There wasn’t a HeroPress essay this week, so on Twitter we did a retrospective, looking at past essays. We do have a new Hallway Chats though! I got to chat with Alice Orrù in the hallway at WordCamp Italia! This week’s Tip Of The Week is about Content-Encoding, something super important for your server. And there’s MORE! Check it out!
Hallway Chats
I’ve known Alice for a number of years now, she did a HeroPress essay long ago. We’ve even met several times, but THIS TIME, this time I had a microphone!
We had a great conversation, she’s a wonderful person. Give it a listen and the next time you see her, say hi!
Alice’s Hallway Chat is available on HallwayChats.com.
