  I gave her a Claude Pro referral link, and she built it all using their cloud hosted compute. Cloudflare free-tier, Github for versioning. Never once touched her laptop. Everything is a web app on her Pixel. She's officially Claude-pilled.

  This is 100% accurate, I remembered when I was trying to buy domain, I thought Cloudflare website was down, I had to wait for the next day, same issue, luckily, I switched to MTN and Cloudflare loaded perfectly

  @r3c0nc1l3r Nice. I will have to look into that. I almost never get to work directly with Cloudflare so I'm not as familiar with its offerings as I should be.

  @nickgraynews @bot Have you had any issues with your grokbot hitting Cloudflare captchas? Mine seems to get stuck quite frequently and then just gives up without telling me after hitting a Cloudflare captcha.

  @Cloudflare We ran 38 buyer prompts across three engines against our own products and published the losses. Crawler access was the cheap fix. The expensive lesson: answers named entities with deep third-party records, not the best pages. Measurement first is the right call.

  @SimonHoiberg AWS must be the service with the worst UX ever that still manages to make huge loads of money. Just venturing to learn their services and getting to work with them is an odyssey by the itself. Cloudfront was charging me 700$/mo until I learned Cloudflare does the same for free

  Openrouter is easily one of my favourite and most innovative non-foundation-lab AI companies. and when it got acquired for $8B, it felt like a very well-deserved outcome. but you might still think: $8b for a model router? one API → every model useful sure but increasingly commoditised vercel has AI gateway. cloudflare has AI gateway. we have a bunch of Indian versions of the same idea too. but before putting @OpenRouter in the same bucket as every other AI gateway, look at what they actually built for the ecosystem: > auto exacto: continuously measure which provider is actually running the same model best, then move traffic there automatically > fusion: turn disagreement between multiple frontier models into a signal, then use a judge to find consensus, contradictions and blind spots before producing the final answer. > advisor + subagent: let models dynamically escalate hard work to smarter models or delegate easy work to cheaper ones and there’s a bunch more i haven’t even included. openrouter started with “one API for every model” what they built on top of that is much more interesting.

  Cloudflare does not cache your HTML by default. You can be paying for Cloudflare and still have none of your HTML cached there. Would you be able to tell this is your case? By default Cloudflare caches by file extension, not by content type. CSS, JS, images: yes. The HTML document, the thing PHP and the database assemble: not by default. Without an explicit rule, every page view still goes to the origin. I have seen more than one setup where "we have a CDN" meant the logo loads from the edge of the network and everything else works exactly as before. Check the cf-cache-status header. If an HTML document comes back as DYNAMIC, the edge is not caching it at all. What I also hear on calls sometimes are two words traded as if they were two products: CDN and edge. They are not two products. It is the same few hundred machines Cloudflare keeps around the world, and the two names come from different decades. CDN says what the thing does, deliver content. Edge says where it is located, at the far end of the network. For twenty years those were words for the same servers, and then the industry started using edge for the code you can run on them. Nobody planned that, so it is not on you if the two names blur together. What is different is not the name but the job you give those machines. Handing out copies of files, your images, CSS and JS, comes with the account. No decisions, it's just simple distribution, working from the moment you point your domain at them. The other job is running your logic up there: assembling and caching whole HTML pages, telling a logged-in visitor from an anonymous one, holding the product page while letting the basket through untouched. It's not on by default because it needs rules: what may be stored, for whom, for how long, and what wipes it. And you are the one who knows those rules. And the principle that ties this whole series together: cache layers are a cascade, not a set of independent switches. The lower layers have to hit before anything propagates up and reaches the edge. Getting that order right is messy work, and it is the reason a site feels smooth when someone has done it. So before you add another layer, you should be able to say three things about it in plain words. What it stores: files, whole pages, or answers from the database. Who is allowed to get the same copy: everyone, or does a logged-in visitor need their own. And what removes that copy when the content changes, plus who is able to trigger it. If any of the three is a shrug, you probably have something messed up and don't know it yet. We created a great guide to understanding caching specifically for WordPress. Link in comment

  @Cloudflare @awscloud genuinely curious how tax/vat treatment works when your buyer is an anonymous agent wallet with no jurisdiction attached to it, feels like the accounting problem is way behind the payment rail problem right now

  bot traffic against wordpress has gotten absurd. xmlrpc.php, wp-login.php, /wp-json/wp/v2/users, on loop, new ASN every hour. fail2ban is post-hoc, so by the time it bans an IP php-fpm already burned a worker on it. cloudflare in front feels mandatory now, and i hate that.

