@photomatt That’s why the gods invented elastic, so that your clothes grow with you 🙂 … http://ift.tt/1nc37Ql

@Rarst The plugin will make requests, but I never looked at how. I just saw it didn’t work, and someone else discovered the OpenSSL issue. … http://ift.tt/1ksUWLN

@marinusklasen I need to setup an unrelated server on Ubuntu 14.04. So I’ll do that and test the plugin on there (it comes with 1.0.1f). … http://ift.tt/1iLsNxU

@Rarst You mean the HTTP API baked into WordPress? Yes I have. is this in relation to the OpenSSL problem I mentioned? … http://ift.tt/1iLsNhw

@marinusklasen Yeah, I’m on 1.0.1e. I’d upgrade, but slightly timid about breaking something. … http://ift.tt/1iLsQcZ

@marinusklasen This one … https://t.co/hCayV8f1R8 … http://ift.tt/1iLsPFY

I wondered why a WordPress plugin wasn’t working, then found out it only works with specific versions of OpenSSL!? … http://ift.tt/1iLjKgu

@johnbillion That’s quite impressive for what is quite a niche plugin. … http://ift.tt/1nPopWB

Pro tip: Don’t test stuff on your live website 😛 On the plus side, I now know I can do a complete restore from backup in less than 22 mins. … http://ift.tt/1iKeYj9

@theunfocused @five15design I’d say it is 100% the same in fact. The same copyright laws apply in both cases. … http://ift.tt/1kAg2KS

@kimparsell @trepmal Do you know of any personal web portals other than the obviously excellent one here? http://t.co/i59F5F0GBT … http://ift.tt/1rJVHUE

@kimparsell @trepmal Thanks 🙂 … http://ift.tt/1iI2Or8

@kimparsell @trepmal Is it okay if I cross-post your tweets on my blog post? I’m trying to stash all the commentary in one place. … http://ift.tt/1iI2Lvt

@trepmal @kimparsell This could work. I hadn’t really considered this as an option in the past. … http://ift.tt/1iI2LeX

@kimparsell @trepmal Could still work, but it’d be a portal of two blogs with recent posts perhaps, plus some links to inactive/boring blogs … http://ift.tt/SezwvB

@kimparsell @trepmal I only have two active blogs. Another is just for less interesting junk and the rest are archives, or not in English. … http://ift.tt/Sezvrf

@trepmal Thanks:) What would you put at the root of the http://t.co/HyzUJRNAmg domain? … http://ift.tt/1iHZLiw

@trepmal Thanks. How would you factor in my sub-domains, like http://t.co/q6D1UEYUx7? … http://ift.tt/1iHZI6A

Looking for opinions. Should I use http://t.co/UaEGQxRySf or http://t.co/HyzUJRNAmg for my blog? What about email? http://t.co/6pDEzCg9yh … http://ift.tt/1pToQ3Z

Wow! I sent in a security report and the developer actually fixed the problem! And not only that, they did it overnight! OMG! … http://ift.tt/1lDPERz

@chip_bennett gMail got really borked when I sent you that code recently. Hopefully it doesn’t break anything on your end too. … http://ift.tt/R4qG27

Pro-tip: Don’t send XSS attack code via gMail. It doesn’t like it very much 😛 … http://ift.tt/1pPPBGr

@Ipstenu @nacin Not that @chip_bennett is a small-fry, just that I don’t want to clutter up the main security channel with minor stuff 😉 … http://ift.tt/1nJqnaL

@Ipstenu @nacin @chip_bennett Nah, this is kinda minor. Unless someone objects, I’m just going to send it to Chip. This is small fry stuff. … http://ift.tt/1rGxKxm

@nacin @chip_bennett @ipstenu I’m not sure it’s important enough to send to security@wordpress.org, but I can do that if you like. … http://ift.tt/1nJqlzG

@chip_bennett @Ipstenu Thanks 🙂 … http://ift.tt/R0Y0Yh

@Ipstenu @chip_bennett Any ideas where I send a security report for a theme hosted at http://t.co/H1BgF9w84C? … http://ift.tt/R0Y0Y4

