Why Automattic CEO Matt Mullenweg went to war over WordPress

theverge.com Nilay Patel 2026-02-20 22:00:00

Today, I’m talking with Matt Mullenweg, the founder and CEO of Automattic, the parent company of WordPress.com, Tumblr, and a whole host of other products like the new cross-platform messaging service Beeper. This is Matt’s third time on Decoder; back in 2022, we had him on twice, first to talk about Automattic and WordPress broadly and then to talk about Tumblr and the future of social networking. He’s back now because Automattic just turned 20, and I really wanted to talk about how the next 2

Does Form Shape Function?

news.ycombinator.com Janna Levin 2026-02-18 04:51:22

What links a Möbius strip, brain folds and termite mounds? The answer is Harvard University’s L. Mahadevan, whose career has been devoted to using mathematics and physics to explore the form and function of common phenomena. Mahadevan, or Maha to his friends and colleagues, has long been fascinated by questions one wouldn’t normally ask — from the equilibrium shape of inert objects like a Möbius strip, to the complex factors that drive biological systems like morphogenesis or social insect colo

Continuous Glucose Monitoring

news.ycombinator.com Adam Langley 2026-02-21 14:09:30

Continuous glucose monitoring has been a thing for a while. It's a probe that sits just inside your body and measures blood glucose levels frequently. Obviously this is most useful for type 1 diabetics, who need to regulate their blood glucose manually. (At this point, I would be amiss not to give a nod to the book Systems Medicine, which I think most readers would find fascinating. I can't judge whether it's correct or not, but it is a delightful exploration of a bunch of maladies from the per

What just happened? The number of countries where more than half of internet connections use the IPv6 protocol has surged from 13 to 21 over the past year. This rapid progress, tracked by measurements from organizations such as Akamai, APNIC, Facebook, and Google, highlights both evolution and the growing influence of new connectivity providers, most notably Starlink.

The Perils of 'Design Thinking'

news.ycombinator.com Celine Nguyen 2026-02-18 12:27:11

On the first day of a required class for freshman design majors at Carnegie Mellon, my professor stood in front of a lecture hall of earnest, nervous undergraduates and asked, “Who here thinks that design can change the world?” Several hands shot up, including mine. After a few seconds of silence, he advanced to the next slide of his presentation: a poster by the designer Frank Chimero that read, Design won’t save the world.

The Best Printers for Home and Office: Brother, HP, and More

wired.com Brad Bourque 2026-02-21 12:33:00

Before anything else, you'll have to decide between ink and laser. I'll get into the details when it comes to each model, but the most important consideration is paper type, because it’s a limitation rather than a benefit. Laser printers use heat in the bonding process, which means if you regularly print on windowed envelopes or photo paper, you'll need to either use an ink printer or change to a thermally-safe alternative, which can be cost prohibitive if you print a lot. Inkjets are the most

'Sticky thinking' hampers decisions in depression

Though low mood is the best-known symptom of depression, indecisiveness and biased thinking are also common. But these problems, which can lead to delays in making important choices — and being more likely to make poor ones — receive less attention, write the authors of a recent paper in Emotion.
