  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.

  Two changes to how I work with agents: 1. GitHub App so the agents manage issues directly. Keeps the repo clear of throwaway spec and todo files. 2. EmDash (Cloudflare's serverless WordPress successor) for internal docs. Runs on D1, just SQLite under the hood, so I can export the content and move it anywhere. No more docs sprawl.

  @FredKSchott Btw, would Flue support something like "Cloudflare Think"-style cloud agents as well? Curious if there are nice integrations with Cloudflare primitives (Workers, Durable Objects, Queues, etc.) for workflows and the overall agent harness.

  @OzorNdiOzor Yankee businesses know how to run a business properly I made a mistake with one of my websites on Cloudflare and made over 60 billion database writes in a month that become like $80 of bill to clear, I texted their support and explained to them and they cut it to $6 immediately!

  at a lot of companies, product's role is to come up with ideas, carefully groom the roadmap and narrowly define requirements for engineering to (blindly) follow this maybe makes for an "easier" product role but limits creativity (and accounrability) one thing that's unique about cloudflare is that ideas can really come from so many more places product's role is to help map those ideas to customer problems and make sure we actually solve them and help get those ideas in customers' hands (aka actually ship it and make it good!) it makes for a much more interesting role and breeds so much innovation and leads to better experiences because engineering is not exempt from taking ownership in the deliverable. "i shippped what's in the PRD" is not good enough. you own the customer problems & solutions together

  @elshad_ff @Teknium Had similar websocket issues before. One thing that helped was testing the same dashboard through Pinggy to confirm if Cloudflare was the bottleneck.

  Most 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.

  @rohit_jsfreaky What if I subscribe to private DNS servers ..... let's say cloudflare? Will that help? I mean I'll put those DNS swrvers in my laptops TCP/IP config with ISP provider for my home internet.

  @nejatian @Opendoor love the job posting super enticing, opendoor is legit the only company I've even thought about trying to actually get a job at in years wanted my current job to be my last but running it back one more time at a place im all in on and on an idea i want to see succeed before going off and doing my own thing sounds like fun. if my parents lived closer to Miami I'd be outside the office rn begging ya'll to hire me so I can help 100x OPEN but my parents are getting old now, etc. so I'm torn. I wish that job posting wasn't written for everything I like to do and how I work already it's just too good. I get bored with things that are easy to solve or do it's my biggest problem so I enjoy bouncing around to diff teams and doing random things and try to learn enough about everything so that I can do everyones job if needed & I've had some pretty intense cybersecurity fellas and cloud experts (from google, mandiant, etc) say I know what I'm doing when it comes to cloud after reviewing my **** infra setups and SDLC flows I designed and implemented so that's a big part of my T I guess, but it's boring me now because it's kind of easy at this point haven't had a tough challenge to solve in a bit; not that im the best ever or in an arrogant way but it's just all kind of the same thing at the end of the day and 99% of infra & software problems have been solved already they just need to be found first so it's more fun now for me to think about the entire pie than a piece of it thats why I like that job posting. fun fact: I used a cloudflare product in a unique way for my work's enterprise **** setup ~7 years ago that the cf team (atleast those in the call!) had never seen someone use it that way before, found it interesting and added it to their documentation a couple weeks later (a use case for argo tunnel) and it's now one of the most common uses of it. nothing fancy I thought it was cool though.

  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.

  I also understand that some of the words on pallets changed. PLEASE NOTE THAT the words were minted onchain, so your words are safe! We shifted the hosting site to Cloudflare after so many api calls (why the site was down for a couple of days) Please bear with us. working hard right now

  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)
