brent_peterson: to actually go and think about doing your sabatical

150
00:06:19,140 –> 00:06:20,140
brent_peterson: and not working.

151
00:06:19,613 –> 00:06:21,773
kalen: Yeah, it’s tough. it’s tough.

152
00:06:21,540 –> 00:06:22,540
153
00:06:22,573 –> 00:06:28,573
kalen: Uh, So what? what? Uh? What did you talk to Yssie about today? Man, y, I saw his post

154
00:06:29,053 –> 00:06:31,613
kalen: on the open source situation. I,

155
00:06:33,213 –> 00:06:36,653
kalen: I, um. I agreed with a lot of it. I was happy that he said a lot of stuff he said.

156
00:06:37,300 –> 00:06:38,300
157
00:06:37,933 –> 00:06:39,453
kalen: But what did you guys rant about?

158
00:06:38,080 –> 00:06:43,840
brent_peterson: so I think W. we. We tried to dig into what is the issue here? Um, and it’s

159
00:06:44,000 –> 00:06:47,920
brent_peterson: really not. It’s not about forking or not forking right, and I didn’t make

160
00:06:48,000 –> 00:06:52,320
brent_peterson: the joke about Uh, my my neighbor, as I was growing up. Uh, I grew up in

161
00:06:52,400 –> 00:06:57,520
brent_peterson: Golden valley, Minnesota, and my neighbor had a uh, at a had like a thirty

162
00:06:57,760 –> 00:07:03,120
brent_peterson: two Cadillac, this giant car, and he got personalized license plates on the

163
00:07:03,200 –> 00:07:05,040
brent_peterson: car that said four ▁q two.

164
00:07:05,953 –> 00:07:06,953
165
00:07:06,800 –> 00:07:13,200
brent_peterson: Um, and I’m sure it had nothing to do with Uh, forking a Github repository

166
00:07:13,360 –> 00:07:16,240
brent_peterson: or any sort of repository. Uh, because it was like

167
00:07:16,073 –> 00:07:17,073
kalen: You never know.

168
00:07:16,400 –> 00:07:18,960
brent_peterson: this is a. This is in the late seventies, anyways,

169
00:07:19,373 –> 00:07:25,213
kalen: I mean, maybe William is seventy four years old and he just is, is aged very well,

170
00:07:23,920 –> 00:07:29,440
brent_peterson: y. He, he carries it very well anyway, so I don’t think that this is a. The.

171
00:07:29,600 –> 00:07:34,000
brent_peterson: The issue here is not about forking or not forking. The issue is about

172
00:07:34,320 –> 00:07:36,880
brent_peterson: transparency and communication from Adobe.

173
00:07:38,033 –> 00:07:39,033
174
00:07:38,560 –> 00:07:44,320
brent_peterson: And the second issue then is about the Magento Association and how much can

175
00:07:44,260 –> 00:07:45,260
brent_peterson: they share?

176
00:07:46,320 –> 00:07:50,160
brent_peterson: How much control do they have? And what do people think they can do

177
00:07:50,753 –> 00:07:51,753
178
00:07:52,973 –> 00:07:57,453
kalen: Yeah, I think it’s all. Yeah, there is kind of. It’s all kind of bundled together and

179
00:07:57,533 –> 00:08:03,213
kalen: it’ weird. I feel like even talking right. You’re in a doobe partner, right, I

180
00:08:03,373 –> 00:08:07,773
kalen: assume, unless you’ve gotten pulled from the partner program for making tons of

181
00:08:07,853 –> 00:08:11,133
kalen: horrible dad jokes, which I assume could happen at any point.

182
00:08:12,113 –> 00:08:13,113
183
00:08:12,620 –> 00:08:13,620
brent_peterson: getting close?

184
00:08:16,173 –> 00:08:20,493
kalen: but like it, you know when people are in the partner program they can’t necessarily

185
00:08:20,273 –> 00:08:21,273
186
00:08:21,473 –> 00:08:22,473
kalen: you know,

187
00:08:23,213 –> 00:08:28,813
kalen: throw out whatever ideas or whatever thoughts they might have, so I’m always I’m

188
00:08:28,893 –> 00:08:33,133
kalen: always kind of tipt toing, like you know what I mean, like like, I feel like when I I

189
00:08:33,213 –> 00:08:37,293
kalen: watch the panel and it feels like people are tipt toing and tipt toing and tipt

190
00:08:35,100 –> 00:08:36,100
brent_peterson: Yeah, really

191
00:08:37,453 –> 00:08:41,213
kalen: toing, And it’s like you know, I don’t even want to ask you too many questions about

192
00:08:41,373 –> 00:08:44,653
kalen: it be cause I don’t. I don’t want to get anybody in trouble. Noody, wants to get in

193
00:08:44,733 –> 00:08:49,533
kalen: trouble. You know what I mean like, so, which I think is part of the issue. You know,

194
00:08:49,613 –> 00:08:51,373
kalen: I think is part of the challenge is that

195
00:08:52,973 –> 00:08:54,813
kalen: everybody’s just so you

196
00:08:54,180 –> 00:08:55,180
197
00:08:54,893 –> 00:08:56,013
kalen: know. Well, it’s

198
00:08:54,960 –> 00:08:58,720
brent_peterson: Yeah. but what is the issue here? I think the issue is pretty clear that and

199
00:08:58,800 –> 00:08:59,840
brent_peterson: they stated it right.

200
00:09:01,440 –> 00:09:08,160
brent_peterson: They, this so again. This makes for a lot of unknown variables. There is no

201
00:09:08,320 –> 00:09:11,360
brent_peterson: public road map from a gentle open source and this has

202
00:09:11,153 –> 00:09:12,153
203
00:09:11,600 –> 00:09:12,640
brent_peterson: left a lot of the community

204
00:09:13,760 –> 00:09:18,320
brent_peterson: who believe in the monolith who believe in the model is a valid approach to

205
00:09:18,400 –> 00:09:21,840
brent_peterson: many cases feeling uneasy about the future in Ma Geno,

206
00:09:22,433 –> 00:09:23,433
207
00:09:23,420 –> 00:09:24,420
brent_peterson: So I think

208
00:09:24,033 –> 00:09:25,033
209
00:09:25,040 –> 00:09:28,880
brent_peterson: it, and I don’t think it’s about forking or not forking. It’s not really

210
00:09:29,200 –> 00:09:35,520
brent_peterson: about about monolith or splitting up into micro services. It really is about

211
00:09:36,240 –> 00:09:40,480
brent_peterson: helping people understand where the open sources where the open source of

212
00:09:40,420 –> 00:09:41,420
brent_peterson: magenta is going.

213
00:09:42,733 –> 00:09:47,053
kalen: right, right and a, and I just feel like, Um,

214
00:09:49,533 –> 00:09:54,013
kalen: you know I, you know I’m I’m a little bit further from the details these days. As far

215
00:09:54,173 –> 00:09:59,853
kalen: as what exactly they’re introducing with the micros, and how that’s differing from

216
00:10:00,093 –> 00:10:05,293
kalen: the the traditional kind of moth. I bundle together lots of different things under

217
00:10:05,533 –> 00:10:11,373
kalen: this category of like community unrest, like the the, The people that have been

218
00:10:11,693 –> 00:10:16,733
kalen: complaining about con, contributing the people that have posted an issue to Gith hub

219
00:10:16,973 –> 00:10:22,333
kalen: and they get no response And then ninety days later the issue gets auto closed,

220
00:10:22,653 –> 00:10:27,293
kalen: right, Or you know, Uh, Jacob Winkler has posted a lot about stuff he’s contributed

221
00:10:27,453 –> 00:10:31,453
kalen: and it just gets. it. just sits there. I talked to Damie and Retzinger about that

222
00:10:31,533 –> 00:10:37,773
kalen: yesterday, Lukash, uh, uh. What’s his face? that? Um, uh, he’s going to get mad of me

223
00:10:37,853 –> 00:10:43,053
kalen: for that that had similar issues. It’s just like there’s all this stuff where there’s

224
00:10:43,133 –> 00:10:47,053
kalen: all this energy of the com. Like when I said something to me, said like there’s this

225
00:10:47,133 –> 00:10:52,573
kalen: energy and if it’s not sort of harnessed it gets frustrated And that’s what I see

226
00:10:52,813 –> 00:10:56,733
kalen: from. Like The Twenty thousand foot view is like there’s people waiting around on P.

227
00:10:56,893 –> 00:11:02,893
kalen: Rs. there’s people waiting around for architectural direction. There’s just all this

228
00:11:03,133 –> 00:11:08,733
kalen: and it’s just like Hey, let’s start a dialogue with a dooby. What does that even mean

229
00:11:09,133 –> 00:11:14,413
kalen: start a dialogue like I want. like I want to see people just do stuff you know, Like

230
00:11:14,893 –> 00:11:19,293
kalen: William came out with Hooa, and everybody loves it. He reinvented the front end.

231
00:11:19,853 –> 00:11:25,053
kalen: Everybody loves it right. it’s it’s he’s doing stuff. He’s actually making stuff

232
00:11:25,293 –> 00:11:30,253
kalen: happen independently. I feel like that’s kind of the spir. I’m on a rant here. I’m on

233
00:11:30,333 –> 00:11:31,773
kalen: a full on rent. Um,

234
00:11:32,813 –> 00:11:37,293
kalen: anyways, I feel like that’s kind of the spirit of Magento is that we just go out and

235
00:11:37,373 –> 00:11:42,093
kalen: we do stuff, whether that’s in the form of a a module that we create and contribute

236
00:11:42,333 –> 00:11:48,573
kalen: or whatever. we just do stuff. And we don’t sit around waiting for approval from

237
00:11:48,733 –> 00:11:54,093
kalen: anybody, and I feel like we’ve just been sitting around waiting for approvals. You

238
00:11:54,173 –> 00:11:58,653
kalen: know now, I, that’s just my. I could be completely wrong about that ’cause I’m not

239
00:11:58,813 –> 00:12:01,213
kalen: very on the ground connected all this stuff

240
00:12:02,720 –> 00:12:06,640
brent_peterson: Yeah, I think they’re I. you’re. You’re very correct in saying that people

241
00:12:06,880 –> 00:12:08,560
brent_peterson: are sitting around waiting for

242
00:12:09,600 –> 00:12:13,200
brent_peterson: fixes to get put in and I think that uh

243
00:12:14,320 –> 00:12:19,680
brent_peterson: that Adobe has definitely missed the boat in terms of making sure that from

244
00:12:19,760 –> 00:12:23,680
brent_peterson: the community side they’re keeping up with what’s happening on those on

245
00:12:23,760 –> 00:12:26,480
brent_peterson: those poll requests and and those fixes, because they are

246
00:12:26,353 –> 00:12:27,353
kalen: right, right,

247
00:12:26,640 –> 00:12:32,240
brent_peterson: missing out on a huge amount of potential bugs that are in the code already

248
00:12:32,480 –> 00:12:34,240
brent_peterson: and that are getting fixed And it’s a.

