@nathan here's something to consider, think about the old days whenever you mailed off your film cartridge to a processing place they fired up their electricity to print everything and then ship back the photos to you through the mail using gas. So maybe this way is better who knows?

@seth yeah that was a real eye-opener! I'll never recommend any client using that anymore.

One of my clients was using #MonsterInsights for their #analytics. I was deactivating #plugins to see which had a negative impact on performance. Most of them didn't do much but when I deactivated Monster Insights I gained 300ms back from total blocking time.

This took me from an 82 to a 98 for mobile performance in #PageSpeedInsights. To make sure, I activated & deactivated 4 times and each time it was the same result!

@boogah that's some cool stuff! Man they were really influenced by the #blues. I mean pulling out the #SonHouse come on!

@alexstandiford #imageCdn services like cloudinary will handle and serve up images and videos for your website. They'll serve up the right size according to the user's browser. I'm pretty sure they offer a free tier if you don't use too much bandwidth.

@rodney I have my backup plugins to run automatically too so there's always a backup to restore. Plus I've never had a plug-in update break a site yet.

@rodney I have all my plugins set up to auto update but I try to go in and check on things manually at least once a week.

@nathan it's kind of like the news isn't it? When a new tragedy happens the old tragedy is forgotten even though it's still going on!

I have never gotten so burnt out on a technology term as I am right now with #ai. Every stinking service or app I use is sending me emails talking about how they've integrated AI. Literally my mind shuts off when I see the term right now!

@nathan every #technology will attract a segment of society that will always use it for #greed and evil!
