Eleven steps for getting a new business online, from 14 years of WordPress work: nail the one-sentence pitch, give every offer its own page, then get hosting, backups and security right before chasing traffic.
A three-step way to point an agent at a broken WordPress site: let it read debug.log, make it write a hook-level plan before it edits anything, then iterate on what it ships.
Ollama 0.14 speaks the Anthropic Messages API, so Claude Code can run against a local model instead of a $200 plan. Here is the setup, the three environment variables it needs, and the git init step that trips people up.
Notes from the February 4 contributor meeting on the WordPress AI Client merge into 7.0: why OpenAI, Google and Anthropic are moving out to separate plugins, why the off switch is a constant rather than a filter, and what MCP adapters mean for the Abilities API.
Notes on the WordPress 7.0 AI integration roadmap: the WP AI Client merge proposal, the GatherPress demo built on the Abilities API, how the native client compares to the MCP adapter, and what has to land before the February 19 Beta 1 deadline.
WordPress.com now has an official Claude Connector built on MCP and OAuth 2.1. It gives Claude read-only access to site data like traffic, comments and content, with no custom REST bridge to maintain. Here is what it can do, how to switch it on, and where it stops.
Part 2 of the SageMaker vs Azure ML series, this time on compute. Azure keeps clusters as persistent workspace assets while SageMaker spins them up per job and tears them down after, plus spot instances, checkpointing and container control.
A Pandas iterrows() loop over 3.5 million flight records took about 170 seconds. py-spy is a sampling profiler that shows where the time went without slowing the script down, and the vectorized NumPy rewrite does the same work in 0.56 seconds.
loc selects by label, iloc by position, and their slicing rules disagree: loc includes the stop value, iloc excludes it. Here is when I use each one, plus the duplicate-index case where loc quietly breaks a model.
Separate repos for the React frontend and the WordPress backend are why payloads drift out of sync. Notes on moving to a monorepo with Roots Bedrock, keeping an AGENTS.md map of endpoints for coding agents, and the stale REST cache that broke a checkout.