  @Cloudflare Removing the dedicated proxy/translation layer is more meaningful than it sounds. Every extra hop in a gRPC path adds another place for connection state, retries and observability to get weird. Native edge support simplifies both latency and failure domains.

  To fix this issue, at least what I did then, either of these methods works perfectly. 1: Download Cloudflare WARP on your phone or laptop. It works like a lightweight VPN by routing your internet traffic through Cloudflare, so you should be good to go. 2: Go to your Airtel Wi-Fi login page, open Settings, and change the Primary DNS to 1.1.1.1 and Secondary DNS to 1.0.0.1 I used these settings on my Airtel ODU and never had any issues accessing websites.

  changelog v0.98.0: replaced the onboarding (which previously required you to manually type in your Cloudflare account ID and create an API key and select permissions one by one) with "login with Cloudflare," which creates the API key and selects the right permission for you. a few steps less to get started. npm i -g kimiflare

  The MIT professor who crashed 10 percent of the internet at 22 posts the free course that runs every AWS outage, every Uber ping, and every Slack notification on earth. MIT charges $85,000 a year to sit in that classroom. He posted every lecture to MIT OpenCourseWare for nothing. Millions have opened lecture one. Almost no engineer has finished all twenty. His name is Robert Morris. He is a professor at MIT CSAIL and one of the four cofounders of Y Combinator, the seed fund behind Airbnb, Dropbox, Stripe, Reddit, and Coinbase. In November 1988 he was a 22-year-old Cornell graduate student. He released a small program that was supposed to count the computers on the internet. It replicated so fast it crashed roughly ten percent of every machine online, and made him the first person ever convicted under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act. He got three years probation, 400 hours of community service, and a $10,050 fine. Ten years later he cofounded the online store Viaweb with Paul Graham and sold it to Yahoo for $49 million. Seven years after that he cofounded Y Combinator with the same partner. Its portfolio is now worth over $600 billion. The clip in this video is one lecture from MIT 6.824 Distributed Systems, filmed at MIT and posted for free. The words on the board behind him are fault tolerance, availability, recoverability. Those three words decide whether Instagram loads when you open it, whether your Uber arrives, and whether your paycheck hits your account on the first of the month. Morris covers the entire logic of distributed systems in twenty lectures. Everything fails, all the time. A single computer fails once every few years. Ten thousand computers fail hundreds of times a day. The only design that survives is one that assumes failure is normal. Every retail user cursing a spinning wheel is looking at the wrong problem. The miracle is that most of the time it does not spin. Availability beats consistency. You cannot always have both. When the network splits, a system either serves stale data or refuses to serve at all. Amazon picks stale. Your bank picks nothing. Every user who screams at the Slack status page wants Amazon's answer. Every user who screams at a double charge wants the bank's. Replicate everything, trust nothing. Data in one place disappears when that place burns. Data in three places survives two fires. Every photo you have ever taken on an iPhone lives on three continents already. iCloud, Google Photos, and Dropbox are built off the exact lecture on the board. Concurrency is where bugs live. One user at a time is easy. A million users at the same second is not. Race conditions, double spends, lost messages, ghost bookings. Every airline that oversold your flight, every trading app that ate your order, every Ticketmaster that showed you a seat already gone, is a concurrency bug Morris warned about. Partial failure is worse than full failure. A dead server is easy. A slow server that answers half the time is a nightmare. It fools every retry, wastes every resource, and confuses every operator. Every "is it down or is it just me" Twitter search you have ever run is Morris's third slide. Every senior engineer at AWS, Google, and Meta has watched this course. Every startup that raised a Series A in cloud infrastructure hired an alumnus of 6.824. Every AI company training a trillion-parameter model on a cluster is running the same lecture in production. "A distributed system is one in which the failure of a computer you didn't even know existed can render your own computer unusable." That is Leslie Lamport, the Turing Award winner Morris quotes at the opening of 6.824. It is the exact sentence that explains why your Slack goes down when a data center in Virginia loses power. The full course is free on MIT OpenCourseWare. The lecture notes are on Morris's website. Every equation on the board fits on one screen of code. Almost every senior engineer at AWS, Google, Cloudflare, and Meta has watched 6.824. Almost no founder promising 99.99 percent uptime on their pitch deck has opened lecture one. That is the entire moat. The course is free. The willingness to sit through twenty lectures on partial failure before uploading your money to a payment app, storing your photos in the cloud, or handing your health records to a portal is a much rarer commodity than the confidence to click without them.
