    @biwanczuk Do you know if you'll add support for Durable Object Facets in the future? I think that's the main missing piece to get Cloudflare OS running on celld.

    I thought Cloudflare had solved our scalability problem. It hadn't. We were building a centralized data-annotation platform. The backend was running on the Cloudflare stack, and we had a CDN in front of our assets. So when I looked at the architecture, my thinking was pretty simple:=> Cloudflare + CDN → we're good. At least until we started testing it. Someone would add an annotation to an image,or make a small modification to an existing label,Nothing particularly expensive-looking,But every-modification generated a new pre-signed URL The CDN would cache the image, right? Then we started seeing the system struggle with barely ~10 users. We were making the CDN's job almost useless. Every time the image changed, we generated a new pre-signed URL. From the CDN's perspective: new URL -> new resource -> cache miss ->render/fetch the image again. And image rendering itself isn't cheap either. So a seemingly tiny action “modifying an image annotation” could trigger expensive image processing and effectively bypass the caching advantage we thought we had. p.s - Scalability isn't just about choosing infrastructure that scales. You can put the most scalable infrastructure in front of your application and still build a system that falls over with 10 users.

    I used Codex to fix an issue of one of our websites It was slow to respond and Codex figured out it was a DNS config issue in Cloudflare to our AWS ALB Codex is a really good sysadmin

    "Using an in-house bot on an in-house browser to buy a car from the same founder’s company isn’t an AI revolution—it’s an internal API test wrapped in marketing hype." "Call me when Grok bypasses three Cloudflare Captchas, handles 3D Secure verification, and successfully orders an out-of-stock item on a broken Shopify site without special whitelisting."

    Cloudflare sneezes and a third of the internet coughs, your app included. You can't stop it, but you can tell users it's upstream in seconds instead of fielding a support pile-up.

    @levelsio It's a bad joke. And if you post online complaints about your site going down for no reason, you get threatening letters from La Liga accusing you of piracy just for using Cloudflare. I got one myself, clearly meant to scare me.

    OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Microsoft, AWS, Oracle and more than 100 organizations issued an coordinated warning: We may have only months to prepare for a fundamental change in cyber warfare. They call it the "Defender's Window." Today, a sophisticated cyber operation still requires skilled people spending hours, days or weeks researching a target, finding vulnerabilities, testing ways in, adapting when something fails and moving deeper into a network. AI agents can increasingly perform parts of that process autonomously. Now imagine the same capability replicated thousands of times. An attacker no longer has to choose carefully which hospital, power company, government agency or corporation is worth spending a team on. Agents can probe thousands simultaneously, continuously searching for weak credentials, unpatched systems, vulnerable code and exploitable configurations. The marginal cost of attacking the next organization begins approaching zero. That is the change these companies are worried about and there is a reason the warning is coming now. OpenAI recently described a real-world cyber incident as a "watershed moment" after AI agents autonomously penetrated research infrastructure and then infrastructure belonging to another company, chaining previously unknown vulnerabilities with credentials exposed online. OpenAI's conclusion: "We underestimated the real-world cyber capabilities of our AI models." Until now, frontier AI companies have had one important advantage: the strongest cyber capabilities could be given first to trusted defenders while access remained restricted for everyone else. But that advantage may be temporary. OpenAI says increasingly capable open-weight models are only months behind the frontier. Once comparable capabilities become widely available, controlling who can use them becomes dramatically harder. Hence the window. The goal is not to stop AI from becoming capable at cybersecurity, but to make defenders AI-native first. Let AI continuously audit software, hunt vulnerabilities, patch weaknesses, detect intrusions and attack-test critical systems before adversaries can automate the same process against them. OpenAI and Anthropic are competitors. AWS, Google, Microsoft and Oracle compete for the same cloud infrastructure. CrowdStrike, Cloudflare, Palo Alto Networks, Cisco and others compete across cybersecurity. Yet they are converging on the same conclusion: AI is about to make sophisticated cyber capability dramatically cheaper and more scalable. The question is whether defense can industrialize faster than offense. For perhaps a short period, it still can. That is the Defender's Window.

