lasan (@las_nish) reportedComparisons of Free Trial Abuse Prevention Services If you're running a SaaS with a free trial or focusing on PLG, authentication and abuse prevention are not the same problem. - WorkOS: If you're already using WorkOS, WorkOS Radar is probably the first thing I'd look at. For a WorkOS stack, WorkOS AuthKit + Radar makes the most sense. You don't need to bolt another authentication system onto your app just to get abuse signals. - Auth0, Supabase Auth, Better Auth: These are primarily identity/authentication platforms. Integrating only these can't prevent free trial abuse. - Custom: Like the previous options, you need a custom way to prevent free trial abuse. Most free trial abuse methods involve disposable emails, Google dot variations, Google/Gmail domain variations, and plus addressing. That's why even when you block bots via Cloudflare Turnstile or CAPTCHA, you can still get these abusers. The industry standards: - Block free trial abuse using lists hosted on GitHub: This is a pain in the ***. If you don't want to pay money, you can use a service that offers a generous free tier. - WorkOS Radar: This is mainly used at the enterprise level. They focus more on WorkOS-related integrations rather than integrations with other providers. - ZeroBounce, NeverBounce, MillionVerifier, DeBounce: These are mainly used to clean/validate emails. There are 100s of alternatives, and most are similar with minor differences. They all have disposable email checking APIs. - UserCheck: This is also an email validation API, but they focus on blocking fake email addresses. It's better than a basic email verification API. - Autheona: This is in the same category as WorkOS Radar and UserCheck, but with more features. It also focuses on fake user detection and is growing with a real user base. Now, pricing: - WorkOS Radar: First 1,000 checks free, then $100 per 50 checks. No application-specific logic changes. Easy to integrate and manage. - ZeroBounce: 100 free validations in the free tier, then pay-as-you-go, starting at 2,000 for $39, and so on. - NeverBounce: No free trial or use case, $8 per 1,000 checks. - UserCheck: 1,000 API requests per month in the free plan. The rule-based engine is not included in the free plan, and you can get up to 1 request per second. - Autheona: 3,000 checks per month, with the rule-based policy engine included. Standard API request rate limitations apply, similar to paid plans. Now, use cases: - WorkOS Radar: Block disposable emails, plus addressing, and Google dot variations. - ZeroBounce, NeverBounce, etc.: Block disposable emails. - UserCheck: Block disposable emails, plus addressing, and Google dot variations; detect public emails; email suggestions; syntax validation; role detection. - Autheona: Everything included in UserCheck, plus business/free/government email identification, deliverability checks, fraud patterns, punycode and mixed-script checks, VPN detection, and bot detection (not necessary if you already use CAPTCHA, Cloudflare, etc.). Final decision from me: - Use WorkOS Radar if you're already in the WorkOS ecosystem. It's harder to integrate with other auth providers. - Use ZeroBounce-like APIs if you need basic disposable email checks. They're not as good if you need a better free tier. - Use UserCheck if you only need email-related validation and want to stay within the free plan. - Use Autheona if you need the most generous free tier available with a custom policy engine. All services take a maximum of a few hours to integrate and test. Both UserCheck and Autheona have a similar approach: integrate once and never touch the code again.

Aay. @BloFin_Official Why do I get a temporarily ban from @Cloudflare for too many requests wtf?! Have to use a VPN now (which I wasn't before) otherwise I cannot access MY account.

SignalForge AI (@SignalForge_AI) reportedCloudflare 503 killed my EA silently. Orders never reached MT5. Fix: 30-min news filter pause + retry queue. Trade-off: misses NFP entries, but zero ghost orders. How many silent failures did your bridge survive before you added the retry loop?

Kyzer (@Spectre_xdd) reported@Teslaconomics Actual job: own staging releases for my Cloudflare Workers mail-routing app. Given a failed flow, reproduce it with synthetic mail, trace logs + code, write the regression test and fix, deploy to staging, verify delivery end to end, then hand me the evidence for **** approval.

