Implementing namespaces and coding standards in WordPress plugin development

news.ycombinator.com Troy Chaplin 2025-09-22 21:56:32

As WordPress projects grow in complexity, organizing your codebase becomes essential. Whether you’re building a plugin, theme, or block library, a clean and scalable architecture makes development faster, onboarding easier, and long-term maintenance far less painful. In Refactoring the Multi-Block Plugin: Build Smarter, Register Cleaner, Scale Easier, I walked through setting up a flexible structure for managing multiple static, dynamic, and interactive blocks within a single plugin.

wired.com Louryn Strampe 2025-09-25 01:39:00

Indoor plant care is always tricky. While it's all fine and dandy to take care of them when the summer sun is shining, keeping your plants alive in winter can feel like a whole ’nother story. Being a houseplant enthusiast is akin to having several silent children, all with finicky needs and limited ways of communicating them. If your green thumb is feeling a little yellow or brown these days, fear not! I interviewed several experts to figure out exactly how to keep your plants happy during the c

The PC was never a true 'IBMer'

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-09-25 05:13:39

The IBM Personal Computer was launched on 12 August 1981. Designed by an IBM team in Boca Raton, Florida led by Philip Don Estridge and William C. Lowe. That first PC, given the less than charismatic designation as the ‘Model 5150’, and its successors quickly set the standard for personal computing, first in business and then in homes. So much so that they became known as just ‘PCs’. But the PC was never an true ‘IBMer’, the colloquial term used for IBM employees. Wait a moment! The IBM PC. D

After the Virtual Boy, There’s No Reason Why Nintendo Can’t Bring Back Its Best Handheld

gizmodo.com Kyle Barr 2025-09-25 08:00:08

Nintendo doesn’t normally let fans in on its hardware plans, but if you’re the type of person to spot trends, it’s clear the Switch 2 will become the Mario maker’s everything console. Nintendo has started offering more hardware specifically tailored for playing its old, defunct consoles. The inevitable next step is for the company to let us return to its most popular handheld ever, the Nintendo DS.

EFF to court: The Supreme Court must rein in secondary copyright liability

If the Supreme Court doesn’t reverse a lower court’s ruling, internet service providers (ISPs) could be forced to terminate people’s internet access based on nothing more than mere accusations of copyright infringement. This would threaten innocent users who rely on broadband for essential aspects of daily life.

The conservative broadcaster/provocateur Charlie Kirk—murdered this week during a visit to a Utah college—had tweeted some life advice this summer: "When things are moving very fast and people are losing their minds, it’s important to stay grounded.