249
00:12:34,033 –> 00:12:35,033
250
00:12:34,480 –> 00:12:38,240
brent_peterson: It’s a Mi. You know thousands of coders that are out there helping that. Um.

251
00:12:38,033 –> 00:12:39,033
252
00:12:39,440 –> 00:12:42,960
brent_peterson: So that’s one issue. The other issue that you brought up is what is the road

253
00:12:43,120 –> 00:12:47,200
brent_peterson: map of Magento? Um. I think there’s sort of a road map for the commerce

254
00:12:47,360 –> 00:12:51,200
brent_peterson: version of it, but it’s not. It hasn’t been published since Say twenty

255
00:12:51,520 –> 00:12:56,240
brent_peterson: nineteen, Uh, Since the last time we had a live conference. Um, I don’t know

256
00:12:56,400 –> 00:13:00,640
brent_peterson: if they’ve actually put out at any like Meet Me Genento, India, or any like

257
00:13:00,640 –> 00:13:04,720
brent_peterson: this. Meet me Gentle Poland, Did anybody from a doobe show up for the

258
00:13:04,720 –> 00:13:07,360
brent_peterson: virtual part of it? I haven’t seen the whole conference yet,

259
00:13:08,260 –> 00:13:09,260
brent_peterson: but did

260
00:13:08,653 –> 00:13:12,893
kalen: yeah, I know, I just I just know they said that they had a travel restriction so as

261
00:13:12,973 –> 00:13:16,333
kalen: far as actually going, nobody actually went there in person.

262
00:13:17,040 –> 00:13:21,680
brent_peterson: yeah. So, um, you know that’s that be? I think, just helping us to

263
00:13:21,700 –> 00:13:22,700
264
00:13:23,440 –> 00:13:28,240
brent_peterson: where we’re going the last time I saw Anton Cririll, before he left Magento.

265
00:13:28,880 –> 00:13:35,280
brent_peterson: he gave a speech at Meet Magento Germany about Magenta moving to isolated

266
00:13:35,220 –> 00:13:36,220
267
00:13:36,593 –> 00:13:37,593
268
00:13:37,360 –> 00:13:41,840
brent_peterson: And I’m okay with that. And the reason is is you can still put those

269
00:13:42,000 –> 00:13:47,760
brent_peterson: isolated services together as a monoliphs, and and deploy it now. Yes and I

270
00:13:48,000 –> 00:13:52,800
brent_peterson: had the conversation this morning about. Does that mean? Uh, you’re going to

271
00:13:52,880 –> 00:13:57,040
brent_peterson: have to use something like G, P, r, S, or some. He. He had a technical term

272
00:13:57,200 –> 00:14:01,120
brent_peterson: that have already forgotten. Um. they’re They’re like a graphq, ▁, type of

273
00:14:01,200 –> 00:14:05,120
brent_peterson: interface that’s internal that binds those services together And is that

274
00:14:05,360 –> 00:14:08,560
brent_peterson: going to be slower than not binding them together? I don’t know who. I don’t

275
00:14:08,720 –> 00:14:13,600
brent_peterson: care. because if it isn’t that, doobe’s probably going to fix it. So is it

276
00:14:13,340 –> 00:14:14,340
brent_peterson: is the

277
00:14:13,553 –> 00:14:14,553
278
00:14:14,000 –> 00:14:17,840
brent_peterson: monolither really an issue or not? I don’t know. I think what the issue is

279
00:14:18,160 –> 00:14:23,920
brent_peterson: is like what they’ve done with Uh, with search. they’ve deprecated uh, a Mi

280
00:14:24,160 –> 00:14:29,360
brent_peterson: sequel search in favor of elastic search. without giving the option of

281
00:14:29,520 –> 00:14:33,680
brent_peterson: having just a regular. Uh, my sequel search, and

282
00:14:33,313 –> 00:14:34,313
283
00:14:33,920 –> 00:14:37,360
brent_peterson: jeeze, I know that everybody loves my sequel search. They love the fact

284
00:14:37,073 –> 00:14:38,073
285
00:14:37,520 –> 00:14:41,120
brent_peterson: that as you search for anything, you bring everything up on the database.

286
00:14:41,393 –> 00:14:42,393
287
00:14:42,580 –> 00:14:43,580
brent_peterson: What could be better

288
00:14:42,993 –> 00:14:43,993
289
00:14:43,680 –> 00:14:47,040
brent_peterson: than if you had a thousand things? And no matter what you search for, you

290
00:14:47,200 –> 00:14:49,840
brent_peterson: always get a thousand results. See, I’m

291
00:14:49,553 –> 00:14:50,553
292
00:14:50,000 –> 00:14:52,000
brent_peterson: being sarcastic. Now you’re not even laughing,

293
00:14:52,573 –> 00:14:56,013
kalen: I. I didn’t even catch that because all I was thinking about was going into my next

294
00:14:55,833 –> 00:14:56,833
295
00:14:57,840 –> 00:15:02,160
brent_peterson: So what you’re saying is what I hear you saying. Now is you’re not actually

296
00:15:02,400 –> 00:15:03,760
brent_peterson: listening to me? You’re

297
00:15:03,773 –> 00:15:05,213
kalen: I. I let me,

298
00:15:03,920 –> 00:15:05,920
brent_peterson: just thinking about what you’re going to say next.

299
00:15:06,653 –> 00:15:10,733
kalen: you know I did make that mistake, but let me take a step back. Let me take a step

300
00:15:10,893 –> 00:15:16,733
kalen: back. And what you said was there is a thousand things in the database and every se

301
00:15:16,973 –> 00:15:20,973
kalen: ▁query returns you without. So you’re saying My sequel is horrendous for research. Is

302
00:15:20,953 –> 00:15:21,953
kalen: what you trying to say?

303
00:15:21,360 –> 00:15:25,360
brent_peterson: It sucks. but at least it works at the some degree, and it gives somebody

304
00:15:25,600 –> 00:15:28,320
brent_peterson: that basic option if they want to. You know that the issue

305
00:15:28,073 –> 00:15:29,073
kalen: I? yeah,

306
00:15:28,560 –> 00:15:32,800
brent_peterson: is making it as little like you want to make sure that it’s is the. the. The

307
00:15:32,960 –> 00:15:37,040
brent_peterson: complication on the infrastructure side is low, so people are. Are it’s easy

308
00:15:37,280 –> 00:15:38,800
brent_peterson: entry? right? We don’t

309
00:15:38,713 –> 00:15:39,713
kalen: yes, yes,

310
00:15:38,880 –> 00:15:42,240
brent_peterson: want it to be super complicated that people don’t want to use it, Or it’s

311
00:15:42,180 –> 00:15:43,180
brent_peterson: something that’s

312
00:15:42,593 –> 00:15:43,593
313
00:15:43,120 –> 00:15:45,520
brent_peterson: only for big enterprise companies to use.

314
00:15:46,413 –> 00:15:50,733
kalen: right, I, And and and I heard that sort of said so many different ways by Will and

315
00:15:50,813 –> 00:15:52,493
kalen: others on the panel Is. it’s like

316
00:15:53,773 –> 00:15:59,853
kalen: keeping things simple. Um, you know so that people can get into it simply so that

317
00:15:59,853 –> 00:16:04,893
kalen: it’s not this this super overcomplicated thing to work with. Of course on the higher

318
00:16:05,053 –> 00:16:09,213
kalen: end, things are always going to get more complicated. Um, for different types of more

319
00:16:09,373 –> 00:16:15,853
kalen: complex projects, Um, but like, Yeah, like if you can just keep things simple and

320
00:16:16,173 –> 00:16:21,853
kalen: easy to use. Um, there’s so much power in that I can’t. you know. I can’t give a a

321
00:16:22,893 –> 00:16:28,573
kalen: technical argument for elastic search versus my asqeel. Um. I sort of you know I. I

322
00:16:28,813 –> 00:16:32,973
kalen: kind of follow the community. I see if people are upset and disgruntled. And then

323
00:16:33,053 –> 00:16:35,293
kalen: that’s what I kind of pay attention to these days.

324
00:16:36,333 –> 00:16:42,253
kalen: Um. but and again, I, I think Hoova is this huge precedent where I know it’s only a

325
00:16:42,333 –> 00:16:50,093
kalen: front end. I know it’s not all a Magento, but a significant chunk of Magento was re

326
00:16:50,573 –> 00:16:57,213
kalen: in, imagined in a very simple way, right, like less jobacript, less complexity and

327
00:16:57,293 –> 00:17:02,893
kalen: it’s been successful and people love working with it. Um. and it works in the real

328
00:17:03,133 –> 00:17:07,853
kalen: world. In production. This isn’t like somebody, the rantings of somebody that hasn’t

329
00:17:08,013 –> 00:17:13,053
kalen: actually done anything in the real world, So I feel like it’s taking that same

330
00:17:14,253 –> 00:17:19,213
kalen: Um approach. Like they were talking about how you can’t compete in Magento. with sass

331
00:17:19,373 –> 00:17:23,373
kalen: offerings. You can’t do anything for ten thousand dollars. You can’t do anything at

332
00:17:23,453 –> 00:17:29,213
kalen: all in these lower price ranges. Um. and they were saying, you know now with whoever

333
00:17:29,453 –> 00:17:34,253
kalen: they’re able to compete at some of these lower Um price targets in Europe and

334
00:17:34,333 –> 00:17:40,013
kalen: different markets, which for them is is a win. you know, and it just opens up. you

335
00:17:40,013 –> 00:17:43,613
kalen: know. The. that’s what our roots are in the Magental community. I mean, I’m preaching

336
00:17:43,693 –> 00:17:48,813
kalen: of the choir here literally. Because you, you, you sing in your choir, Um,

337
00:17:49,633 –> 00:17:50,633
338
00:17:51,533 –> 00:17:53,533
kalen: do you still sing in your choir? By the way?

339
00:17:54,160 –> 00:17:59,040
brent_peterson: Um. I am signed up to play piano at church in October. Yes,

340
00:17:57,933 –> 00:17:59,693
kalen: that’s right. that’s right.

341
00:18:00,020 –> 00:18:01,020
brent_peterson: first time of the year.

342
00:18:02,033 –> 00:18:03,033
kalen: Oh, nice.

343
00:18:02,780 –> 00:18:03,780
344
00:18:03,213 –> 00:18:07,613
kalen: nice. that’s cool. So, anyways, I don’t know, man, uh, it’s um,

345
00:18:09,053 –> 00:18:13,293
kalen: proof will be in the pudding. That’s another thing. the I said on the on the panel

346
00:18:13,693 –> 00:18:16,413
kalen: which I really enjoyed. It was very, very interesting.