Thanks to the folks at #ots_bln for a pleasant evening. I managed to learn a few new JavaScript things 🙂 … http://ift.tt/1iEb2kb

@Rarst I don’t use my phone much either, but I’d use it even less if I had a (good) smartwatch. … http://ift.tt/1pKsUn3

@trepmal @Rarst Presumably a smartwatch should be able to do all of the fitness related stuff too. … http://ift.tt/QYYspE

@trepmal @Rarst So I’m guess you won’t be lining up for a Google Smartwatch or iWatch? … http://ift.tt/1pKsOvO

RT @rob_neu: Want to use the new HTML5 video embed feature in WordPress 3.9? Here’s how: http://t.co/wgVLsC2Hzs via @WPBacon … http://ift.tt/1ixqoXB

@rob_neu @WPBacon @mattmedeiros Dang, I had no idea that was even possible. That works super well. Thanks for pointing it out! … http://ift.tt/1ixqnD3

@bjornjohansen I don’t see an ethical dilemma there. … http://ift.tt/1hM31xO

Thumbs up to whoever came up with the name “Hamburger menu”. I giggle every time I write it. … http://ift.tt/1mUWpy1

@clarecurranmp Many large organisations are paying Microsoft to continue XP patches. Perhaps the NZ police are doing that? … http://ift.tt/1folRMM

@blrandel Another bonus … since they’re already using Linux, you shouldn’t have any compatibility issues with it. … http://ift.tt/1mSf0L2

@blrandel Install of other OS’s is a little abnormal though, as you need to keep the Chrome OS kernel in place. … http://ift.tt/1mSf0La

@blrandel I just thought of a catch … I don’t think they sell them in NZ, so you’d need to import it I think :/ … http://ift.tt/1mSf0uD

@blrandel ARM processor, power cable is just micro USB, no fan, full size keyboard etc. Only catch is the 16 GB SSD. … http://ift.tt/1rxOUNJ

@blrandel I’d love one of those myself, but the 16 GB SSD just isn’t enough. I need about 64 GB. … http://ift.tt/1rxOS8A

@blrandel If you don’t need much disk space, then running a different Linux distro on this would work well … https://t.co/vUSAmXGejR … http://ift.tt/1j9zezg

@Rarst I keep thinking I’m better, then it turns out I’m not :/ The long winded explanation is here … https://t.co/5zbwuF0bRn … http://ift.tt/1rxORRX

Just cancelled my trip to WordCamp Switzerland. I’ve been sick for ages, and my tonsils have flared up again :/ … http://ift.tt/1rxOUx8

@omrisancho Oh, hang on. Just realised you use that in other places online. I thought it was just something you used randomly on Twitter. … http://ift.tt/1pH4NWk

@omrisancho Remember my theme name question? What about “Snake Byte”? … http://ift.tt/1nWn5hD

That moment your boss points out that the thing you built, does the exact opposite of what they asked you to build :/ … http://ift.tt/1pH4Npv

@markoheijnen @johnbillion @humanmadeltd Perhaps a plugin that does TIFF, SVG and BMP files would be a good idea? … http://ift.tt/1irPW8x

@johnbillion I assumed ImageMagick could always convert SVG’s to PNG. … http://ift.tt/1hFpoAs

@johnbillion @cftp Updated post with links to your site and plugin … http://t.co/ugLdjDjZJl … http://ift.tt/1j46Sqf

@johnbillion @cftp Ah, thanks! That looks more useful than my class. I’ll update my post with a link to your plugin. … http://ift.tt/1lX2vMV

@johnpbloch @cindy I’m relying on Google for helping people find my key … https://t.co/wbpGXOA7Z7 (not that anyone will think to do that) … http://ift.tt/QM9b6X

@cindy That keybase site looks interesting. I just put my key on my website instead … http://t.co/bH2wgQw3Oc … http://ift.tt/1lX2ybA

