   Project mention: Good Careers at Bad Companies | news.ycombinator.com | 2026-06-05

   OP/author here! Apologies about the malware and captcha. It looks like my site was exploited by CVE-2026-26980 affecting all Ghost sites pre v6.19 [1][2] An API key was hijacked to inject malicious JS into every page that looks like a cloudflare captcha; it seems that the JS only targeted windows users, so I didn't catch it before I shared the post widely.

   The site has been upgraded to 6.44 to close the vulnerability, I rotated every API key and account credential, and both manually and programmatically scrubbed every instance I could find of the code injection across the database. I think we're clear now!

   Sorry to anyone caught by this and thank you to folks for flagging it (and thanks to the HN team for letting me follow up on this after comments were closed). I'm seriously mortified. X_X

    Project mention: How to Convert Supplier CSVs to Shopify/Amazon/WooCommerce Without Uploading to a Server | dev.to | 2026-06-01

    The decision to process everything in the browser wasn't just about cost savings (zero server bills). It's a privacy feature: supplier inventory data, wholesale prices, and margin calculations never leave the user's machine. Technically, the app uses Papa Parse for CSV and SheetJS for XLSX, both loaded dynamically from CDN. The parsed rows are stored in a simple JavaScript array — no WebAssembly, no worker pool, just plain array operations that complete in under 50ms for typical supplier files.

    🌟 JavaScript Style Guide, with linter & automatic code fixer

    

    Project mention: Birth of Prettier | news.ycombinator.com | 2025-10-09

    Sounds similar to my personal history of adopting StandardJS (https://github.com/standard/standard) as soon as it appeared, doing the same at the org I was at the time. Based on memory, seems StandardJS appeared before prettier in the ecosystem?

    Still to this day I just use standard when starting a new project, not even sure what the difference against prettier is, it's more or less the same as far as I can tell but maybe faster?
