A small ship I love: We made https://t.co/DQ5nmzzS1u and our desktop apps meaningful faster this week.

We moved our architecture from SSR to a static @vite_js & @tan_stack router setup that we can serve straight from workers at the edge. Time to first byte is down 65% at p75, prompts show up 50% sooner, navigation is snappier.

We're not done (not even close!) but we care and we'll keep chipping away. Aiming to make Claude a little better every day.

Love hard science and it’s ability to change the world in the instant of an experiment. Know lots left to prove, but incredible if proven. https://t.co/n4AkZknABj

If EU proposals to change the way the Internet works to make senders pay for traffic (as opposed to having settlement-free peering) I'm not sure how we'd be able to continue to provide our free security service that protects millions of SMBs across Europe. https://t.co/im7NJBBoDN

Someone has a new toy. We weren’t the only company targeted. We were one of the few to successfully mitigate. Stay safe out there.

Cloudflare thwarts 17.2M rps DDoS attack — the largest ever reported https://t.co/tyUHfdJMFA

[Will Smithee @wasmithee]

"Notably, the attack is detected automatically via Cloudflare’s in-built software-designed system, which runs autonomously across the whole network. Similarly, the software detected and mitigated the attack without the intervention of a human being."
