  This is not just a blockchain story either. @NIST finalized three post-quantum standards in 2024. @Cloudflare says more than two-thirds of TLS traffic through its network now uses post-quantum key exchange. The migration has already started.

  @astuyve @boristane Not to get too into the weeds but the concern is where the trace context gets inherited and where we check the users tracing configuration. Before a request ever goes to the Workers runtime there's our FL2 (essentially the Cloudflare webserver) that actually accepts the http connection for various reasons we want that part that isn't entirely related to Workers to be aware of tracing so we can do cool things in the future. This entails creating a way for FL2 to fetch the user's tracing config (sampling, if they want to enable propogation, etc), passing that context through FL2, passing it to the Workers runtime, and then when the Worker does a fetch we need to pass it back through to FL2 so we can potentially attach the context header. None of this is strictly about just parsing that trace context header, more about threading configuration and ceoss-service communication.

  @Hussain_Joe @_ceifa Well, the key is its pretty much managed, just not e2e. Like it's Cloudflare Workers + pipelines + queues -> CH cloud. All managed services! Just the raw volume makes most "pure" managed analytics providers extremely prohibitive -- like prob 10x the cost at least. Of course, there's other options that are really self hosted that are less analytics-focused... or things that rely more on object storage as the source of truth (like R2 SQL, which would actually prob be cheaper) But I've put in maybe 10 hours of necessary maitenance in the last year, occasionally the analyst who uses the system will ping me for questions/advice etc -- but raw infra/system wise, like 0 issues!

  @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.

  The Dead Internet Theory was a conspiracy. The idea that the internet is no longer human. That bots and AI have quietly replaced real people. It started on anonymous message boards in 2019. Most people dismissed it. Stanford, Imperial College London, and the Internet Archive just measured it. They used the Wayback Machine to scan every new website published between 2022 and 2025. Thirty-three months of the internet, captured and classified. They applied one of the most advanced AI text detectors in the world to every page. 35.3% of all newly published websites were AI-generated or AI-assisted. 17.6% were completely AI-generated. No human involvement at all. In late 2022, before ChatGPT launched, that number was zero. In three years, more than a third of the new internet became synthetic. Not over decades. Not over a generation. Three years. Then they measured what that is doing to the internet itself. Semantic diversity is falling. The range of ideas, perspectives, and ways of saying things is narrowing. As AI content increases, the internet sounds more and more like one voice. Because it is one voice. The same models producing the same patterns across millions of pages. Positive sentiment is rising. Everything sounds upbeat. Polished. Confident. Helpful. The internet is getting friendlier while getting emptier. The tone improves as the substance disappears. The lead researcher, Jonáš Doležal at Imperial College London, said this to 404 Media: "I find the sheer speed of the AI takeover of the web quite staggering. After decades of humans shaping it, a significant portion of the internet has become defined by AI in just three years." Separately, Cloudflare reported that nearly a third of all internet traffic now comes from bots. Imperva reported that automated traffic surpassed human traffic for the first time in 2024. If you read my previous threads on Model Collapse and Retrieval Collapse, this is the final chapter. Model Collapse showed that AI trained on AI gets dumber. Retrieval Collapse showed that search engines indexing AI content get emptier. This paper shows the source of both problems. The internet itself is being replaced. The researchers are now working with the Internet Archive to build a live monitoring tool. A real-time tracker of how much of the internet is human and how much is not. The fact that we need a tool to measure how much of the internet is still real is the finding.

