   Yes, courteously and graciously verified by him on Twitter: "Before everyone beats up on Akamai/Prolexic too much, they were providing me service pro bono. So, as I said, I don't fault them at all." https://

   I'm curious what others may have to say about which regions have great independent shops (or franchises, if such exist). I'm lucky to travel all over the world for work, in part because I can taste-tour espresso culture everywhere

    As the (programmer) spouse of a commercial-rated pilot I can endorse this premise. I've learned a lot about focus, analysis, and how parts AND process work together from my flights with her. The stakes are high, and that's why pro

    Of course, wasn't saying that there shouldn't be a license. This is an interesting cultural lens for me, having been heads-down in the Magento (OSL/AFL core) world for so long. Seems GNU is common for Wordpress, plugin autho

    tl;dr: I was compelled to write this because I saw a lot of complaints which seem to come from the end of the Magento 1 era. Many of these complaints are reduced when considering the context, and they are all handled quite nicely in the Mag

    Were you on your own, trying to support these extensions? That might have been too much to handle, especially in the heyday of Connect - which is why we completely replaced it with a new app store called Marketplace. The big differences are

    The tricky thing about looking at number of issues is that we have a high volume of interaction on the repo as well as a lot of cruft from even before the beta (I'm looking into winnowing these down). I'm spending 50% of my time o
