A couple great WordPress podcasts — WP Dev Table and WPwatercooler — have been nice enough to have me on as a guest recently. Instead of having you dig around each site to find the episodes, I’ll just go ahead and leave them here…
As you can see, I’m a pretty insightful guy. Humble too.

In a flash of epicurean genius, Sarah decided to whip up a batch of David Chang‘s Cacio e Pepe Ramen for dinner last night. And while it’s not something I’d eat all the time — it was actually super rich — I wouldn’t be against downing another bowl of it at some point in the (nearish) future.
While I never bought into the Flappy Bird hype, I totally get the appeal of infuriatingly brief casual games. So I decided to try out PAKO after finding it over the weekend.
The TL;DW (too long; didn’t watch) of the video above is this:
Even though I haven’t had a single round that’s lasted longer than 35 seconds, it manages to be loads of fun without being throw-your-phone frustrating. If you’ve got a couple bucks burning a hole in your pocket — it’s only $0.99 on iOS, but slightly more expensive on other platforms — it’s definitely worth it.
Practically every spare moment I’ve had over the last few days has been filled with very short rounds of Super Hexagon for iOS. It can be sort of hard at first — at least until you get the hang of the controls — but it’s also insanely addictive.
If you value your free time, stay away at all costs. But if you prefer to lose hours cursing under your breath every few seconds, check it out!
I hadn’t realized that Stanley Kubrick was so fond of one-point perspective shots, but after watching this compilation, I totally get why.
I am totally in love with Anders Ramsell’s watercolor version of Blade Runner. It’s extremely beautiful. I just hope that he can finish the whole movie. [via]
The folks over at WordPress.tv have posted my section of the day long class I helped teach on WordPress performance & security during WordCamp Phoenix 2012. The audio is a little muffled and the video is 10 minutes longer than the theatrical release of The Avengers — and nowhere near as entertaining — but I tried to pack it as full of as much information as possible. Enjoy!
This one’s for the locals. And the people who don’t live here but still like to laugh at the locals. [via]
There was talk that LCD Soundsystem was eventually going to release the footage from their three and a half hour long final show on DVD. And while I was pulling for that (and a decently mastered audio version) I’m almost more excited that it’s getting the documentary treatment with Shut Up and Play the Hits.