347
00:18:18,673 –> 00:18:19,673
348
00:18:19,200 –> 00:18:23,200
brent_peterson: No, I think that, Uh that. I mean, I think that William Willm has started

349
00:18:23,440 –> 00:18:27,520
brent_peterson: something that that has been that has been lacking in our community. Um, if

350
00:18:27,680 –> 00:18:32,400
brent_peterson: we look back at what happened when Ebay bought Magento, it took about three

351
00:18:32,420 –> 00:18:33,420
brent_peterson: years for

352
00:18:34,320 –> 00:18:40,880
brent_peterson: for them to realize that there is a strong underpinning of public sentiment

353
00:18:41,713 –> 00:18:42,713
354
00:18:42,560 –> 00:18:48,240
brent_peterson: that that evolved around Magento and Um. There was a number of people that

355
00:18:48,400 –> 00:18:53,360
brent_peterson: got invited to the imagined conference, and uh, Um and Um, you know they.

356
00:18:53,520 –> 00:18:57,920
brent_peterson: re. They sort of reinvigorated the community and then I think the next year

357
00:18:58,080 –> 00:19:00,320
brent_peterson: they sold they sold it. Um,

358
00:19:01,340 –> 00:19:02,340
brent_peterson: so um?

359
00:19:03,200 –> 00:19:06,800
brent_peterson: when uh? you know, I think when Uh, Marco of Veltic took over, then there

360
00:19:06,880 –> 00:19:11,440
brent_peterson: was this recom commitment to the Mu to the community. I’m interested in

361
00:19:11,600 –> 00:19:17,600
brent_peterson: learning Uh, from people that that were involved in say, uh, a M, a patache

362
00:19:17,760 –> 00:19:21,840
brent_peterson: sling or one of the other open source platforms that they have. Uh, what

363
00:19:22,080 –> 00:19:24,800
brent_peterson: what that community looks like? And I know it’s a different

364
00:19:24,433 –> 00:19:25,433
365
00:19:24,960 –> 00:19:30,000
brent_peterson: type of community. I think a M’s on Java. Um, and it’s a little bit more

366
00:19:30,080 –> 00:19:31,200
brent_peterson: mature maybe than

367
00:19:30,833 –> 00:19:31,833
368
00:19:31,360 –> 00:19:35,280
brent_peterson: Magento, But it’d be interesting to see what what’s happened to those people

369
00:19:36,080 –> 00:19:39,360
brent_peterson: and do. does. Uh. does a doobe still listen to them?

370
00:19:40,973 –> 00:19:46,573
kalen: Yeah, that’s a good question. I think I want to say, Cordova, or Phone Gap, or one of

371
00:19:46,653 –> 00:19:51,533
kalen: those was also one of the bigger open source projects that had been acquired, and I

372
00:19:51,613 –> 00:19:56,733
kalen: was always curious about the same thing. You know how, how how have things gone with

373
00:19:56,813 –> 00:19:59,293
kalen: some of these other open source communities?

374
00:19:59,873 –> 00:20:00,873
375
00:20:01,613 –> 00:20:06,973
kalen: but I don’t know. I think. probably the fact that we don’t already know like they’re

376
00:20:07,133 –> 00:20:11,293
kalen: not there. There isn’t like a druple community out there. There isn’t a typo three

377
00:20:11,153 –> 00:20:12,153
378
00:20:11,920 –> 00:20:13,280
brent_peterson: Well, there is a Dple community.

379
00:20:12,173 –> 00:20:16,493
kalen: out there. There’s a no. no, No, No, but I’m saying Under Adobe

380
00:20:16,720 –> 00:20:18,080
brent_peterson: Oh, right. okay, got it.

381
00:20:16,973 –> 00:20:22,733
kalen: Like there there, you know there isn’t there. Aren’t one of these kind of bigger open

382
00:20:23,053 –> 00:20:25,293
kalen: source communities that you think of immediately,

383
00:20:26,733 –> 00:20:31,213
kalen: So yes, I mean, I, I don’t really know. And then, of course you know more and more

384
00:20:31,373 –> 00:20:35,933
kalen: people are leaving every day, right like Matt. A C was there for a while and he was

385
00:20:36,093 –> 00:20:44,493
kalen: rara open source. Then he was gone and bed bargs, of course is, uh, is uh now at uh,

386
00:20:45,693 –> 00:20:47,453
kalen: not sp, uh, shopware, right,

387
00:20:47,620 –> 00:20:48,620
brent_peterson: not at Spriker.

388
00:20:48,573 –> 00:20:54,333
kalen: um, I was going to say spriker, um, um, uh, Geto moved to Spriker, right,

389
00:20:54,260 –> 00:20:55,260
390
00:20:54,833 –> 00:20:55,833
391
00:20:56,573 –> 00:21:02,653
kalen: So you know, um, Yeah, there’s just this like, Uh, You know a lot of people like

392
00:21:02,973 –> 00:21:09,453
kalen: Anton’s at Word Press at W, P engine, right, Pyoter is at. Is it Uh, w P,

393
00:21:09,600 –> 00:21:11,440
brent_peterson: I thought he’ at Big commerce. Yeah,

394
00:21:09,693 –> 00:21:13,213
kalen: engine, big Haer, for Yeah, first it was W P, and then big

395
00:21:13,140 –> 00:21:14,140
396
00:21:13,293 –> 00:21:14,413
kalen: commerce. Right, So it’s like

397
00:21:15,180 –> 00:21:16,180
brent_peterson: Yeah, I think

398
00:21:15,633 –> 00:21:16,633
kalen: and then

399
00:21:16,000 –> 00:21:19,120
brent_peterson: that you know, and when they get so large that those people are going to

400
00:21:19,120 –> 00:21:24,400
brent_peterson: come and go, And that’s just that’s the reality of what it is. And uh, you

401
00:21:24,480 –> 00:21:29,520
brent_peterson: know. The. The. I think the the key point there is that the community can’t

402
00:21:29,760 –> 00:21:36,560
brent_peterson: be made up of any one person or group of people at Adobe Slash Magento, And

403
00:21:36,720 –> 00:21:40,960
brent_peterson: the community never was made up of core people at Magento. The community

404
00:21:40,753 –> 00:21:41,753
405
00:21:41,360 –> 00:21:43,680
brent_peterson: was made up of our community, and if you

406
00:21:43,233 –> 00:21:44,233
407
00:21:43,760 –> 00:21:48,880
brent_peterson: look all the way back to that first imagin conference, Um, it was. you know,

408
00:21:48,960 –> 00:21:51,920
brent_peterson: a whole bunch of people from all over the world that made up that community,

409
00:21:52,593 –> 00:21:53,593
410
00:21:53,680 –> 00:21:56,080
brent_peterson: Germans and French people, and a few Americans.

411
00:21:56,673 –> 00:21:57,673
412
00:21:57,280 –> 00:22:02,400
brent_peterson: Um. That kind of that that start started there. or at least we the some of

413
00:22:02,480 –> 00:22:07,200
brent_peterson: the core people in that community, then, Um. and that that’s just continue

414
00:22:07,680 –> 00:22:09,840
brent_peterson: to change and and grow and

415
00:22:11,040 –> 00:22:12,800
brent_peterson: ebb and flow. Um, and

416
00:22:12,433 –> 00:22:13,433
417
00:22:12,960 –> 00:22:16,560
brent_peterson: people come and go and and join and leave and are interested and not

418
00:22:16,460 –> 00:22:17,460
419
00:22:18,160 –> 00:22:22,320
brent_peterson: But I think that’s that’s the key part of it and that’s where I think that’s

420
00:22:22,400 –> 00:22:29,600
brent_peterson: where Willm and Vn and and the team at Um at Whofa have have tapped into.

421
00:22:30,720 –> 00:22:33,840
brent_peterson: and now this open letter now has spurred something

422
00:22:34,880 –> 00:22:40,000
brent_peterson: that is, is causing people to at least raise their eyebrows. Wake up, you

423
00:22:39,620 –> 00:22:40,620
424
00:22:40,113 –> 00:22:41,113
kalen: Mhm, Mhm, Mhm,

425
00:22:41,520 –> 00:22:43,920
brent_peterson: and and take some notice. and something iss happening.

426
00:22:45,613 –> 00:22:50,173
kalen: Yeah, yeah, I mean, I’m even feeling re energized, you know, and and I, you know,

427
00:22:50,493 –> 00:22:54,653
kalen: I’ve got other stuff I’m starting to focus on. I always feel guilty that I, I don’t

428
00:22:55,293 –> 00:23:01,453
kalen: do. you know, Uh, do more for the association and different things like that. And um,

429
00:23:02,253 –> 00:23:07,213
kalen: you know I, I, I’ve drift. My interests have drifted, you know, as like a lot of

430
00:23:07,293 –> 00:23:13,693
kalen: people do. Um, but yeah, this whole thing has kind of got me all excited and

431
00:23:13,853 –> 00:23:15,053
kalen: bothered, you know,

432
00:23:16,093 –> 00:23:21,453
kalen: and got me you know, thinking about things and kind of thinking back to like. What is

433
00:23:21,613 –> 00:23:27,213
kalen: that original Magento community spirit that’s somehow being expressed? Um. here,

434
00:23:28,333 –> 00:23:30,813
kalen: Um, you know, a little bit of a rebellious

435
00:23:32,253 –> 00:23:36,493
kalen: spirit. It, or at least it kind of an independent. You know, there’s a real

436
00:23:36,573 –> 00:23:40,493
kalen: independent streak in the Magento community you know, and I think.

437
00:23:39,680 –> 00:23:44,400
brent_peterson: Yeah, and I think, Uh, you know Yov and and and Roy and Bob were all

438
00:23:45,520 –> 00:23:50,000
brent_peterson: very independent minded people who promoted that culture in our community.

439
00:23:50,380 –> 00:23:51,380
brent_peterson: And really

440
00:23:51,033 –> 00:23:52,033
441
00:23:51,680 –> 00:23:56,240
brent_peterson: the the key was that they promoted innovation that happened in it. And I

442
00:23:56,320 –> 00:24:00,400
brent_peterson: think the one thing that we are, we are sorely missing in Gentle

443
00:24:00,640 –> 00:24:06,000
brent_peterson: specifically is that drive from leadership and else, just say, leadership is

444
00:24:06,000 –> 00:24:10,080
brent_peterson: at the Adobe level here that drive to innovate and have the community

445
00:24:10,560 –> 00:24:14,880
brent_peterson: innovate, and the frustrations that you mentioned earlier around, maybe and

446
00:24:15,120 –> 00:24:16,720
brent_peterson: around, not getting pull requests done,

447
00:24:17,300 –> 00:24:18,300
448
00:24:19,040 –> 00:24:24,880
brent_peterson: If you can’t get a poll request done and looked at for a error, how what is

449
00:24:24,960 –> 00:24:28,720
brent_peterson: your chances of getting a poll request for something that is contributing

450
00:24:28,960 –> 00:24:33,200
brent_peterson: that is actually innovative to Magento rather than just fixing something?

