Spent the Saturday afternoon exploring ways to add surrogate-key (also known as cache tags) support for Nginx fastcgi cache which is otherwise great with state-while-revalidate support, etc.

Considered creating an Nginx module but there don't appear to be any hookable events when the cache files are written. The idea would be too keep an index of tags mapped to cache files on disk and have a route for invalidating by tags.

ChatGPT wouldn't do it, Claude wouldn't do it.

Eventually tried Perplexity and it was able to generate notes with correct code snippets from my WordPress course videos. Amazing since it didn't have to invent anything -- just capture everything I said and include the relevant code snippets.

The trick was to create 1 FPS videos with full audio so that it still has access to full video contents and audio but with ~5% of the file size. Worked great.

WordPress block development with breakpoint debugging for JS is a life-changer! So is PHP breakpoints, to be honest.

Instead of hunting for the correct file in the browser console, you just add breakpoints in VS Code and it automatically stops the JS executation at that point to show you the full state.

When can we reasonably expect all macOS apps to use the correct squircle radius?

I can't believe VSCode and Google Chrome are still different from the Finder or any of the built-in apps...
