Another fine example of clean, focused minimalist design at michaelsoriano.com. Great content too.

Recently completed Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Now playing through again on Master Mode, having a blast.
Code comments
If you need comments to explain your code, you are doing it wrong.
Life outside of Facebook
There is so much life and fresh air outside of Facebook. Really have been enjoying spending more time in other spaces.
Opening comments
Closed threads are no fun. So I’m opening up comments again on select posts. My tutorial on trapping bad bots for example.
Chrome color picker
I should’ve known. Chrome has a color picker built into the Inspector tool.

In the process of switching from years of Photoshop use over to Affinity Photo. Will be posting on the experience soon.

Thoughts
First snow of the year :)
Sincerely trying to engage more on social media. I love the people not the platforms.
All free and pro WordPress plugins updated and ready for WP version 6.4!
Fall season almost here :)
My greatest skill on social media is the ability to simply ignore 98% and keep scrolling without interacting.
Enjoying this summer, getting some great positive energy. Refreshing and inspiring.