451
00:24:33,793 –> 00:24:34,793
kalen: right. right.

452
00:24:36,173 –> 00:24:40,333
kalen: Yeah, totally. And and I don’t know, I don’t know what the realities are on the

453
00:24:40,333 –> 00:24:44,493
kalen: ground. I’m sure that they’ve got a a tough work load Is probably hard to manage all

454
00:24:44,653 –> 00:24:49,053
kalen: these issues and things that are coming in. There’s probably a lot of noise coming

455
00:24:48,753 –> 00:24:49,753
456
00:24:50,653 –> 00:24:56,893
kalen: so it’s probably a hard tricky thing to solve. But I don’t know. I just feel like if

457
00:24:57,053 –> 00:25:03,213
kalen: the community sort of just did their own fork, I kind of just feel like it would. It

458
00:25:03,293 –> 00:25:07,773
kalen: would just I want to believe that it would work better. And and maybe that’s naive?

459
00:25:08,013 –> 00:25:13,053
kalen: you know, maybe at this scale that’s completely naive. I don’t know. but I, I’m like,

460
00:25:13,773 –> 00:25:18,973
kalen: let’s do it. Let’s you know, let’s let’s see what this thing would be. You know.

461
00:25:20,000 –> 00:25:24,880
brent_peterson: Yeah, I’m not. I’m not uh. convinced on forking yet, Um. I, um. I, I would

462
00:25:25,120 –> 00:25:29,040
brent_peterson: like to have. I would like to have Adobe energized a little bit more

463
00:25:29,280 –> 00:25:35,440
brent_peterson: internally to kind of see some value in what the community can do, Um, and I

464
00:25:35,520 –> 00:25:38,320
brent_peterson: know that there’s an answer for whatever is out there,

465
00:25:39,360 –> 00:25:43,440
brent_peterson: Um to fix. And I think you know the reality too. Is that? what? what? I

466
00:25:43,520 –> 00:25:48,720
brent_peterson: don’t remember? What year they started publishing Um. G, the code on Github.

467
00:25:49,600 –> 00:25:53,840
brent_peterson: It wasn’t that long ago that we couldn’t even contribute to bug fixes. That

468
00:25:53,920 –> 00:25:56,160
brent_peterson: you had to email somebody and email your patch.

469
00:25:55,753 –> 00:25:56,753
470
00:25:56,400 –> 00:25:57,840
brent_peterson: and hopefully it got looked at.

471
00:25:58,353 –> 00:25:59,353
472
00:25:58,880 –> 00:26:03,440
brent_peterson: You know that that we where it’s been it’s It’s relatively new that we could

473
00:26:03,600 –> 00:26:09,360
brent_peterson: actually co. We could, we could do a Poquest and we could uh offer that as a

474
00:26:09,020 –> 00:26:10,020
475
00:26:10,713 –> 00:26:11,713
476
00:26:11,520 –> 00:26:15,840
brent_peterson: I think that they just need to make pay some attention to it, and you know

477
00:26:16,160 –> 00:26:19,840
brent_peterson: just really what it comes back down to, though is just communication and

478
00:26:20,000 –> 00:26:23,120
brent_peterson: transparency. If they were to come out and say hey, we don’t have enough

479
00:26:23,280 –> 00:26:26,400
brent_peterson: people to do this. We don’t have enough people to actually look at all these

480
00:26:26,560 –> 00:26:27,680
brent_peterson: bugs that you’re putting in.

481
00:26:28,573 –> 00:26:33,933
kalen: right, right. like people have asked. like, okay, Wh, What exactly these associations

482
00:26:34,093 –> 00:26:38,973
kalen: roll with open source? Is the association doing events only? are they going to be

483
00:26:39,293 –> 00:26:43,853
kalen: somehow, you know, in charge of open source. And then, like I think, it was said in

484
00:26:43,933 –> 00:26:48,253
kalen: the panel yesterday that like a dialogue was started with a doobe on the topic,

485
00:26:48,653 –> 00:26:52,973
kalen: right, What exactly does that mean that a dialogue was started like you’re saying

486
00:26:53,213 –> 00:26:58,973
kalen: Transparency. like. Okay, Who’s the person that is in charge of this when? like?

487
00:26:59,453 –> 00:27:05,213
kalen: like? When was the issue raised? How much time has passed? When when are we going to

488
00:27:05,293 –> 00:27:09,933
kalen: get an answer? You know, so I guess you’re I think you’re right From that perspective

489
00:27:10,093 –> 00:27:16,333
kalen: Is Is is like. If we could get transparency, Um, that would, that would be great and

490
00:27:16,413 –> 00:27:21,773
kalen: I don’t. I don’t think anybody there is like a bad guy like. I just think I don’t

491
00:27:21,853 –> 00:27:25,613
kalen: know. They probably have their own internal meetings and internal policies and

492
00:27:25,773 –> 00:27:31,133
kalen: they’re just doing their job. You know, But something is amiss

493
00:27:32,973 –> 00:27:40,333
kalen: so as something’s not aligned, so like, how can we? I don’t know how. I don’t know.

494
00:27:40,273 –> 00:27:41,273
kalen: you know.

495
00:27:40,880 –> 00:27:45,840
brent_peterson: Yeah, you’ going to love my next analogy. Um, so if we were to look at the

496
00:27:45,840 –> 00:27:51,040
brent_peterson: Magento Association as being sort of this socialistic type, En

497
00:27:52,640 –> 00:27:56,960
brent_peterson: has to do everything as a collective and it doesn’t want to upset the

498
00:27:57,040 –> 00:27:58,400
brent_peterson: masses, so

499
00:27:58,113 –> 00:27:59,113
500
00:27:58,640 –> 00:28:02,080
brent_peterson: everything is very, very vanilla and and even

501
00:28:01,633 –> 00:28:02,633
kalen: yes, yes,

502
00:28:02,480 –> 00:28:09,360
brent_peterson: keel. And if if you were to stand, there’s no room for dissenters or people

503
00:28:09,680 –> 00:28:14,400
brent_peterson: to ra to stand up and say Hey, We got to move faster. There’s no room for

504
00:28:14,560 –> 00:28:19,120
brent_peterson: anything to happen quickly because it has to go through so many processes

505
00:28:19,280 –> 00:28:22,400
brent_peterson: and it has to go through ▁x, y and ▁z. And there’s

506
00:28:22,193 –> 00:28:23,193
kalen: exactly exactly,

507
00:28:22,880 –> 00:28:26,400
brent_peterson: that that’s just not going to happen. So you know, I don’t know if that’s

508
00:28:26,560 –> 00:28:30,320
brent_peterson: goingnna get any better, and I don’t know why it would be any better in the

509
00:28:30,400 –> 00:28:34,000
brent_peterson: in A. in this Mag, major open source community alliance.

510
00:28:35,040 –> 00:28:39,200
brent_peterson: They were able to make that letter happen quickly because they only involved

511
00:28:39,360 –> 00:28:43,760
brent_peterson: the people that were there right. So, if we were to say and I, you know,

512
00:28:43,840 –> 00:28:46,880
brent_peterson: like I didn’t know. Apparently that letter was floating around for a week.

513
00:28:48,080 –> 00:28:54,000
brent_peterson: Um, so it was it was seen by a few people, which I can understand. But if

514
00:28:54,160 –> 00:28:58,080
brent_peterson: you were now to say okay, I want to have everybody see it. Okay. Well now

515
00:28:58,240 –> 00:28:59,840
brent_peterson: everybody’s going to have a different opinion,

516
00:29:00,193 –> 00:29:01,193
517
00:29:00,880 –> 00:29:05,440
brent_peterson: And and uh, suddenly you get mired down in in, Um,

518
00:29:06,480 –> 00:29:10,000
brent_peterson: in a whole bunch of you know what, not so good

519
00:29:09,533 –> 00:29:10,813
kalen: a whole bunch of moarchy.

520
00:29:11,120 –> 00:29:13,920
brent_peterson: molchy. That’s a great word. Thank you for that, Um,

521
00:29:15,440 –> 00:29:20,640
brent_peterson: and that moarchy. Then just keeps us, keeps our feet stuck and we can’t move

522
00:29:20,880 –> 00:29:24,160
brent_peterson: because we’re waiting to get out of this moarchy, where

523
00:29:24,113 –> 00:29:25,113
kalen: Yeah, yeah, I mean

524
00:29:24,480 –> 00:29:28,000
brent_peterson: if if you’ more, if you’re smaller and more agile, you can make those

525
00:29:28,240 –> 00:29:30,880
brent_peterson: decisions quickly and go forward. It’s kinda like

526
00:29:30,633 –> 00:29:31,633
527
00:29:31,360 –> 00:29:36,160
brent_peterson: it’s kinda like you know as a leader you need to make those decision. You

528
00:29:36,240 –> 00:29:40,400
brent_peterson: have to do it sometimes unilaterally, Uh, because you need to make ‘

529
00:29:40,220 –> 00:29:41,220
530
00:29:42,000 –> 00:29:47,040
brent_peterson: and as you know as somebody that is an entrepreneur, then that is part of

531
00:29:47,200 –> 00:29:50,320
brent_peterson: the culture. But if you’re looking at something where it’s a bigger

532
00:29:50,560 –> 00:29:54,720
brent_peterson: organization like Adobe or like Smith Buckland, and you have to follow a

533
00:29:54,800 –> 00:29:59,600
brent_peterson: whole set of rules, and uh, you have to go through every single step and

534
00:29:59,680 –> 00:30:01,920
brent_peterson: whoop, and there is no room

535
00:30:03,200 –> 00:30:05,520
brent_peterson: for for pushing the envelope, Because

536
00:30:06,340 –> 00:30:07,340
537
00:30:06,433 –> 00:30:07,433
538
00:30:07,040 –> 00:30:10,320
brent_peterson: will we do? Well, I guess you know what we really need here is Elon Musk,

539
00:30:12,173 –> 00:30:13,773
kalen: that’s what it comes back to.

540
00:30:12,960 –> 00:30:16,160
brent_peterson: He would say he would save Ma Gentta, open source.

