There are plenty of Magsafe compatible holders for the iPhone, where you snap something onto the back of the phone to hold a few of your credit and debit cards. However, ESR have decided to take the opportunity to differentiate their product on the market by adding in extra features.

With the release of the second generation of Apple AirTag it got me thinking about how we use them and how they’re built.

A strong title, I’ll admit. But, as you’ll see, I’m not wrong.
I’ve been a massive fan of Battlefield 4 since it first came out. I bought it for the PlayStation 3 and then upgraded to the PlayStation 4 version, when I got that. I played it for thousands of hours and hit the top rank.

With the release of WordPress 6.9, I’m finally returning to the contributing to core. The last time was WordPress 6.5 (I’m genuinely not sure what I did for that one – it certainly wasn’t code related!) and, previous to that, 5.8, which was over 4 years ago.
And this contribution has been quite the journey.
