Kymmenen Jyväskylässä vietetyn vuoden jälkeen olen palannut Helsinkiin. Yllättävän vähän on muuttunut, mihin saattaa toki vaikuttaa säännöllisten työmatkojen aiheuttama harha.

When all this started, I questioned if I would resume my WordPress contributions that had been on hiatus. When all started going really batshit crazy, I questioned it even more. All that made me sad. I do believe in WordPress’s mission. I do believe in FOSS and it having a positive impact to our world. …
