Every so often I need to write an update hook for a Drupal module, and generally I like to include an automated test, which means creating a fixture. However, I always forget how to do that, and have to figure out how to do that all over again. This time I've written a blog post so I can refer to it in future...

@pcambra Agree prices are high, and a challenge if you don't have a sponsoring organisation. We would welcome you to join the #DrupalMentoring team and apply for a mentor ticket. I'm sure you'd be an awesome mentor!
@drupalassoc The DA statement seems dismissive of the genuine concerns from the community. I totally agree Florida has one of the most inclusive Drupal communities, but it also has one of the most anti-LGBTQ+ administrations. I guess the ship has sailed for 2027. Perhaps a working group could be formed to listen to the genuine concerns of the community, and how to address them in future. There are many outside the US venues in NA, and not just in Canada.
@nwhyte Ooh, I've been to Heverlee!
Landed at Stansted and on the train to Cambridge for DrupalCamp England! A little later than I hoped.
I've been building a Drupal Advent Calendar, focusing on the current project to build an exciting new Drupal CMS, codenamed Starshot.
