    @ReisRyougi oh wow i've never done backend stuff good luck with that,, and i had tailscale set up on mine for a while which was nice but i ended up using cloudflare zero trust so i could use a custom domain and share services to people without them needing to install anything on their end

    @ShimituMusic @NamecheapCEO Why will you take legal action? Since I started using Namecheap this is the first time their server went down. Big companies like Facebook, Cloudflare, even Google has gone down before so let’s take it easy with Namecheap.

    NEAR is down 92% from its 2022 ath and just cut block times to 200ms with SPICE. Cloudflare is now handing AI agents stablecoin wallets, the exact use case $NEAR built chain abstraction for. Price hasn't caught up to that yet.

    @naoufal_elh @mauruschatm @bot Use those Starlink IPs if you have to, to get around cloudflare & google's IP blocks. Change the search engine if google captcha issue can't be resolved for search.

    1. google cloud just set 2029 as its target for full post-quantum readiness 2. google has already protected its own internal communications with PQC since 2022 3. microsoft wants its products and services transitioned by 2033 4. apple already runs quantum-safe encryption in imessage for every iphone 5. signal already runs quantum-safe key agreement 6. cloudflare has been running post-quantum key exchange since 2022 7. AWS is now rolling PQC into core infrastructure 8. the white house already ordered federal agencies to migrate to PQC by 2030 9. UK told organizations to plan for complete PQC migration by 2035 10. the NSA set the deadline for full PQC migration as 2035 is there something they know that we don't know?

    @FreedomFries93 @joshmanders @PlanetScale Yeah, I used AWS in the past and honestly it wasn't that bad once you get past the setup. My point is not about comparing cloudflare to AWS. My point is the confusion in product offering within cloudflare itself

    Tried to consolidate 2 Google workspaces into 1 with an alias email of my mother But without deleting the old ones, just renamed the email of the workspace Then I realized Stripe and Cloudflare used Google social login Also, noticed how weak AI was. 10x same GAM permissions etc

    PAY $0* FOR ALL SUBSCRIPTIONS 😳 Most people don’t realize how quickly small monthly payments add up. ChatGPT — $20/mo Claude — $20/mo Netflix — $23/mo Spotify — $12/mo Notion — $10/mo Adobe — $60/mo Perplexity — $20/mo Cursor — $20/mo That’s roughly $185/month. $2,220/year. And that’s before the subscriptions you forgot you’re even paying for. The good news? You don’t always have to pay the full price. Here are 7 ways to cut your subscription bill: 1. Check for retention offers Before canceling, start the cancellation process. Some services may offer discounts, free months or cheaper plans to keep you. It won’t always work, but checking costs nothing. 2. Use student pricing If you’re eligible, check student plans for services like GitHub, Adobe, Spotify, Notion, YouTube Premium, Google AI and Perplexity. Some require university verification. 3. Compare annual pricing If you know you’ll use something for a year, compare annual vs monthly billing. $20 × 12 = $240. If the annual plan is $200, you save $40. Just don’t buy annual plans for tools you barely use. 4. Check regional pricing Prices can vary by country. If your country has local pricing, make sure you’re getting the price you’re legitimately entitled to. Don’t use fake locations or payment details to bypass restrictions. 5. Replace what you barely use Premiere Pro → DaVinci Resolve Microsoft Office → Google Docs 1Password → Bitwarden Notion Plus → Notion Free / Obsidian Canva Pro → Canva Free Paid local AI → Ollama / LM Studio You don’t need to replace everything. Just stop paying for features you barely use. 6. Stop subscribing to every AI tool You probably don’t need ChatGPT + Claude + Gemini + Perplexity + multiple coding tools. Try free options first: Google AI Studio Hugging Face OpenRouter GitHub Models Cerebras Cloudflare Workers AI Ollama LM Studio Upgrade when you actually need the extra limits or features. 7. Downgrade before canceling Sometimes you don’t need to cancel. You just need a cheaper plan. $20 → $10/month = $120 saved per year. Do that across five subscriptions and you save $600/year. Now look at that $185/month stack again. Cut a few unnecessary subscriptions, downgrade others, use legitimate discounts and replace what you can. Even a 40% reduction saves roughly $888/year. The biggest mistake is treating subscriptions like fixed expenses. Bookmark this and audit your subscriptions this weekend.

    @Cloudflare Excellent reminder that anomaly ≠ incident. A 30% traffic drop was a real signal, but the root cause was human behavior. Monitoring should correlate telemetry with deploys, calendars and regional events before paging. Detection without context becomes noise.

    Google is slowly killing the internet to benefit its own AI. forr years, the deal was simple: you let Google find your website, and Google sends people to you. But AI changes that. Google can now take information from your site, answer the question itself, and keep the user on Google. and the same bot Google uses for Search also helps feed its AI. Cloudflare CEO Matthew Prince has been calling this out. publishers can't simply block Google's AI without risking their search rankings. The simple fix is two separate bots. - One for Search: Googlebot - One for AI: Google Extended/Gemini and Google already sends 4.8x more traffic than ChatGPT. the internet's biggest traffic source is now competing with the websites it depends on tbf who uses Google in 2026?

    @schmedu_ @johnnycommits @supabase Yeah I know. As someone how is building their own startup I know there is a balance to be found here. But I think the difference for supabase becomes in the type of user they are targeting. A hobby user will probably never pay for a subscription if they can get the same thing if not better on cloudflare. So in their case the free tier does not make much sense I think.

