I speak Kiwi English.

@ngaireackerley That's my understanding. It would be pretty much impossible for them to enforce otherwise.

@simonwheatley I will never be updating that plugin again, but it's not going to stop working any time soon.

@simonwheatley This for examples hasn't been updated, but it doesn't claim it isn't compatible with latest version … http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/ryans-suckerfish-wordpress-dropdown-menu/

@simonwheatley Then you only need to update once every two years and it'll always claim to be compatible with latest version 🙂

@simonwheatley Don't do that! Remove the "compatible" entirely. That way it won't indicate that it hasn't been tested with newer versions.

@ngaireackerley I assume that is a reference to developers building custom Twitter applications, not websites dumping out lists of tweets.

@simonwheatley Done

@simonwheatley Email Alerts.

@simonwheatley You even cast your booleans as boolean 🙂 Others used raw $_GET straight into an SQL query and assumed they would be boolean!

I security audited four plugins today. Three were disastrous. One was excellent. Thanks to @simonwheatley for making the excellent one 🙂

@andmiddleton Don't worry. @kovshenin is kindly helping out 🙂

@DeFries Thanks 🙂 @andmiddleton, any chance you can help? Or perhaps @kovshenin?

Does anyone have a copy of the WordCamp themethey could send me? I need to work on a WordCamp site, but don't want to edit it live. Thx 🙂

Dear Facebook. Please stop recommending dead people be my friend. Thanks.

@konstruktors Yep, I went there a couple of times last year. I'm looking for natural ice to skate on though. Much more fun that way.

I went for casual run to see if I could find some ice to skate on. 19 km later and it seems there is not enough ice to skate on yet.

@pickering_teach There's probably somewhere in Twitter to disable any apps you have authorised. Probably a good idea to change password too.

@pickering_teach I received one of those. I'm guessing you clicked on something bad.
