On this episode of WPwatercooler titled EP468 – UncURLing WordPress 6.4, hosts Jason Tucker, Sé Reed, Jason Cosper, and Scott Kingsley Clark discuss the recent release of WordPress 6.4 and its implications. The conversation begins with a light-hearted introduction and quickly dives into the complexities and challenges surrounding the new update. Sé Reed shares her experience as a first-time release lead, highlighting the social, community, leadership, and technological implications of the update. The panel delves into a critical issue that arose with the release, specifically concerning the ‘Requests' library used by WordPress. A change in this library led to significant performance issues for certain hosting configurations, impacting many sites. The discussion emphasizes the inherent challenges in testing every possible configuration in a diverse ecosystem like WordPress. The episode also touches on the broader issues of open-source funding and maintenance. The panelists highlight the underfunding of critical libraries and tools that form the backbone of WordPress and many other systems. They argue that the lack of attention and funding towards these essential components poses a risk to the stability and security of the wider web infrastructure. The conversation extends to the governance and funding of PHP, the underlying programming language of WordPress, and the broader open-source ecosystem. The hosts discuss the need for more proactive support and funding from companies and individuals who benefit from these open-source resources. The episode concludes with a discussion on the new WPwatercooler community initiative called “Aftercooler,” designed to foster further discussions and interactions within the WPwatercooler community on our Discord.

Panel Members:1. Rob Alexander, Executive Director, Small Business Development Centers in Springfield2. Darin Gerdes, Professor of Management, Charleston Southern UniversityQuestion for discussion:For an organization to thrive, are there any “necessary conditions” required internal to the organization and its members? By “necessary conditions,” I mean that an organization will be ineffective at a minimum or ultimately fail to achieve its goals without these conditions.I'm trying to dig up the roots of organizational effectiveness, and I am interested in the necessary conditions required for all organizations, regardless of size or purpose. We might also delineate between requirements needed for survival versus conditions necessary for thriving.One prominent example might be purpose: No organization is sustainable without a purpose. For example, some organizations form to solve an immediate problem. Once that problem is solved, the organization dissolves. Other organizations might fail because an organization's purpose becomes confused, unclear, or even disagreed upon by its members.

He restated that members of the panel were appointed on merit, debunking reports that they lobbied to get into the position. Adegboruwa described a report credited to an unnamed counsel to the Lagos State Government that members of the panel took bribes as unfair, ungodly, and least expected of the government and its lawyers.

Most of us go through our medical training with the future thoughts of practicing in our health-related fields as our life profession somewhere.

And it is here also that we will one day finish our careers and then retire. Sometimes our lives change course. And sometimes it just takes a simple “Yes” for that change to occur. Come and hear testimonies of hope and encouragement from a panel of medical providers that God had changed the course of their lives. Come and dream of the wonders that God has planned for you as you hear stories of His providential calling. Panel Members will include: David Stevens MD: CEO of Christian Medical and Dental Associations Charlie Vittitow DMD: Missions Director at Southeast Christian Church Tricia Burgess MD: Upcoming Director of Global Health Outreach David Maddy DMD: Clinical Assistant Professor and Director of International Outreach and Service Learning, University of Louisville School of Dentistry

The final panel at the IWA Cardiff Media Summit on December 3rd 2014 The governance of Wales has changed significantly since 1999, but the way the Welsh public consumes news content hasn’t. The vast majority of people in Wales read London based newspapers whilst the majority of their news consumption on TV and radio is not Wales focused. This is an opportunity to discuss the way Wales is portrayed, to discuss the way the broadcast sector in general covers the issues that matter to Wales and to address any democratic deficit. All of this in the light of any further changes that are likely to flow following the Scottish referendum. Panel Members: Chair - Ruth McElroy, Reader in Media and Cultural Studies, Uni. of South Wales Rhodri Talfan-Davies, Director, BBC Cymru Wales Angela Graham, TV Producer Glyn Mathias, Content Board member for Wales, Ofcom Slide 1: Over 50% of respondents either did not know that the Welsh Government is mainly responsible for the NHS in Wales or incorrectly attributed responsibility to the UK Government 38% of respondents either didn’t know who had the main responsibility for Education or incorrectly attributed it to the UK Government Only 50% of respondents correctly attributed main responsibility for Policing to the UK Government.  Slide 2: Most readers of daily newspapers in Wales read UK newspapers which include little content that relates to Wales and the National Assembly for Wales Wales has higher usage of social media as alternative news sources on the internet compared to the rest of the UK Slide 3: ‘There are some aspects of national life in Wales that are not sufficiently captured through our English language television output, and I would include comedy, entertainment and culture in those categories. Does this matter? Of course it does: the vitality of any nation must surely rest on more than its journalism. One cannot fully realise a nation’s creative potential or harness its diverse talents through the important, but narrow, prism of news’ (Tony Hall). Slde 4: Wales has seen the biggest decrease, by more than a fifth, in spend on nations’ programming since 2008 Wales has seen 30% growth in online usage for TV Slide 5: People in Wales listen to 21.7 hours of radio per week, higher than the UK average. BBC Network accounts for 51% of total share of listening hours in Wales – driven by Radio 2 and Radio 4 Listening hours for local commercial stations is lowest in Wales

Interview with Paul A. James, MD, author of 2014 Evidence-Based Guideline for the Management of High Blood Pressure in Adults: Report From the Panel Members Appointed to the Eighth Joint National Committee (JNC 8)

Changing working environments, complex business requirements, projects, and technologies are placing new demands on user experience designers. The site architectures, content inventories, wireframes, personas, and creative briefs that once formed the keystone of our user experience toolkit, only represent a portion of our responsibilities now. This panel will continue the skills discussion introduced by Liz Sanders in her participatory design workshop. We will examine the skills, methods, ideas, and approaches required for future user experience practitioners. Panelists will share their experience and discuss current and future challenges in building user experience groups and preparing future practitioners for success.
