❗️ Over 30 official Red Hat npm packages were compromised. How they got in: - A Red Hat employee's GitHub account was compromised. - Attackers pushed "orphan commits" (detached from branch history) straight in, bypassing code review with no pull request. - Payload "Miasma" (Mini Shai-Hulud variant) steals GitHub/cloud/Vault/SSH/npm secrets. Rotate everything since June 1. - The commits added a workflow (ci.yaml) script (_index.js) that abused npm trusted publishing, requesting a real OIDC token to publish backdoored versions.

After some deliberation, I finally decided to make TestingLiveView.com free! I still think it's an amazing resource, but my focus is elsewhere now. So, I wanted to make it a free resource for the community. #MyElixirStatus

Raila Odinga was a true champion of democracy. A child of independence, he endured decades of struggle and sacrifice for the broader cause of freedom and self-governance in Kenya. Time and again, I personally saw him put the interests of his country ahead of his own ambitions. Like few other leaders anywhere, he was willing to choose the path of peaceful reconciliation without compromising his core values. Through his life, Raila Odinga set an example not just for Kenyans, but across Africa and around the world. I know he will be missed. Michelle and I send our deepest condolences to his family and to the people of Kenya.