541
00:30:16,973 –> 00:30:25,293
kalen: I mean, I think Willm is the Elon musk. You know, Um, which um, you know. I think you

542
00:30:25,193 –> 00:30:26,193
kalen: know that you need

543
00:30:27,133 –> 00:30:31,453
kalen: Um. I, I’m a big believer in what individuals can do right like you, you do through

544
00:30:31,613 –> 00:30:37,133
kalen: out the analogy of of Um, socialism, or kind of collectivism, which is kind of

545
00:30:37,373 –> 00:30:39,053
kalen: contrasted against kind of

546
00:30:40,093 –> 00:30:44,333
kalen: individual. What? what an individual or a small group of individuals can do right? I

547
00:30:44,413 –> 00:30:49,133
kalen: mean, I think of Laravelle, started by Taus, one guy, Taylor Otwell, you know, And

548
00:30:49,053 –> 00:30:55,053
kalen: and it’s it’s this huge ecosystem that’s grown, but he’s continued as the kind of B D

549
00:30:55,133 –> 00:31:00,893
kalen: F. ▁l, You know the sort of benev benevolent dictator for life. And and it’s it’s

550
00:31:01,133 –> 00:31:03,853
kalen: it’s doing great. right’s thriving. Um,

551
00:31:05,293 –> 00:31:07,373
kalen: whereas Magento is kind of Um,

552
00:31:08,413 –> 00:31:10,253
kalen: stagnated in in some ways,

553
00:31:11,693 –> 00:31:16,653
kalen: and anyway, I, you know, I just think that and I and I know he probably hates it

554
00:31:16,733 –> 00:31:22,093
kalen: every time I. I sort of make a big deal out of him individually. Um, because he’s

555
00:31:22,253 –> 00:31:27,293
kalen: trying to build a uh team and kind of, I think catalyze kind of a broader movement

556
00:31:27,613 –> 00:31:29,453
kalen: you know, but um,

557
00:31:30,493 –> 00:31:35,293
kalen: yeah, man, I mean, you know I, I think one person can can build something you know.

558
00:31:35,533 –> 00:31:39,773
kalen: Incredible. It’s like it’s like the mythical Man month. you know, I’m sure Doobe’s

559
00:31:39,853 –> 00:31:45,373
kalen: throwing tons of resources at various things. I’m sure if you looked at their burn

560
00:31:45,613 –> 00:31:51,293
kalen: charts and their budgets, they would be significant. But that doesn’t always mean

561
00:31:51,533 –> 00:31:56,813
kalen: that you know things are getting done And and I know that people on the association

562
00:31:56,973 –> 00:32:03,133
kalen: have put in a ton of effort a ton of time, a ton of blood tears. I just you know,

563
00:32:03,533 –> 00:32:09,053
kalen: that doesn’t always guarantee like results right. Sometimes one person or a small

564
00:32:09,293 –> 00:32:15,773
kalen: group of people can get stuff done super fast, right on on a on a shoes string

565
00:32:15,673 –> 00:32:16,673
566
00:32:18,733 –> 00:32:23,613
kalen: whereas the bigger incumbent right can spend a lot of money. Really a lot of time and

567
00:32:23,853 –> 00:32:26,733
kalen: not really go as fast. You

568
00:32:27,680 –> 00:32:30,720
brent_peterson: Yeah, no, I think you, you hit it there and there’ two sides of that whole

569
00:32:30,960 –> 00:32:36,160
brent_peterson: thing about about collective collectivism. There is a broad community that

570
00:32:36,320 –> 00:32:41,920
brent_peterson: can support a A. a. a, Um, a dream of somebody. and that that broad

571
00:32:42,160 –> 00:32:46,160
brent_peterson: community it kind come together in the terms of Magento and fix a whole

572
00:32:46,240 –> 00:32:51,360
brent_peterson: bunch of bugs. Right, uh, but if that, but what that broad community can’t

573
00:32:51,520 –> 00:32:52,800
brent_peterson: do as a community

574
00:32:53,700 –> 00:32:54,700
575
00:32:55,360 –> 00:33:00,560
brent_peterson: C is is always agree on what is the next best thing that we. What is the

576
00:33:00,640 –> 00:33:06,400
brent_peterson: next big thing that we should do for our community to move us forward. Um,

577
00:33:06,640 –> 00:33:09,040
brent_peterson: because you are always going to have somebody that is more

578
00:33:10,400 –> 00:33:14,400
brent_peterson: all, used a word conservative and liberal. Uh, not in the political sense,

579
00:33:14,640 –> 00:33:17,520
brent_peterson: but just if you think about it, the people would like. Some people in our

580
00:33:17,600 –> 00:33:20,560
brent_peterson: community would like it to stay the way it has been, and some people would

581
00:33:20,720 –> 00:33:23,680
brent_peterson: like to grow into new things. And there’s new people coming to the community

582
00:33:24,080 –> 00:33:27,680
brent_peterson: that know. Don’t care about what happened in Magenta One. they, they’re

583
00:33:27,760 –> 00:33:30,560
brent_peterson: they’re in. They’re involved in a genento, too. Uh,

584
00:33:30,273 –> 00:33:31,273
kalen: right, right,

585
00:33:30,720 –> 00:33:34,080
brent_peterson: and they would like to see that. So there’s all kinds of opposing views that

586
00:33:34,160 –> 00:33:38,880
brent_peterson: are happening. So the two sides are are the broad community, Help support it

587
00:33:39,200 –> 00:33:44,080
brent_peterson: and maintain it, and and make sure that we’re we’re growing. In a flat

588
00:33:44,400 –> 00:33:47,520
brent_peterson: sense. You know we’re growing. but it’s it’s really just maintaining

589
00:33:47,760 –> 00:33:51,840
brent_peterson: something. Then there’s the little people that are poking things at it that

590
00:33:51,920 –> 00:33:54,720
brent_peterson: are lighting fighters here and there, like the Hofa theme,

591
00:33:55,153 –> 00:33:56,153
592
00:33:55,680 –> 00:33:59,600
brent_peterson: And those people are the ones that are sticking out that are making things

593
00:33:59,300 –> 00:34:00,300
594
00:34:01,213 –> 00:34:02,253
kalen: right, y

595
00:34:02,640 –> 00:34:09,600
brent_peterson: So you know, in terms of I, in terms of the uh, uh, Moska Moscow, Moska, M,

596
00:34:09,840 –> 00:34:12,400
brent_peterson: o, s, C, A. In terms of Mosa

597
00:34:11,853 –> 00:34:13,773
kalen: Magento, open source.

598
00:34:16,900 –> 00:34:17,900
599
00:34:17,693 –> 00:34:20,653
kalen: what is it Alliance Alliance? That’s it.

600
00:34:19,440 –> 00:34:23,760
brent_peterson: right, so you know? what does that mean? Okay? are they all going to? Uh? if

601
00:34:23,920 –> 00:34:26,800
brent_peterson: what if what if there is a bunch of people that would like to go with

602
00:34:26,960 –> 00:34:28,160
brent_peterson: isolated services

603
00:34:29,200 –> 00:34:34,640
brent_peterson: instead of micro services, And I would like my catalogu to be able to be

604
00:34:34,720 –> 00:34:39,600
brent_peterson: deployed differently than my my customer group, or whatever that is, Uh, or

605
00:34:39,760 –> 00:34:44,160
brent_peterson: my search, or or, however you want to deploy things, because it’ll make me

606
00:34:44,320 –> 00:34:48,800
brent_peterson: make. It’ll make my solution a little easier because I don’t change anything

607
00:34:49,200 –> 00:34:54,160
brent_peterson: but my catalog, and and I need to scale my catalogu, so I only want to scale

608
00:34:54,400 –> 00:34:56,480
brent_peterson: that part of it or whatever that pie is.

609
00:34:56,593 –> 00:34:57,593
kalen: Mhm, Mhm, Mhm,

610
00:34:57,200 –> 00:35:00,720
brent_peterson: Maybe there’s some people that want that and I, you know, I think that the

611
00:35:00,880 –> 00:35:03,680
brent_peterson: idea that that between p w a and hufah,

612
00:35:04,720 –> 00:35:11,120
brent_peterson: uh, a bolted on theme versus a a p w A’s theme. Um, you know that’s just the

613
00:35:11,200 –> 00:35:13,200
brent_peterson: beginning of making it more complicated

614
00:35:14,240 –> 00:35:20,160
brent_peterson: and does, does it? Um. Does it make it so much more complicated that people

615
00:35:20,180 –> 00:35:21,180
brent_peterson: aren’t going to use it?

616
00:35:22,973 –> 00:35:25,613
kalen: Yeah, I mean, that’s kind of the million dollar question like

617
00:35:27,773 –> 00:35:32,253
kalen: I don’t know, you know, I mean I. I. I did some stuff with like Laraville, which uh

618
00:35:32,413 –> 00:35:37,133
kalen: bundles all sorts of uh, modern jaasript stuff that I wasn’t familiar with Web,

619
00:35:38,413 –> 00:35:43,133
kalen: all sorts of stuff that I just was not at all familiar with and it mostly just worked

620
00:35:43,533 –> 00:35:47,373
kalen: right out of the box because they had it configured and packaged in a way that it was

621
00:35:47,453 –> 00:35:53,933
kalen: easy to get up and running and kind of on boarded me into this tool set. And um, my

622
00:35:54,093 –> 00:35:58,573
kalen: sense is that it’s sort of the exact opposite case with a lot of Theo stuff where

623
00:35:58,733 –> 00:36:02,973
kalen: it’s you. Things just take a long time to get to get going,

624
00:36:04,093 –> 00:36:08,253
kalen: and the complexity is slowing every you know everybody down.

625
00:36:09,233 –> 00:36:10,233
626
00:36:11,293 –> 00:36:14,413
kalen: I. I. I don’t know. I mean you, you would know better than I would you know what the

627
00:36:14,493 –> 00:36:19,853
kalen: pros and cons are to the isolated services. Um it it. It just seems like there’s this

628
00:36:20,013 –> 00:36:25,693
kalen: contingent that is saying. Let’s keep it simple. Um, Which makes sense to me. keep it

629
00:36:25,773 –> 00:36:30,973
kalen: simple. Stupid, Um, and I, I don’t know. It seems like the Enterprise Commerce

630
00:36:31,133 –> 00:36:34,093
kalen: edition. Whatever the heck is being called These days. They still call it Enterprise.

631
00:36:34,813 –> 00:36:37,853
kalen: Um, Is kind of Adobe Commerce.

