Several times a day, actually! I'm on twitter, and I often bitch about the finer things about my dayjob (software development), usually accompanied by screenshots... So it's very handy indeed!

Whoa! This is incredible! Great job mate!

Hi, I'm @hmemcpy, @omervk's partner in crim^H^H^Hplaintextoffending :)

One of Such Volunteers (wow!) made a Chrome Extension that scrapes addresses from PTO and shows you a red banner if you're on a site that's featured PTO!

Yeah... We're working on a "proper" site (with proper API). It will be up soon, but it's taking its time :(

Sorry for the late reply.

That's an interesting question - would a unit test prevent this error? To answer this, let's consider what happened: the database didn't respond in an appropriate way, and probably returned an error. I'm not exactly sure what exact error was displayed, but WordPress has caught this situation, and handled it the best it could - displaying a proper error. I would write a unit test for this exact scenario - using a fake (mock) object, simulate the database timeout, and make sure that the error was caught and handled appropriately. Other then that there's no real other way to gracefully recover.

Sorry, my hosting is probably not... used to any traffic :) Should be ok now...

It's already planned :) Stay tuned!

Just make a tumblr page for it :) Seriously, not including setting up a domain it takes about 15 minutes...
