Maybe I'm missing something, but why can't Epic and other developers just raise the price of the games on the App Store by 30% and pass the cost along to customers. Customers on Apples Ecosystem will just need to pay a premium, ju

I think this quote is the most interesting in the testimony: In June 2019, search engine analyst Rand Fishkin put together a report about Google using data from web analytics firm Jumpshot. The data show that today an estimated 48.96% of a

I'm not sure what it is about this story, but it really causes me to 'geek' out.

I really love this offering and I don't think it gets enough attention. We are an on-prem company and we use CloudFlare. Our users pay for that latency (in time) for us to traverse our IP providers to get to a CF pop. Since all our tra

What I'm looking for is a full stack trace of a request, and how it progressed through their platform, through pops, Argo, Caches, etc. Akamai and others have tools like this, and it makes it much easier to debug gremlins on the inside

Note: If I come across as a hater, in my opinion, I am not. I'm a fan, a fan who is frustrated! We moved to Cloudflare from a larger CDN and used workers to duplicate the functionality otherwise not provided by Cloudflare. The initial

I really like simple tools like this. Well done; I can see lots of uses for this, especially with the Serverless/Jamstack surge. I love the idea of Hashing and read/write keys mentioned in this comment: https://news.yco

Congrats on the launch. This is finally a reasonable alternative to Fullstory and Hotjar. (we don't want to self host) Fullstory changed pricing last year to focus on extracting large amounts of money from big customers, thus leaving s

"Have you expanded beyond your cofounders?" We haven't, although we do have other team members with Portals, I don't think it would be effective for our use case. Most of the conversations are semi-private, so we use the

Have you tried the always on? I find it very productive. The difference is, it's muted when not actively discussing, so you get the presence without the distraction.

Congratulations on the launch. I'm a remote worker, so I was keenly interested in this. I've been using a Facebook Portal for about 1.5 years as an always-on video device. It works great, so I love the idea. There's open wate

Pretty neat. I bet were going to see a lot of GPT-3 powered school work in the future. "Write me a turn paper on..." and then your just cleaning it up and making adjustments.

CloudFlare is a good company and everyone has outages. IMHO the post-mortems they post are not only some of the best I've read from a big company, but they are produced quickly. I only wish they could update cloudflarestatus.com more q

I think they are more similar than not. The military does have mechanisms to investigate and punish misconduct, but so do the police, internal affairs departments. I believe the difference is internal vs. external initiation of claims. I do

I found out Cloudflare does have a way to subscribe, you have to do it through an internal ticket though.