632
00:36:38,893 –> 00:36:43,293
kalen: Enterprise Edition Is is. Can it be like a different thing? It just feels like it’s

633
00:36:43,373 –> 00:36:45,853
kalen: going to be an entirely different thing from

634
00:36:46,433 –> 00:36:47,433
635
00:36:48,013 –> 00:36:53,133
kalen: Magento is Now. I mean, why not just have it become an entirely different thing

636
00:36:53,293 –> 00:36:58,013
kalen: written in Jaa Micro serviceerists. I, I mean, I’m hearing that it’s going to be

637
00:36:58,093 –> 00:37:01,053
kalen: getting rewritten a Java or something like that. I don’t know where I heard that

638
00:37:01,133 –> 00:37:02,333
kalen: from, but um,

639
00:37:02,400 –> 00:37:04,240
brent_peterson: Well, you’re in Austin. So you should know?

640
00:37:04,893 –> 00:37:08,093
kalen: I should know these things. you know, I hear things I hear a little.

641
00:37:07,440 –> 00:37:10,480
brent_peterson: what Do you? You should be hanging out at the coffee shops? Although a Doobe

642
00:37:10,800 –> 00:37:14,080
brent_peterson: employees hang out and you should be overly overhearing their conversations.

643
00:37:14,813 –> 00:37:18,013
kalen: Well, maybe that’s what I do. Maybe that’s where this is coming from.

644
00:37:18,060 –> 00:37:19,060
brent_peterson: Okay, good.

645
00:37:18,253 –> 00:37:23,693
kalen: You know, you never you. You never know. you never know. but um, you know, maybe they

646
00:37:23,853 –> 00:37:28,573
kalen: should just be completely different things. I mean, just let let the open source

647
00:37:28,893 –> 00:37:35,933
kalen: Magento crazies let us do our thing with our little S and B market, and and let the

648
00:37:36,093 –> 00:37:39,853
kalen: up market. Uh, you know Doobe commerce guys go nuts.

649
00:37:40,973 –> 00:37:47,693
kalen: you know, go absolutely nuts with your architecture. Rewrite it in Java. rewrite it

650
00:37:47,773 –> 00:37:52,013
kalen: in in. go. laying. whatever you want to do. You know what I’m saying?

651
00:37:53,073 –> 00:37:54,073
kalen: Maybe that’s the answer

652
00:37:54,080 –> 00:38:00,160
brent_peterson: I think the key here is still the underlying issue. That is still. there is

653
00:38:00,320 –> 00:38:03,520
brent_peterson: just a lack of transparency and communication from Adobe.

654
00:38:04,633 –> 00:38:05,633
kalen: right, Yeah,

655
00:38:05,120 –> 00:38:08,320
brent_peterson: That’s all. I mean that what youve just said would solve everybody’s

656
00:38:08,400 –> 00:38:11,840
brent_peterson: problem, because if they did that, then sure be that people would fork it,

657
00:38:12,000 –> 00:38:17,040
brent_peterson: and we’d be off to the races with to open Source and the Ma,

658
00:38:18,080 –> 00:38:21,280
brent_peterson: or a Doobe commerce. then would its own little beast

659
00:38:22,320 –> 00:38:25,520
brent_peterson: that would live on on on through the Adobe world.

660
00:38:26,033 –> 00:38:27,033
661
00:38:26,960 –> 00:38:31,520
brent_peterson: I don’t know if Adobe would want to do that because I think they’ also left.

662
00:38:32,400 –> 00:38:37,040
brent_peterson: Uh, you know a patchy sling there, which is the undering experience manager

663
00:38:36,900 –> 00:38:37,900
664
00:38:37,393 –> 00:38:38,393
665
00:38:39,853 –> 00:38:44,573
kalen: you know I. I. I actually had a conversation with Dame and Retsgrey yesterday. Um, I

666
00:38:44,573 –> 00:38:50,013
kalen: don’t know if you know him, but he’s a. He’s a. He’s a cool guy and uh, he, um, it’s

667
00:38:50,093 –> 00:38:55,213
kalen: not live yet, but um, he was saying something really interesting, which is that a uh.

668
00:38:55,293 –> 00:39:01,133
kalen: Magento is kind of like open source, but not exactly in the sense that a lot of these

669
00:39:01,293 –> 00:39:04,973
kalen: architectural decisions right, like I heard from. I think one or two different

670
00:39:05,213 –> 00:39:09,373
kalen: people. The thing about Java. Okay, not going to say who, Because again, that’s kind

671
00:39:09,453 –> 00:39:13,693
kalen: of the nature of this beast is that it’s like you know a guy and you have a

672
00:39:13,773 –> 00:39:17,773
kalen: conversation with some person. But it’s off the record because they’re not supposed

673
00:39:17,853 –> 00:39:23,293
kalen: to be what right. And this is sort of exactly how open source is not supposed to

674
00:39:23,373 –> 00:39:27,773
kalen: work. Everything should be discussed out in the open. It should all be discussed on

675
00:39:27,853 –> 00:39:32,573
kalen: Github. Whoever was talking about rewriting it in Java, if in K. If they were in

676
00:39:32,733 –> 00:39:38,333
kalen: fact, that should just be discussed openly right look, but there’s all these backroom

677
00:39:38,653 –> 00:39:43,693
kalen: conversations right. there’s the partner ecosystem. There’s always these backroom

678
00:39:43,933 –> 00:39:48,493
kalen: conversations and part of that is, Uh, you know, there’s a closer relationship

679
00:39:48,813 –> 00:39:52,333
kalen: between partners and that’s that can be a good thing. That can be a feature, not a

680
00:39:52,413 –> 00:39:57,373
kalen: bug. but it’s it’s also just kind of. you know. it’s kind of wacky. The whole thing.

681
00:39:57,953 –> 00:39:58,953
682
00:39:59,700 –> 00:40:00,700
683
00:40:00,353 –> 00:40:01,353
kalen: you know, it’s kind of

684
00:40:00,400 –> 00:40:02,640
brent_peterson: that’s back to somebody’s got to make a decision.

685
00:40:03,713 –> 00:40:04,713
686
00:40:04,720 –> 00:40:08,880
brent_peterson: At some point, the decisions the the moving forward decisions have to be

687
00:40:08,960 –> 00:40:13,840
brent_peterson: made, and they shouldn’t involve every single person in the whole world. You

688
00:40:13,380 –> 00:40:14,380
689
00:40:14,173 –> 00:40:15,373
kalen: Well, okay, I mean

690
00:40:14,400 –> 00:40:17,120
brent_peterson: there, there’s going to have to be a group of leaders that that do that, and

691
00:40:17,200 –> 00:40:20,320
brent_peterson: they’re going to have to make that decision and then live with the live with

692
00:40:20,100 –> 00:40:21,100
brent_peterson: that decision.

693
00:40:23,193 –> 00:40:24,193
kalen: you could be R. I

694
00:40:24,253 –> 00:40:28,333
kalen: mean, yeah, I mean, you know that’s where leadership is. That’s where leadership is

695
00:40:24,320 –> 00:40:25,520
brent_peterson: That’s what leadership is.

696
00:40:28,493 –> 00:40:32,973
kalen: and in business, that’s that’s how sort of business works. Um, you know, you’ve been

697
00:40:33,053 –> 00:40:36,893
kalen: a business owner for many years and you’ve had to make those types of decisions and

698
00:40:36,953 –> 00:40:37,953
kalen: stuff. Um,

699
00:40:38,913 –> 00:40:39,913
kalen: I think

700
00:40:40,813 –> 00:40:45,693
kalen: you know. And And, and certainly, if you just ask for everyone’s opinion and do what

701
00:40:45,773 –> 00:40:47,613
kalen: everybody wants you to do, I think that’s the wrong

702
00:40:48,633 –> 00:40:49,633
kalen: approach, too,

703
00:40:51,693 –> 00:40:55,373
kalen: so I don’t know, man I, I, I don’t have any answers.

704
00:40:53,840 –> 00:40:58,160
brent_peterson: Well, let’s let’s talk about this right. I’ve seen more more now about

705
00:40:58,480 –> 00:41:00,640
brent_peterson: people saying this is splintering our community.

706
00:41:01,853 –> 00:41:03,133
kalen: Okay, right, right,

707
00:41:02,480 –> 00:41:05,600
brent_peterson: How many times have we heard that in the last ten years

708
00:41:06,233 –> 00:41:07,233
709
00:41:07,220 –> 00:41:08,220
710
00:41:07,393 –> 00:41:08,393
711
00:41:07,920 –> 00:41:09,360
brent_peterson: this is splintering our community?

712
00:41:10,413 –> 00:41:13,453
kalen: I don’t know. what are you? actually? What are you thinking? What? What other things

713
00:41:13,533 –> 00:41:16,893
kalen: are you thinking about that We’ described as splintering.

714
00:41:15,440 –> 00:41:19,200
brent_peterson: We’ve heard that over and over again. That, though community is breaking up,

715
00:41:19,360 –> 00:41:24,000
brent_peterson: and this is the end and I think, remember Um in twenty fourteen at Meetmch

716
00:41:24,220 –> 00:41:25,220
brent_peterson: into New York, Um,

717
00:41:26,320 –> 00:41:28,800
brent_peterson: curt, uh, Curt from Classi Lama,

718
00:41:27,373 –> 00:41:31,693
kalen: Oh, there’s no nucleus or there’s no center of gravity right,

719
00:41:30,880 –> 00:41:34,720
brent_peterson: Right, he had that big speech and Karen Baker did the same thing about how

720
00:41:34,880 –> 00:41:37,920
brent_peterson: our community’s falling apart And uh, you know, I

721
00:41:37,553 –> 00:41:38,553
722
00:41:38,000 –> 00:41:42,080
brent_peterson: think those are the times where Um where maybe it is splintering and and

723
00:41:42,240 –> 00:41:47,200
brent_peterson: having those people stand up and talk about it brings us together again.

724
00:41:49,100 –> 00:41:50,100
brent_peterson: So but is it

725
00:41:49,713 –> 00:41:50,713
726
00:41:50,160 –> 00:41:53,520
brent_peterson: splintering is? Yes, of course, it’s always splintering. People are going

727
00:41:53,680 –> 00:41:55,680
brent_peterson: off in their own directions and so

728
00:41:55,533 –> 00:41:56,813
kalen: it’s been. It’s

729
00:41:56,620 –> 00:41:57,620
brent_peterson: let me

730
00:41:56,973 –> 00:42:00,013
kalen: been in a process of continual splintering forw

731
00:42:01,840 –> 00:42:05,680
brent_peterson: know, But really like what? What is it that you’re saying? If it splintering

732
00:42:05,840 –> 00:42:07,280
brent_peterson: and where would you like it to go?