@Rarst I updated it 🙂 I do a similar thing by referring to Microsoft WordPress sometimes :/ … http://ift.tt/1lX2yby

@markjaquith @DeFries What are “tone police”? … http://ift.tt/1lX2xV7

@Rarst Damn. Thanks! … http://ift.tt/RYxxLC

@konstruktors poop … http://ift.tt/1ipQHic

@konstruktors Using that box seems much more sensible to me though. It’s a more elegant way to handle crap tons of posts/pages. … http://ift.tt/1ipQE64

@konstruktors I’ve needed this before, but just resorted to dumping out a complete select box, or requiring an ID or slug. … http://ift.tt/RX63WE

@konstruktors It also says “Add to menu”, although I guess I can dynamically change that if needed. … http://ift.tt/1ipOpzK

@konstruktors Search page would be sufficient. I was attempting it with the whole thing though. … http://ift.tt/1fgUm7M

@konstruktors There’s some JS behind the scenes I need to unravel. Was hoping someone else may have done it before. … http://ift.tt/1fgUm7C

@konstruktors Yep, found that, but not sure how to actually use it elsewhere. … http://ift.tt/1ipOp2P

Do any of you WordPress nerds know how to to utilize this search tool in other parts of the admin panel? http://t.co/ex7MQAgd5X … http://ift.tt/1mLRZJM

@cosmicaudino Stow away on a ship 🙂 (I didn’t do that, I used a plane, but I’m sure stowing away would work too 🙂 ) … http://ift.tt/QINogm

@cosmicaudino Haha. Well I have a free couch with your name on it for when you arrive. … http://ift.tt/QINogs

@cosmicaudino You should come join us in Berlin 🙂 We have beautiful weather at the moment, but still cool enough to walk outside in 🙂 … http://ift.tt/QINnZW

@cosmicaudino Do it then! I did 🙂 … http://ift.tt/QINlBl

@cosmicaudino I heard strange stories about there being no public transport and no footpaths over there too. … http://ift.tt/1h1bvxd

@scottbasgaard Heidelberg is an awesome place. It’s the most pleasant part of Germany I’ve been to yet. … http://ift.tt/1pwYF2Q

@scottbasgaard I think the locals were acclimatised, but my Kiwi skin couldn’t handle it. I’d buy a humidifier if I moved back. … http://ift.tt/1pwYDbb

@scottbasgaard I started to dry up like a prune. Constant nose bleeds, bleeding knuckles, skin flaking off etc. … http://ift.tt/1iks6LM

@scottbasgaard I had huge problems with humidity when I lived in Calgary, but not because it was high, but because it was too low! … http://ift.tt/1iks7zs

@scottbasgaard I assume it’s fairly similar humidity to Norway, ie: okay. … http://ift.tt/1iks6LJ

@scottbasgaard Berlin is much better in Spring/Autumn though. Summer drags on a bit longer here it seems 🙂 … http://ift.tt/1igDHk3

@scottbasgaard I suspect Berlin may be too hot for me in summer. Guess I’ll find out soon. … http://ift.tt/1gWGwSN

@scottbasgaard I had for the past few weeks. It sucks. Hope you get better soon! … http://ift.tt/1tJIcYU

@Rarst @davecoveney You can handle the backups in single fire though. Live commenting comes in disastrous server crashing batches. … http://ift.tt/ROgH1Y

@Rarst @davecoveney *what*? Er, the comments. You just have to sync them back. I think I misunderstood your question though :/ … http://ift.tt/1iQiInE

@Rarst @davecoveney I used my laptop to backup Disqus once. The server borked when I tried to sync the 15,000 comments on a single post. … http://ift.tt/1jFVTzV

@Rarst @davecoveney This is the beauty of a self-hosted setup, as you could easily handle backups yourself. … http://ift.tt/1jFVTjo

@Rarst @davecoveney With difficulty 😛 You could setup another site to sync with perhaps. … http://ift.tt/1jFVQ77