    Holy. Anthropic is reportedly projecting $190B-$200B in revenue by 2028. That is more than 4x its $47B revenue run rate in May. And Wall Street is already looking that far ahead to help value the IPO. Bankers and investors are using forward revenue multiples, with Palantir, Cloudflare and SpaceX among the reference points. Anthropic went from a ~$9B run rate at the end of 2025 to >$47B by May. It is also projecting at least $10.9B of Q2 revenue and is on track for its first quarterly operating profit at $559M. $200 billion revenue in 2028. Absolutely freaking insane growth if they can actually pull this off.

    GM, Fam, Happy Saturday! Today I’m bringing you my market thoughts 💭 I came to this conclusion after scrolling through X this week and seeing the same news over and over again… 👀 Cloudflare just gave AI Agents a wallet, MetaMask launched Agent Wallet, and #Coinbase is moving in the same direction. Three major players, all within practically the same week. At first, I thought it was a coincidence. But three in a row? I don’t think that’s a coincidence anymore. I think it’s a clear signal. 🤔 Honestly, my reaction was pretty strange. It felt like 🚄 “watching a train start accelerating while everyone jumps on, and no one stops to check whether the tracks are even finished.” AI Agents can now spend, trade, and execute tasks on their own. But the question that kept coming back to me was: Who can actually prove what this Agent is? What did it do last time? Can you really trust your own Agent? 🔐 Without reliable identity and memory, even the smartest Agent is just a ghost employee with no track record. No matter how capable it is, you still wouldn’t trust it with anything important. And I don’t think I’m the only one who sees it this way. Most people are too busy jumping on the train to look back and check the tracks. That’s why I want to highlight that @DeAgentAI has been solving exactly this from day one: Identity, Continuity, Consensus. These aren’t just three features. They’re the foundation. The tracks need to be solid before the train can go the distance. If we build the AI infrastructure correctly, the buildings can keep rising. 🌇 #AIAgent #DeAgentAI 💡 What do you guys think?

    @_Chrysaetos_ @JoeMerrick @Viking_Hotline I think that might be the smallest problem. You still need to maintain the service to work. And that with the limitations of the 3ds system in mind. You cant just crank it to tls1.3 and slap cloudflare protection on because the 3ds likely can't work with that.

    @thsottiaux, impressive career trajectory: from engineer and Head of Core Products to Codex’s questionable RESET MASCOT on X. I pay $200 a month for this product. At that price, I should not begin every workday wondering whether Codex still remembers my settings, whether my tools remain authenticated, which model it silently selected, or when my usage will reset. Right now, the limits feel governed by the mating cycles of Venusian Quarktaschen, your X posting schedule, and whether a sack of rice failed to fall over in China. This morning’s automatic migration from Codex 26.803.61601 to ChatGPT 26.810.41047 reopened the same pinned task as Luna/Medium, although the unchanged config explicitly specified Sol/Ultra. Collaboration Mode overrode the user’s choice. At the same time, all four Cloudflare MCP connections demanded reauthorization. This was not user error. YOUR product FAILED to preserve workflow continuity! But you grin, press RESET, and celebrate another colourful plaster on X. A quota reset does not fix GPT-5.6 turning a ten-line change into a luxury operating system just to print “Hello World.” It does not fix ignored instructions, needless complexity, unstable defaults, or the hours wasted checking whether yesterday’s working setup still works today. Resetting access to a model producing garbage merely gives me more garbage. aybefor you its "Pretty garbage" but fact is, it's still garbage. Your job is product leadership, not social-media pantomime. I do not need another colourful feature, another reset, or another cheerful workaround. I need a professional tool that preserves configuration, authentication and sessions; uses the model I selected; respects scope; and produces the smallest correct solution. Reliability is not a bonus feature at $200 a month. It is the product! So work on it!

    The agent economy is coming and with it, AI agents will increasingly rely on protocols like x402 to make autonomous payments. But who will protect those agents from wallet drainers, malicious contracts, and other Web3 threats? RootCrak is building the security infrastructure for this new economy. Our technology continuously protects users today, and soon, AI agents will have the same layer of protection. Autonomous agents need autonomous security. @base @Cloudflare we are here to help.

    Cloudflare announced programmable wallets built for AI agents, with preset spending limits and merchant restrictions in the design. Nothing has shipped yet. Right now you can reserve a handle. Funded account wallets, virtual wallets and programmable agent spending are all due in the coming months. Read the feature list again, because it is a permission model, not a payments product. The moment you let an autonomous agent buy things, you inherit a problem crypto has been failing at in public for years. How do you grant a program the ability to spend without granting it the ability to spend everything? DeFi's answer was token approvals. The result is a very long list of drained wallets where nothing was hacked at all. Someone approved unlimited spending to a contract years ago and forgot. So Cloudflare's version is delegated authority with a cap and an allowlist, plus anomalous-spending alerts that escalate to a human. Sensible. Also the bare minimum. And these are stablecoin wallets settling over x402, so this isn't a payments industry learning from crypto's mistakes. It is crypto. The layer above it is still wide open. An agent that can be talked into a purchase by hidden text on a web page is still an agent that can be talked into a purchase. Caps limit the blast radius. An anomaly alert only fires once the spending already looks strange. Neither one touches the trigger. Follow @dnagabut if you like your tech news with the catch included.

    A cold email got him a Cloudflare interview, no leetcode anywhere First round was a Lead Staff Engineer from the AI Workers team going deep on rooflining, batch size tradeoffs, p50 against p99, TTFT, and where a pipeline actually bottlenecks He had all of it from optimising rerankers and embedding models on in-house GPUs He still did not get the role, because encoder-only stacks skip attention and KV cache, so vLLM and SGLang never showed up in his day job 44 to 58 LPA, lost to a gap he can name in one sentence, which is what makes the writeup worth reading
