I build Ecommerce stores for a living (Magento Open Source primarily), and the part that has always been the worst is the very beginning, especially so if you're on a team of peopl…

I don't have an exact count, but during my analysis, I found that ~40 of the top 100 starred repos in the PHP ecosystem were impacted. Primarily by jobs that run `on: schedule` or …

After yesterday's composer situation, I felt the need to write down my perspective on how this came to be as the vulnerability reporter.

It's a mix of responsibility between both systems. A new format combined with an old "bug".

I was the reporter on this one. If you have Github Actions in your organization, disable them immediately if you're unsure which version of composer your Github Actions run.

I wanted to challenge myself to see if I could build a chat-style “UI editor” into Magento’s admin panel so that I could have fun making content again (and hopefully make the conte…

Hello again everyone! I’m posting again to say thanks for the feedback, comments and insights on my last post. It was great feedback and I really appreciate it. The support I have …

From a brief review, it looks like the underlying platform they use is https://www.scayle.com/ (though I'm not sure its the one that was attacked) its just the one I found while lo…

I'm one of the maintainers of Faker, so hopefully I can help remedy any situation we inadvertently created. https://fakerjs.dev/api/helpers.html#arrayelement I believe is what you'…

Businesses will always have commerce problems, so you're pretty stable in terms of consistent income. If you can make a name for yourself, you can do very well. Especially for Mage…

Fully agree. The problems are hard, the interested talent is limited (who would want to work on line of business software when academia actively pushes people towards other things)…

MageOS is not a maintenance mode, unfortunately we don't do a good job expressing that. The goal is to migrate management of the codebase out of Adobe's hands back into the communi…

So, I happen to know this niche extremely well! I'm one of the maintainers of MageOS (a fork of Magento) as well as a maintainer of Daffodil (a monolithic Angular PWA framework - n…

I actively hire this way.