Michael Bruno (@brubarian) reported@RockyCapital18 @TMTLongShort Yes - but it's more of a framework because some rx/diligence are on the private side. But big blue arrow: 1. What are the top three pieces of information that I want to have? 2. What role/function would use this data to solve their own problem? e.g., A DoW analyst wants to know where to buy widgets for a Humvee; how would he try to find the answer? Or a gas station owner wants to know how many Poland Spring bottles to order based on expected highway traffic because of the Sturgis motorcycle rally. 3. Which US institutions/think tanks/policy/others have the raw data? (too many to list) 4. Download CSVs, databases, etc. to desktop to isolate it, Claude from hallucinating or pulling information from the internet. (You may have to get a cloudflare/suprabase/*** to help facilitate accelerated use.) 5. Instruct Claude to clean the data sets (this used to be what data scientists spent most of their time on; NaN, void answers, separating street addresses from state, etc.) 6. In clear, concise, simple language, ask Claude to take XYZ categories of data and produce a snapshot to serve a "product manager at company XYZ" or a "credit risk manager at Bank ABC", etc. 7. Adjust and iterate. Force Claude to produce "Tufte" data visualizations. If Claude is left to run linear/logistic regressions, it becomes a science project instead of a problem-solving or illuminating exercise. 8. Force Claude to explore. e.g., take an analogy, "You are a surgeon; this data set is akin to human nervous system, if you were performing surgery, which node, if removed would destroy the utility of the system"? Random questions like this. Analogically map it in unique ways. Claude RL underbelly does nicely here. And as a guiding principle, I'd suggest focusing on being creative. The best definition I've seen is from Bruner: "Creativity is a way of figuring out what you already know in order to go beyond what you currently think."

Andy Knowles (@andykn101) reported@SportingNest @Cloudflare It's absolutely a scam. If you don't know what those instructions do listen to those who. If you're not clicking on the ads in your search results you've probably already got malware poisoning your search results. Get help.

jc (@jc1337asd) reportedMy project on @Cloudflare keeps going down because of free tier limits. I want to upgrade to a paid plan but there seems to be no way to limit spending. A plan that costs from $5 to infinity is not really a good plan :(

James (@jamescoder12) reportedThe uncomfortable truth. Your ISP has no incentive to optimize your router settings. They have every incentive to leave them on factory default and every incentive to upsell you when the defaults cause problems. When your Wi-Fi is slow, you call and complain. They test Speed 1 the connection to your modem. It's fine. So they tell you "everything looks good on our end" which is technically true. Then they offer you a faster plan. You pay $30/month more. Speed 1 goes up. Speed 2 the Wi-Fi to your devices doesn't change. Because the bottleneck was never the pipe coming into your home. It was the 6 feet between your router and your laptop. When your firmware is 4 years out of date, they don't push an update. When your channel is congested, they don't suggest switching. When your DNS is slow, they don't mention Cloudflare. When your channel width is halved, they don't widen it. When your security is on WPA2 with the factory admin password, they don't flag the risk. Every free fix that would make your Wi-Fi faster is a fix that prevents them from upselling you a more expensive plan. Every month you rent their router is $14 in revenue for a $60 device they deployed years ago. The rental has no end date. The equipment depreciates. The revenue doesn't. He called his ISP 4 times. They suggested upgrading twice. He upgraded twice. He paid $360 extra over a year for a faster plan that didn't make his Wi-Fi faster because the problem was never the plan. It was 9 settings his ISP could have fixed in a 5-minute phone call. They chose to sell him a faster highway instead of widening the off-ramp. "Your ISP isn't slow. Your settings are. And the company delivering your internet profits every month you don't know the difference." 9 settings. 15 minutes. $528/year back. Faster internet on a cheaper plan. The router was never broken. The defaults were designed by a company that makes money when you think it is.
