In the next episode of my "Life and Automattic" series, I talk about something close to my heart, our professional coaching benefit.
loading . . .
Life at Automattic: I will never stop learning.
One of the things that I discovered when I joined Automatic is that we have this amazing professional development benefit, and this covers a wide variety of things. There are courses and learn ups you can take within the company, you can expense books and learning courses. But the one thing that really, really worked or impacted, or benefited, or has benefited me over the last few years is our coaching benefit.

WordCamp US 2025Â Recap
This year, I was fortunate enough to attend WordCamp US in Portland, Oregon. It was both my first time at a US WordCamp and a US flagship event. Monday: Arrival I arrived in Portland after approximately 23 hours of travel at around 10:30 in the morning and was met by a fellow Automattician, Ojoma Emina, at baggage claim (the power of the WordPress-branded laptop bag!).

How I use Perplexity to create technical written content
In case you missed it, AI search company Perplexity was recently called out by Cloudflare. This post isn't going to go into the details of that conversation, but you can read about it on Techcrunch, read Cloudflare's post and read Perplexity's reply. I've openly admitted in my live streams that I prefer to use Perplexity over ChatGPT for research and to assist my writing, so the conversation around it's methods is interesting to me.

Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?
In Terry Pratchett's Discworld novel Thud, one of the characters asks the protagonist, Commander of the City Watch, Sir Samuel Vimes, "Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?" This roughly translates as "Who watches the watchmen?" Sir Samuel's answer is simple yet profound: "We all keep an eye on each other." In this age of AI assisted software development, the most important elements — proper planning, testing, and security — are even more critical to success.