733
00:42:08,400 –> 00:42:09,600
brent_peterson: Because we just talked about

734
00:42:10,720 –> 00:42:15,840
brent_peterson: the the collective wants to be this community right. But the people like

735
00:42:16,000 –> 00:42:20,400
brent_peterson: William are pushing the boundaries to make something happen and we all agree

736
00:42:20,640 –> 00:42:25,280
brent_peterson: what he was doing is good, but other people are saying that we should. we

737
00:42:25,440 –> 00:42:28,720
brent_peterson: should split Ma Geno into small pieces. Some people

738
00:42:28,273 –> 00:42:29,273
kalen: right right

739
00:42:29,040 –> 00:42:33,520
brent_peterson: agree with that, some people don’t. That’s splintering the community, right,

740
00:42:33,393 –> 00:42:34,393
kalen: right, right,

741
00:42:33,760 –> 00:42:38,080
brent_peterson: everybody’. not going to have the exact same opinion about everything. So

742
00:42:37,713 –> 00:42:38,713
743
00:42:38,240 –> 00:42:40,320
brent_peterson: what does splintering the mean?

744
00:42:43,053 –> 00:42:44,333
kalen: Yeah, I think

745
00:42:45,773 –> 00:42:49,933
kalen: I go back to Larriville, because I’m Ca. I, That’s the other the closest analogue I

746
00:42:50,013 –> 00:42:56,173
kalen: have. You’ve got one leader, Taylor Otwell, who is incredible. He, every year he

747
00:42:56,333 –> 00:43:02,733
kalen: reads the entire code base line by line. That’s how committed this dut is. Everybody

748
00:43:03,213 –> 00:43:07,133
kalen: respects them as the like. A Lot of open source projects need to have a leader, right

749
00:43:07,293 –> 00:43:13,533
kalen: a B d f, ▁l and Um. Lius Torvalts. Right. You think of these people and

750
00:43:14,893 –> 00:43:19,693
kalen: Um, or or companies need a founder. You know, you know you have a founder that’s led

751
00:43:19,853 –> 00:43:27,373
kalen: the company from day one and I, I feel like that is is kind of an important thing. We

752
00:43:27,453 –> 00:43:32,173
kalen: don’t have that right now. Um, although I think maybe that’s Willm, That’s my

753
00:43:32,253 –> 00:43:34,653
kalen: campaign, William for B. D f. ▁l, but

754
00:43:37,313 –> 00:43:38,313
kalen: I don’t know. I mean

755
00:43:39,293 –> 00:43:44,253
kalen: yeah, I mean yes, Th. this would. This could splinter things. I guess

756
00:43:45,693 –> 00:43:47,693
kalen: um, I, I think organically.

757
00:43:48,813 –> 00:43:54,573
kalen: if if it was successful, it would start to pick up steam. And then maybe people that

758
00:43:54,733 –> 00:43:59,133
kalen: were not as interested in it would start to find a use case for it right.

759
00:44:01,133 –> 00:44:06,093
kalen: I mean, what about commerce and open source? Is that a splintering? is that A? Is

760
00:44:06,173 –> 00:44:07,533
kalen: that a splintering of the community?

761
00:44:08,653 –> 00:44:09,773
kalen: You know. I mean you. re.

762
00:44:09,600 –> 00:44:12,640
brent_peterson: I mean a commerce and open source is just a name. and that’s been around

763
00:44:12,500 –> 00:44:13,500
764
00:44:15,280 –> 00:44:16,880
brent_peterson: Enterprise came out in twenty ten

765
00:44:17,633 –> 00:44:18,633
766
00:44:18,560 –> 00:44:24,080
brent_peterson: and know the reality is thato has to make money so they have to pay. They

767
00:44:24,140 –> 00:44:25,140
brent_peterson: have to pay the bills,

768
00:44:25,933 –> 00:44:29,053
kalen: Yeah, money is good. Money’s money is important.

769
00:44:31,073 –> 00:44:32,073
770
00:44:32,513 –> 00:44:33,513
771
00:44:34,173 –> 00:44:39,133
kalen: I guess I. I think the point you raise is is interesting to me. Is like everybody’s

772
00:44:39,293 –> 00:44:41,693
kalen: always saying that everything is splintering the the community

773
00:44:43,053 –> 00:44:48,333
kalen: and the argument the association is making is listen, guys. We have been working for

774
00:44:48,413 –> 00:44:53,293
kalen: three years now to create this association to put some structure in place to foster

775
00:44:53,533 –> 00:44:59,213
kalen: dialogues and you guys are trying to blow it all up and you guys are saying Oh, we’re

776
00:44:59,293 –> 00:45:04,413
kalen: just going to do our own thing, And they’re saying we want you to work with us right

777
00:45:04,733 –> 00:45:10,013
kalen: as the association to communicate these things in a in a clear way to Adobe.

778
00:45:11,453 –> 00:45:18,173
kalen: And and I feel, and like I get that. But the same time it’s like

779
00:45:19,293 –> 00:45:22,013
kalen: there’s so much pent up frustration

780
00:45:23,453 –> 00:45:27,613
kalen: and ankt in the community And it’s just like

781
00:45:28,973 –> 00:45:35,133
kalen: it’s sort of spontaneously combusting. I feel like. In some ways you know

782
00:45:34,720 –> 00:45:35,840
brent_peterson: But doesn’t it feel like

783
00:45:36,940 –> 00:45:37,940
brent_peterson: that’s what happening

784
00:45:38,960 –> 00:45:40,160
brent_peterson: every time this happens.

785
00:45:42,173 –> 00:45:44,333
kalen: what do you mean? What do you

786
00:45:43,280 –> 00:45:46,880
brent_peterson: I mean it feels like the things are falling apart when this

787
00:45:46,513 –> 00:45:47,513
788
00:45:46,740 –> 00:45:47,740
789
00:45:48,400 –> 00:45:52,080
brent_peterson: When it felt like when Um Ebay bought Mago,

790
00:45:53,760 –> 00:45:59,760
brent_peterson: they had that ▁x Commerce conference and then the next year it wasn’t I to a

791
00:45:59,840 –> 00:46:04,800
brent_peterson: man conference. It was just imagine. like Magento came out of it completely

792
00:46:05,180 –> 00:46:06,180
brent_peterson: right. Like

793
00:46:05,873 –> 00:46:06,873
kalen: right? right, right, right,

794
00:46:06,560 –> 00:46:12,560
brent_peterson: for you know, Magenta was removed completely from the verbage in in those in

795
00:46:12,480 –> 00:46:14,320
brent_peterson: in the conversation. Um,

796
00:46:15,680 –> 00:46:19,200
brent_peterson: it felt like it. it. That was worse than it is now.

797
00:46:20,240 –> 00:46:22,560
brent_peterson: In some sense, because it felt

798
00:46:22,193 –> 00:46:23,193
kalen: right, right,

799
00:46:22,720 –> 00:46:28,000
brent_peterson: like it was getting sucked into some beheemth like Ebay, and and we’re never

800
00:46:27,940 –> 00:46:28,940
brent_peterson: going to get it back.

801
00:46:30,413 –> 00:46:36,973
kalen: I think that the corporate overlords, they keep trying to sort of absorb Mago. and

802
00:46:37,053 –> 00:46:39,613
kalen: then it just doesn’t just can’t happen.

803
00:46:41,133 –> 00:46:47,133
kalen: Like, like I said man, the community is rebellious. We’d like to do our own thing. We

804
00:46:47,213 –> 00:46:54,013
kalen: have our own hive mind. You know we’re going to keep fighting. You know, we’re go to

805
00:46:54,173 –> 00:46:58,333
kalen: keep. We’re going to keep forking. You know, it’s going to keep aing

806
00:46:59,120 –> 00:47:01,040
brent_peterson: Yep, uh, you know. think about um.

807
00:47:02,160 –> 00:47:06,240
brent_peterson: think about you. Think about these business leaders that are making these

808
00:47:06,480 –> 00:47:11,600
brent_peterson: decisions that don’t give uh, rats. Whatever about Magento. They bought

809
00:47:11,760 –> 00:47:14,960
brent_peterson: Magento in in the sense that they needed, and they wanted a commerce

810
00:47:15,200 –> 00:47:20,000
brent_peterson: platform to to go into the Um, broader Uh portfolio for a doobe,

811
00:47:20,433 –> 00:47:21,433
812
00:47:20,960 –> 00:47:24,640
brent_peterson: Uh, and what? they could have chose some other platform. That’s a Sass

813
00:47:24,800 –> 00:47:28,000
brent_peterson: platform. They could have chose something like Big commerce or whatever is

814
00:47:28,160 –> 00:47:33,680
brent_peterson: out there. They chose a Ma genento and it’s a Ph P platform. I don’t. I’m

815
00:47:33,840 –> 00:47:38,400
brent_peterson: just, I’m just putting out my guesses here. I’m guessing they didn’t think

816
00:47:38,640 –> 00:47:42,800
brent_peterson: about. Hey, this is Ph P. and none of the other products on a doob or Ph. H.

817
00:47:42,500 –> 00:47:43,500
818
00:47:44,080 –> 00:47:47,520
brent_peterson: Right they? they didn’t think of any that. I’m sure they looked at a bunch

819
00:47:47,460 –> 00:47:48,460
brent_peterson: of factors

820
00:47:48,673 –> 00:47:49,673
821
00:47:49,120 –> 00:47:53,840
brent_peterson: that made it F. from a business standpoint Make made it make sense.

822
00:47:55,840 –> 00:47:59,360
brent_peterson: And then the next thing after that you have a whole bunch of managers that

823
00:47:59,440 –> 00:48:01,360
brent_peterson: make decision. Ions that again,

824
00:48:02,480 –> 00:48:05,840
brent_peterson: don’t necessarily a line with where Magento was.

825
00:48:07,200 –> 00:48:10,400
brent_peterson: They just are looking at where they would like it to be,

826
00:48:11,520 –> 00:48:17,200
brent_peterson: not necessarily thinking about how it got there and how it’s going to get

827
00:48:17,440 –> 00:48:22,240
brent_peterson: maintained. in terms of hey, you know we have three hundred thousand people

828
00:48:22,400 –> 00:48:27,600
brent_peterson: that care about it. Um, are we going to upset them if we start doing this or

829
00:48:27,680 –> 00:48:30,800
brent_peterson: are we going? Are they going to feel shut out when we stop talking

830
00:48:30,740 –> 00:48:31,740
831
00:48:32,433 –> 00:48:33,433
832
00:48:34,273 –> 00:48:35,273
833
00:48:34,500 –> 00:48:35,500
834
00:48:34,893 –> 00:48:37,053
kalen: do you mean when we stoped talking altogether,

835
00:48:37,440 –> 00:48:41,360
brent_peterson: well, you know, if if we look at this as being a communications problem and

836
00:48:41,440 –> 00:48:44,640
brent_peterson: the communication is just there, not telling us what’s going to be happening

837
00:48:44,800 –> 00:48:49,840
brent_peterson: in the future with Magento, they are there really in. in a sense, not really

838
00:48:49,820 –> 00:48:50,820
brent_peterson: telling us

839
00:48:51,680 –> 00:48:56,400
brent_peterson: where they where where it’s going right. We don’t know necessarily where

840
00:48:56,180 –> 00:48:57,180
brent_peterson: it’s going.