  @ultrasxiv Fair on bandwidth being a real cost, but the 2GB figure is a long way out. Cheapest DO droplet includes 500GB+ outbound, Hetzner 20TB+. At 600-700GB household use you’re a pound or two over on DO, zero on Hetzner. Stays around the base £4-5 for most, not £300. And “un-bannable” was the precise word, not hyperbole. A commercial VPN is bannable because it’s a named brand with known IPs, a company that can be pressured or blocked. That’s the weakness. Self-hosting removes the target entirely. There’s no technical category called “a VPS used as a VPN.” It’s a rented server running standard encryption (WireGuard, IPsec), the same protocols carrying every bank settlement, ATM link and corporate tunnel on earth. To ban it you’d have to block those protocols (killing Visa, every corporate VPN, all remote work) or blacklist the datacentre IP ranges (AWS, Hetzner, OVH) that host the actual internet: payment gateways, banking backends, Stripe, Cloudflare, gov services. You can’t separate “server someone might tunnel through” from “server running the shop you’re buying from.” The second and third-order effects would cripple e-commerce, open banking and logistics, all riding the same cloud backbone. That’s the sovereignty point. You can ban a brand. You can’t ban the capability of renting a server and encrypting your own traffic, not without taking modern commerce down with it.

  @dinasaur_404 @Cloudflare Yes looking for billing cap. How do you test dynamic workers as well as dynamic workflows in local dev? We had a disastrous outcome of losing $800 because the deployed code ran into infinite loop using dynamic workflow. Support team was not at all helpful.

  Special Situations 🌐 Research Newsletter (Jay) (@SpecialSitsNews) reported 30 minutes ago

  New Activist Name: Shares of $MTN are trading up 13% at $141.65 on Thursday, rebounding sharply from their 52-week low of $118.51 hit earlier this year, as the Semafor scoop circulates across trading desks. The intraday move lifts the company's market cap to roughly $5.05 billion. According to Semafor, Vail's bankers are tasked with assessing vulnerabilities across a broad front: labor unrest, weather-related demand swings, and the specific pressure campaign being waged by Prince, who co-founded Cloudflare (NET). Prince told a local Colorado publication in June 2026 that he is willing to invest $500 million in Park City Mountain Resort and admitted he has already fielded calls from activist investors probing Vail's weaknesses. His preferred blueprint would see Vail pivot to an asset-light model, acting as a partnership facilitator rather than a direct mountain owner, a structure that would almost certainly require carving up the company's core real-estate holdings. The timing is awkward for management. Vail reported fiscal Q3 2026 earnings per share of $8.81, missing the consensus estimate of $9.09 by 3.1%, while revenue of $1.21 billion came in roughly $10 million below forecasts. The company subsequently cut its fiscal 2026 net income guidance to a range of $128 million to $162 million and trimmed Resort Reported EBITDA guidance to $735$755 million, down from the prior range of $745$775 million. Net debt has climbed to $2.65 billion from $2.24 billion a year earlier, pushing net leverage to 3.5x trailing twelve-month EBITDA as of April 30, 2026, while cash on hand stood at $371.4 million. Into that environment, the board moved in May 2025 to recall Rob Katz, the executive who originally built Vail into a multi-mountain empire, ousting his hand-picked successor in the process. Katz has since focused on the operational grievances that drove customer dissatisfaction, particularly lift-line congestion and chronic labor shortages, introducing products like Epic Friend Tickets and discounted super-advanced lift tickets that are showing early traction. The move signals that Vail's board views operational credibility as its first line of defense against any activist pitch centered on mismanagement. Management also has a financial lever to highlight in any proxy fight. The company pays a quarterly cash dividend of $2.22 per share, with the next payment scheduled for July 9, 2026, equating to an annualized yield of roughly 6.6% at current prices. That yield argument, steady cash returns while the turnaround plays out, is a standard defensive talking point, though it carries less weight when leverage is rising and guidance is being cut. Investors will get a clearer read on whether Katz's operational fixes are gaining traction when Vail reports fiscal Q4 2026 results, tentatively scheduled for September 24, 2026. The setup is challenging: consensus EPS for that quarter stands at -$5.05, with eight analyst downward revisions in the past 90 days and no upward revisions, reflecting the structural headwinds Prince and any allied activist would likely exploit.

  DD: 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)

  Every "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.

  7 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.