    @SheltonLouisGT it's possible down the line. it's more responsible to put this out first as an opt-in to make sure there's no behavioral drift or unexpected issues before seriously thinking about default-on. main issues: 👉 it requires `new Function()` which is blocked by many Content Security Policies (incl the one used by Cloudflare Workers) 👉 bundle size — the compiler adds about 7kb gzipped. may be worth it in regular Zod (though obviously not Zod Mini) in any case, it's more responsible to put this out first as an opt-in to make sure there's no behavioral drift or unexpected issues before seriously thinking about default-on. In the meantime, it's easy enough to use the side-effect import to enable compilation project-wide

    By the definition everyone seems to be using today, isn't any managed infra service a neocloud? Is Snowflake a neocloud? Databricks? Cloudflare? IMO calling anything that runs on GPUs a neocloud is kind of bizarre.

    Why I think there needs to be some sort of control on social media. So... Stremio launched in 2015. Torrentio around 2020. Nothing "just died in Sofia" this week. And the two Bulgarians didn't build Torrentio. Different developer and completely unaffiliated. These two are two completely unrelated projects mixed into one origin story. "MIT License. 100% Opensource." Stremio's core is MIT. Its web client is GPL-2.0. Torrentio itself is CLOSED SOURCE. The part actually doing the scraping isn't on GitHub at all. Everyone can check by themselves. "No central server to seize." Torrentio IS a central server. A hosted service on somebody's VPS. Your client queries it and when it drops, it drops for everyone at once, and it has, repeatedly. "No account. No subscription." Reliable 4K means Real-Debrid or AllDebrid. That's an account and that's a monthly fee. Raw P2P is where the buffering lives. "Netflix cannot shut this down." They don't have to. Italian courts already forced Cloudflare to block torrent sites at the DNS layer. A Spanish court ordered NordVPN and Proton to block streams. RARBG, KAT are all seized, you simply attack the layer below, not the app - this is how these are handled. Now the biggest problem with this post is torrenting UPLOADS. To all you noobs cheaping out on Netflix sub and think this is actually a solution. Your IP is visible to every peer in the swarm. That's the enforcement surface and that's the actual risk that nobody mentions at all. The formula for these posts: Half of what is wrote here is checkable in five minutes. Goddamn people are stupid.

    Computer use in Grok @Bot is quite good, but extremely slow. It seems to take about 30 seconds for each click. @Cloudflare provides a Grok Bot plugin connector, but it's read only. So I asked Grok Bot to add an email address that I can use to send email from my domain. It asked me to "take over" so I could enter my credentials and two-factor authentication. Then it proceeded to do exactly what I asked! The cool thing is that you can watch each step of the way and interrupt if it starts doing something you don't want. This entire process probably took 20 minutes, but would be MUCH faster if Cloudflare added native plugin support for these changes.

    @hieuSSR @algoceo @Cloudflare True, agreed. But when I read it, I felt more related to my problem when I read “unlimited free custom emails”. And when I read “gmail alternative”, my head just told me “no way”. Idk why. Need more UX study on it maybe. Anyway, glad you made this!

    @Cloudflare fell 13% in April because Anthropic shipped a cyber model. It’s up 57% since. Turns out AI doesn’t replace the pipes. It floods them. Next big $NET drop won’t come from an AI launch - it’ll come from an outage.

    ive moved entirely off cc to devin, but losing localhost sucks but.. turns out i can still get it devin's vm tunnels its dev server to a URL using @Cloudflare quick tunnel it gives me the url and i get a live UI of the wip code dont even need to commit or deploy incredible

    7. $NET - Cloudflare The network sitting in front of the internet. Q2 revenue $696.1 million, up 36%. Cloudflare's CTO has said they are already using GPT-5.5 in internal defensive workflows. Signed the letter. Daybreak partner. When the letter says "fix weaknesses that have accumulated for years," a lot of those weaknesses are on the edge.

    Cloudflare has answered it twice. 2023: revoked client certs honoured on resumption. Disabled it, built a correct fix for revocation, re-enabled. 2025: a *scope* failure the fix was never meant to cover. Off again. Still off. A correct fix that does not generalise.