841
00:48:57,153 –> 00:48:58,153
kalen: Mhm, Mhm,

842
00:48:57,940 –> 00:48:58,940
843
00:49:00,320 –> 00:49:04,960
brent_peterson: and that is, uh, a concern that the community has, because they would like

844
00:49:05,200 –> 00:49:07,440
brent_peterson: people would like to know where it’s going,

845
00:49:07,953 –> 00:49:08,953
846
00:49:08,480 –> 00:49:13,520
brent_peterson: and even more than I, I think few people want to be included in that they

847
00:49:13,600 –> 00:49:16,400
brent_peterson: want to feel that. if it’s a community you want to feel like you’re included

848
00:49:16,220 –> 00:49:17,220
brent_peterson: in the community

849
00:49:18,560 –> 00:49:22,640
brent_peterson: And if you don’t know what’s happening and the decisions are being made and

850
00:49:21,473 –> 00:49:22,473
kalen: yeah, Mhm,

851
00:49:23,120 –> 00:49:25,120
brent_peterson: you don’t even know what’s going to be happening

852
00:49:25,633 –> 00:49:26,633
853
00:49:26,080 –> 00:49:29,360
brent_peterson: that you feel incredibly left out of the community.

854
00:49:26,080 –> 00:49:29,360
brent_peterson: that you feel incredibly left out of the community.

855
00:49:33,213 –> 00:49:38,173
kalen: yeah, yeah, I think that’ I think that maybe it that may be the issue at hand.

856
00:49:40,173 –> 00:49:41,933
kalen: I don’t know. I just missed pen mark,

857
00:49:42,673 –> 00:49:43,673
kalen: you know,

858
00:49:43,360 –> 00:49:44,640
brent_peterson: Well, we can do our Ne

859
00:49:44,313 –> 00:49:45,313
kalen: I think.

860
00:49:44,880 –> 00:49:46,480
brent_peterson: next episode on shopware.

861
00:49:47,233 –> 00:49:48,233
862
00:49:48,813 –> 00:49:52,973
kalen: I don’t know the first thing about shopper, other than I think it’s the next Magento,

863
00:49:53,980 –> 00:49:54,980
864
00:49:54,273 –> 00:49:55,273
kalen: but um,

865
00:49:56,173 –> 00:49:59,533
kalen: they seem to have some strong grass roots growth.

866
00:50:00,100 –> 00:50:01,100
brent_peterson: as long as you get

867
00:50:00,353 –> 00:50:01,353
868
00:50:00,960 –> 00:50:03,920
brent_peterson: the Germans involved and then the Dutch, the Dutch, and

869
00:50:03,673 –> 00:50:04,673
kalen: you won’t.

870
00:50:04,000 –> 00:50:06,000
brent_peterson: the Germans, that’s all we need.

871
00:50:05,533 –> 00:50:10,333
kalen: That’s a P. That’s a powerhouse Con. Are the Dutch getting into shopware? Is that is

872
00:50:10,320 –> 00:50:13,120
brent_peterson: I’m sure they are. look at all the people on hoofah and

873
00:50:10,353 –> 00:50:11,353
kalen: that starting to?

874
00:50:14,160 –> 00:50:15,600
brent_peterson: going to be in shop. Definitely,

875
00:50:15,933 –> 00:50:18,573
kalen: Oh? are Oh, Are they going to be in shopware? Is that happening?

876
00:50:19,360 –> 00:50:21,600
brent_peterson: I’m just speculating making stuff up

877
00:50:22,553 –> 00:50:23,553
kalen: Okay? Yeah, no,

878
00:50:23,500 –> 00:50:24,500
brent_peterson: fake news.

879
00:50:23,693 –> 00:50:26,413
kalen: it’s uh, vague news, vague news.

880
00:50:27,453 –> 00:50:32,573
kalen: Yeah, no, it’s its. Yeah, it’s crazy, but yes, I do. I just miss Ben. That’s all I

881
00:50:32,733 –> 00:50:36,653
kalen: wanted to say. That’s really. That’s really all there is to say. At this point

882
00:50:37,280 –> 00:50:38,560
brent_peterson: Well, why don’t we have a

883
00:50:37,853 –> 00:50:40,013
kalen: we need you, Ben. come back to us.

884
00:50:40,540 –> 00:50:41,540
brent_peterson: let’s do?

885
00:50:40,893 –> 00:50:46,653
kalen: What have you done? You’ve left us orphaned like orphan children in our time of need

886
00:50:47,853 –> 00:50:49,133
kalen: and we need you back here.

887
00:50:48,080 –> 00:50:50,880
brent_peterson: Why don’t we do? Let’s do an interview with Ben.

888
00:50:52,033 –> 00:50:53,033
kalen: It’s a great idea.

889
00:50:54,753 –> 00:50:55,753
kalen: No, I, just

890
00:50:55,120 –> 00:50:58,800
brent_peterson: drink and die Coke. Is that of whole thing fe a di cokee going there?

891
00:50:59,293 –> 00:51:00,973

00:51:01,120 –> 00:51:03,440
brent_peterson: Okay? that’s a big thing. A rum’s nice.

893
00:51:01,293 –> 00:51:06,173
kalen: uh yeah know do yeah know, because diyke. No diycoke isn’t very good for you, so

894
00:51:06,700 –> 00:51:07,700
brent_peterson: Okay, so you just

895
00:51:07,233 –> 00:51:08,233
896
00:51:07,840 –> 00:51:10,400
brent_peterson: do a die coke and rum. Leave out the died coke.

897
00:51:12,193 –> 00:51:13,193
kalen: more or less

898
00:51:13,553 –> 00:51:14,553
899
00:51:14,320 –> 00:51:16,880
brent_peterson: No ice. Just dump the rum in.

900
00:51:15,453 –> 00:51:19,933
kalen: I, actually, there’s actually ton e ice. I’m surprised you can’t hear all the ice in

901
00:51:20,013 –> 00:51:21,613
kalen: here. There’s quite a bit of ice.

902
00:51:20,560 –> 00:51:23,360
brent_peterson: No, your microphone is very good. pointed right at your mouth.

903
00:51:22,973 –> 00:51:24,893
kalen: Oh, that is good. Um.

904
00:51:26,333 –> 00:51:30,173
kalen: I, I would love to talk to Mann. I thought about that a lot. I just feel like

905
00:51:31,693 –> 00:51:35,853
kalen: he. prob. you know he probably can’t talk much of. See that it goes back to the same

906
00:51:36,013 –> 00:51:40,973
kalen: thing. I opened up our conversation with I. He probably can’t talk about much. you

907
00:51:41,053 –> 00:51:46,333
kalen: know, I’d imagine he probably doesn’t want to go rant about every internal problem

908
00:51:46,653 –> 00:51:49,853
kalen: There was. You know. He’s left Magento,

909
00:51:50,713 –> 00:51:51,713
kalen: so like

910
00:51:52,893 –> 00:51:58,413
kalen: I would love nothing more than to pick his brain for five hours straight, but I can’t

911
00:51:58,573 –> 00:52:03,693
kalen: imagine he wants to talk about that stuff publicly. you know, maybe privately, and

912
00:52:03,773 –> 00:52:06,653
kalen: then I’ll just record it on the download and publish it.

913
00:52:06,180 –> 00:52:07,180
brent_peterson: Yeah, Mhm.

914
00:52:06,740 –> 00:52:07,740
915
00:52:07,073 –> 00:52:08,073
kalen: You know.

916
00:52:07,440 –> 00:52:12,400
brent_peterson: you stick your your your of your phone on record in your pocket, so it’ll

917
00:52:12,340 –> 00:52:13,340
brent_peterson: just be her

918
00:52:14,020 –> 00:52:15,020
919
00:52:15,033 –> 00:52:16,033
920
00:52:16,220 –> 00:52:17,220
brent_peterson: You said

921
00:52:16,833 –> 00:52:17,833
kalen: that’s the ticket.

922
00:52:17,120 –> 00:52:21,440
brent_peterson: what I’ve heard of her. Oh, my gosh, I can’t believe that, Ben.

923
00:52:25,760 –> 00:52:26,960
brent_peterson: Really, that really happened.

924
00:52:28,240 –> 00:52:31,760
brent_peterson: See, there you go. I. I, we could do the interview ourselves and E, we

925
00:52:31,313 –> 00:52:32,313
926
00:52:31,740 –> 00:52:32,740
brent_peterson: could just pretend

927
00:52:33,613 –> 00:52:38,653
kalen: Yeah, that’s it there. That’s the other option. We could just do a mock interview.

928
00:52:38,893 –> 00:52:42,733
kalen: You, you be badd Mark, so be, you do an amazing muffle. The benmarks,

929
00:52:42,580 –> 00:52:43,580
930
00:52:42,973 –> 00:52:44,573
kalen: I will say, and

931
00:52:44,640 –> 00:52:46,880
brent_peterson: Absolutely lots of practice.

kalen: um, and I’ll be me, You know. Yeah,

933
00:52:49,773 –> 00:52:52,973
kalen: um, and we could probably do a pretty, a pretty solid job.

934
00:52:54,500 –> 00:52:55,500
935
00:52:56,033 –> 00:52:57,033
936
00:52:58,413 –> 00:53:01,213
kalen: well, I think we’ve solved everything personally. I

937
00:53:01,260 –> 00:53:02,260
brent_peterson: yeah, we’ve burnt.

938
00:53:01,293 –> 00:53:02,333

00:53:03,433 –> 00:53:04,433
kalen: you know is

940
00:53:03,600 –> 00:53:06,080
brent_peterson: We’ve burned through fifty three minutes of solving.

941
00:53:03,600 –> 00:53:06,080
brent_peterson: We’ve burned through fifty three minutes of solving.

942
00:53:07,533 –> 00:53:10,173
kalen: all they need to do is hit play on this bad boy

943
00:53:11,293 –> 00:53:17,293
kalen: and listen to everything we say, Do everything we say and it’s all solved. You know.

00:53:23,933 –> 00:53:28,733
kalen: a hundred percent. Yeah, we’re going to hand deliver this to him on his doorstep in a

948
00:53:28,893 –> 00:53:30,493

00:53:56,500 –> 00:53:57,500
957
00:53:56,673 –> 00:53:57,673

brent_peterson: I’ve been told that,

973
00:54:37,293 –> 00:54:40,973
kalen: Just when I think I have you figured out, you throw me for a loop. you know,

974
00:54:40,820 –> 00:54:41,820
975
00:54:42,640 –> 00:54:47,280
