willjp··on Salt Bugs Allow Full RCE as Root on Cloud Servers
This really ruined my night :(. Good luck to everyone out there. Keep calm and replace all your ssh keys.

For anyone else that's affected, people have been tracking it within a github issue:

willjp··on DevDegree: Work at Shopify and get a free CS degree in parallel
There are two universities involved: Carleton (Ottawa, Ontario, Canada) and York (Toronto, Ontario, Canada).

You must apply and qualify for the university degree, in addition to being selected by shoppify themselves. If I remember correctly when I asked about it, the University also had some say in the selection process.

When I looked into it, the number of accepted was quite low (I believe less than 15 per year), which to me indicates they are quite selective.

The people I met were exceptionally friendly, and genuine. It seems like a really excellent place to work, at least from the outside.
