The embeddings/search API seem super powerful, been meaning to play around with it more. I wonder how its performance compares to ElasticSearch / other text search/classification offerings out there

Could we add (2011) to the title? This is from before Ben's 2014 book "The Hard Thing About Hard Things" which popularized the concept. I was expecting the link to be e.g. a new essay from Ben / a recent analysis of the

Curious what you find happened with that. On the webdev side—what can be done as extra defense-in-depth step to guard against this kind of issue? Unrelated to Cloudflare I feel like it is a common issue that crops up on even massive sites q

Very cool. I could see a system like this: 1. being the layer upon which AI-assisted computing is trained and built 2. being used for video game QA. For certain heisenbugs it'd be invaluable to be able to restore point-in-time repro to
