    A meeting about HTTPS on Making WordPress

    Wednesday I attended to my first meeting in Making WordPress Slack channel. It was about HTTPS and there are two goals.

  • A year in WordCamps

    A year in WordCamps

    So, it’s the end of the year once again, and we’re all making our year’s balance. For me, 2015 is the year I turned from an anonymous WordPress developer to an (equally) anonymous WordPress community member.

  • Un Napoletano in Sicilia – un mese dopo

    Eccoci qui dopo un mese. Seguendo le linee guida della Piramide Inversa (grazie Carlo) inizio dalla notizia più importante in modo che, se sei di fretta, non ti perda il succo del post. Mi sono trasferito un mese fa in Sicilia. Sto bene, non mi manca nulla, non sono dimagrito (anzi) e non lavoro troppo. […]

  • Cosa ho imparato nelle ultime settimane?

    Che cosa ho imparato nelle ultime settimane? Che gli altri non possono conoscere le tue intenzioni, se non le espliciti. “È così, ma in realtà pensavo di…” non esiste. Esiste solo quello che è evidente e alla luce del sole. Che non importa quanto studi e quanto sai: la realtà è spesso (più spesso di […]
