I'm honored @digiglean.bsky.social invited me and @thibaudcolas.bsky.social on his podcast. I was honestly worried our #AI conversation would be wildly out of date by the time the episode went live. But it's still relevant, especially for anyone in #OpenSource. Let me know what you think of it!

My DjangoConUS photos aren't as amazing as Bartek's. But his lightning talk inspired me to share them anyway. Enjoy! wagtail.org/blog/our-dja...

What AI experts are talking about IRL is a bit different than all the online noise. Makes me glad we designed the Wagtail AI package the way we did. Here are the trends I observed: wagtail.org/blog/what-i-...

The DjangoCon US CFP closes on my birthday! 🎂 Maybe I'll wear this party crown when I submit my proposal. You should submit one too! It's not cash or flowers, but it's still an acceptable birthday gift in my book. 🎁 Get those presents (ahem, proposals) submitted here: pretalx.com/djangocon-us...

I voted early in the NC primaries. If you also live in NC, please go vote! Due to gerrymandering, the primary might be your only chance to make a real choice! If you don't live in NC, you can go vote for @wagtail.org in the CMS Critic Awards. Anyone can vote! Vote here: cmscritic.com/vote

I'm not impressed by leaders who do fancy financial magic to get the military paid but refuse to do the same for millions of poor Americans and children who have no other options. If you're equally unimpressed, join me in donating money to your local food bank today. This is mine: foodbankcenc.org

This is the face of a happy (and tired) conference organizer celebrating a well-run event. 😂 We had an incredible #WagtailSpace! With over 450 people attending live from over 20 countries around the world, I am SO PROUD that we brought together so many amazing people for our 3-day journey.

It's a bird! It's a spaceship! NO, it's a bird IN a spaceship! 😆 Y'all, I'm legit proud of the programming we put together for Wagtail Space 2025. In a world full of scary headlines and enshittifying tech, I feel truly happy to be lifting up stories of people using our software to help others.

One of the most common questions I get has nothing to do with Wagtail. The most common question I get is, "How do you do that space thing in Zoom?" In honor of Wagtail Space, I made a video showing you how to do that. I hope it brings you as much joy as it has brought me. youtu.be/ErI63cRTnXU

I gave some #AI tools this time around when I was working on a Wagtail CMS project. TLDR: They were a net positive, but they didn't always get things right for Wagtail. I wrote up a couple things you should watch out for if you're #vibecoding with these tools. wagtail.org/blog/what-ai...
