Having Cloudflare sponsoring Omarchy with free CDN, R2, and DDoS shield has been such a relief. Love when companies just decide to do things like this without needing a specific return. 52TB in traffic in just the last 72 hours! blog.cloudflare.com/supporting-the…

The fun thing about Cloudflare Birthday Week is that so many great launches are happening that don't need a full blog post but still seriously improve how people can use the best security tools on the planet. The changelog this week is like the smaller stages at ACL Fest;

1/ Internships changed my life. At Google and Microsoft I was a sponge, reading everything I could get my hands on, asking questions, asking everyone for advice. 2/ Today at Cloudflare we're scaling a similar internship opportunity. We aim to hire 1,111 interns in 2026. Why so

A significant AWS outage has been declared. Cloudflare data shows a clear drop in AS14618, associated with AWS’s US-East-1 region (Ashburn, Virginia) — one of AWS’s largest and busiest data center regions — starting around 07:00 UTC. Traffic fell by as much as 68% at 08:00 UTC.
