The solution the supply chain problems is removing your deps from .gitignore
I head the major realisation today that we've all been bamboozled.
All the supply chain attacks currently happening would never even happen if we just checked in our language-respective vendor/node_modules/venv directories into git and just deployed straight from that.
Screw the dependency install and upgrade step. Screw the automated build step. Screw the breaking changes because $package_owner doesnt adhere to semver.
Checking in dependencies and their updates individually is, and has always been the way out of this mess.
Remove vendor/ node_modules/ and venv/ from your .gitignore today and skip the install step in your CI and you eliminate 99% of the attack surface instantly. Was it always that easy???? I think it was!
You think checking in your composer.lock or package.lock saves you? Hah. Npm install is "smart" and checks for updates and silently installs new versions and updates your lockfile. You should have used npm ci instead. We actively train devs to run 'composer update' to check for new releases that fix 'issues' they might encounter locally and delete the lockfiles as a first measure to fix issues.
Do you vet every update to your composer.lock? That one innocent commit hash that's changed could just pull in 20kb of obfuscated exploit code and you'd never know.
All of this is compounded by the longstanding hilarious github bug where you can fork a repository and push your commit to it, then pluck the commit hash and append that to the original repository URL. On the Github webinterface you'll see a notice "this commit has might not belong to this repo or a fork of it" but on the terminal you'll never see that, and that's exactly what the current worms exploit.
Checking in your dependencies and eliminating the install step would make all of this trackable and traceable. Imo the performance hit is worth it.

Show HN: A platform to find people to jam on side projects with
I have always found it funny how challenging it can be to find people to jam on side projects with.
There are literally entire sub-Reddits where people post looking for someone to work on a project with. That is super inefficient. There are also newsletters for this (also pretty inefficient).
Let's Jam is my attempt to solve this.
This is NOT a cofounder matching platform. The idea is to connect people with ideas and skills so they can jam on them together. If they end up becoming cofounders, cool, but that is up to them. This is also NOT a place for freelancers to hunt job opportunities. Again, the platform is for people who have an idea or a skill and want to work on something together.
How it works:
> You either a) find a project and request to jam on it with that person, b) post a project and wait for someone to request to jam on it with you, c) claim an idea and wait for someone to request to jam on it with you.
> Once someone requests to jam with you, you'll get an email, and you can vet them via LinkedIn or their past work. If you think they'll be a good fit then accept their request and they'll reach out to you.
> That's it. Simple.
Any feedback is greatly appreciated!
