  Ozmium (@ozonchain) reported 3 minutes ago

  @kennyistyping A lot is pick-and-choose too, but it's been incredibly useful for me personally at least to see and fix areas of the Ozmium front-end and back-end to make it so AI Agents and Humans basically have 100% equal footing on what they can do through the app/domain. I've even used it on some other side non-blockchain things that I realized would greatly benefit from being fully agent-ready (e.g., I run an economic development map to help IRL builders find serious community funding and site selection, data export for all the paperwork data requirements to get the funding, etc.) I've always been a bit biased to Cloudflare because their free plan lets you do so much.

  @jb_ma @sb_chadi Yes, but I've never had CloudFlare request a terminal command sequence. I think most people will be immediately on guard if that occurred after clicking their human status?

  The fastest way to crash PostgreSQL is opening direct connections inside Serverless Lambdas. 1,000 concurrent requests = 1,000 DB connections = OOM crash in 2 seconds. Fix: Put PgBouncer or Cloudflare Hyperdrive in front. Keep 20 persistent connections open and reuse them.

  @inoutremer @CharlieTyson1 this type of thing is solved by hosting on e.g. Cloudflare. pieces going modestly viral like Wilson's or Oyler's did shouldn't crash a modern web site! presumably they just have terrible IT. (but a quite wonderfully designed website IMO)

  Default `/crawl` is `contentUse: "full"`. A site that sets `use=reference` now 400s you at job start. Aug 31, Cloudflare Browser Rendering. The endpoint honors the Content Signals `use` level in robots.txt. Allowed `contentUse` values: `reference` or `full`. `immediate` is not accepted because `/crawl` stores pages. Mismatch = 400 `Crawl disallowed by Content-Signal directive (purpose or use level)`. Site `use=immediate` blocks every crawl. Site `use=reference` blocks the default. This is a second gate beside `crawlPurposes` (`search` / `ai-input` / `ai-train`). Defaults are all three, so `ai-train=no` 400s you too unless you narrow the array. If the job is RAG/index, declare `reference` and drop `ai-train`. Don't debug a 400 as an outage until you've read the site's `Content-Signal`.

  @synopsi use cloudflare receive and sending. connect receive to an openrouter API, basically most modern AI will do, even cheaper ones. make it categorize: promotion, support, misc. and then route the support to your actual support platform so you can see it all in one place.

  @0xAdesola 1.1.1.1 does not block malware or phishing. For that, use 1.1.1.2. DNS generally cannot unblock geographically restricted streaming services. That normally requires an authorised VPN or Smart DNS service. It cannot increase your broadband speed. It may make the beginning of website loading slightly quicker if your ISP’s DNS is slow. AdGuard DNS blocks many domain-based advertisements, but not every advertisement. It usually cannot reliably block YouTube, Instagram or advertisements served from the same domain as the content. Parental DNS is useful but not foolproof. VPNs, encrypted DNS, mobile data and some apps can bypass router-level filtering. How to change DNS on your router While connected to your home Wi-Fi, open a browser. Enter one of these common router addresses: 192.168.1.1 192.168.0.1 192.168.29.1 192.168.100.1 The correct address is often printed underneath the router as Router IP, Gateway or Web GUI. Sign in using the router’s administrator username and password. This is not necessarily your Wi-Fi password. Check the router label or your ISP’s documentation. Before changing anything, take a photograph or screenshot of the existing settings. Look for a menu called: Internet or WAN Network DHCP Server LAN Settings DNS Settings Disable Automatic DNS, Obtain DNS automatically, or DNS from ISP. Enter your chosen pair. For general family protection, I suggest: Primary DNS: 1.1.1.3 Secondary DNS: 1.0.0.3 For advertisement blocking instead: Primary DNS: 94.140.14.14 Secondary DNS: 94.140.15.15 Do not mix servers from different providers; otherwise filtering may become inconsistent. Tap Save/Apply and restart the router. Disconnect and reconnect your devices to Wi-Fi, or restart them. Cloudflare confirms that router-level configuration normally applies the DNS setting across connected devices.

  I compared Cloudflare Workers and Vercel Edge Functions, two production platforms built on V8 isolates, using a latency-sensitive crypto analytics service. The workload fetched prices and computed OHLC + VWAP over 24 kline periods.

  WTF - Grok Bot can't fire on schedule to save it's life. The scheduled routines are just broken and at best unreliable. I want to love this product. When you set the cron job it doesn't work. It tells you try Cloudflare, sure let's set that up and burn tokens, then that doesn't fire to wake them. Oh, let's try GitHub now and use that....all failed. I had to wake it again this morning before the market opened. Anyone else feeling frustration in this regard?

  At a previous job, I was lucky to work with a staff-level front-end engineer who was very good at what he did and thorough like no one else I had worked with. I didn’t always appreciate that thoroughness. At first, I found it maddening. Meetings with product and design would drag on because he always had an enormous list of questions about whatever feature we were discussing. I was usually eager to finish the meeting and start coding. It took me a while to understand that he wasn’t making the process longer. He was asking the questions we would otherwise have to answer halfway through development, when an unanswered question could block the feature or send it in the wrong direction. Every unanswered question holds an assumption, and that assumption might not match what product or design had in mind. I thought about him recently while reviewing the search process for Casamo, a product I’m building to help people compare furnished stays. Before changing the code, I started asking questions: Why were we processing listings already known to be over the user’s budget? Why were hotel-like properties entering the process when the user had asked for an entire place? Why did we stop after finding six suitable stays if ten were available? How old could a review be before it stopped being useful evidence? Those questions exposed decisions that had been made when Casamo ran on a low-powered VPS and needed to do as little work as possible. They didn’t all make sense now that the product runs on Cloudflare. We changed the search process to reject known mismatches earlier, treat six results as the minimum rather than the target, continue until it finds ten suitable stays, and only use reviews from the previous year as evidence. If I had started coding immediately, I probably would have made the existing process faster without questioning whether it was still the right process. I don’t know if I’ll ever have as many questions as he did, but now I understand what he was protecting us from.

  Comparisons 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.

  @ChaoticTKnight I'm gonna laugh if Cloudflare gets DDOSed or some **** because they wanna claim the Internet. Not everyone has to be hijacked by Cloudflare and I hope someone hacks their ******* **** I don't use these words a lot but the Internet might just have robophobia.

  @Cloudflare So awesome, but so many questions! Always transcode or pass-trough zstd if the client supports it (since most browsers now support zstd)? Is this also the case when origins provide compressed assets or only when they don't?
