cloudflare

Downdetector wants to issue a cloudlfare challenge, but cannot because of the current cloudflare outage. Instead of letting me through or supplying a useful error message, this is what it says. As if I, and my ad blocker, are to blame.

My website and fedi instance still works because it's not behind #Cloudflare. Just sayin'.

#SelfHost

Hilariously, I found out about the #Cloudflare outage by trying to use a goat gestation calculator from the American Goat Society after breeding the first goat of the year this morning.

Today is my first day on Cloudflare!

Just had Claude clean up my code while I was vibe coding.

Committing it to main right now!

Happy to be part of the team

So #Cloudflare didn't have a unit test to catch the upper bound of func with an .unwrap(). It got through code review/linting/etc? A billion dollar company and responsible for a huge potion of traffic?

At what point do these failures become malpractice/negligence and subject to regulatory fines?

A (horrible) alternate reality, inspired by yesterday.

#Fedify 1.6 is approaching with three major enhancements: RFC 9421 HTTP Message Signatures support with double-knocking for seamless backward compatibility, a new builder pattern for better code organization in large applications, and native #Cloudflare #Workers support for serverless deployments. These additions strengthen Fedify's standards compliance while expanding deployment flexibility across different environments. Stay tuned for the official release! 🚀

I just had to "prove" I am human to view a shop listing for a refrigerator.

Once again a fully automated, non-human system is denying me access to a resource on the internet because it has determined I am not human enough.

Cloudflare 发现 Perplexity 的秘密爬虫会伪装 User-Agent 爬取其它网站，并且不遵守 robots.txt。

- Cloudflare 注册了一个新域名，配置了禁止任何爬虫的 robots.txt，在 Cloudflare 上禁止 GenAI 爬虫访问。
- 在询问 Perplexity 关于一个此域名下子域名的详细信息的时候，Perplexity 依然可以做出一些回答。
- Cloudflare 发现 Perplexity 以 macOS 上 Chrome 的 User-Agent 伪装自己，通过未宣告在文档所述自有 IP 段中的，来自多个 ASN 的 IP 访问了此域名。
- Cloudflare 通过机器学习等技术尝试识别并拦截此类爬取行为。测试发现当爬取被拦截时，Perplexity 转用了其它数据源，说明拦截确有起效。
- 文章还提到，OpenAI 旗下的 ChatGPT 会访问并遵守 robots.txt，尊重了网站主对爬虫的要求。
- Cloudflare Bot Management 用户现已可使用相关规则拦截 Perplexity 的秘密爬虫。

Bueno, pues el post de ayer iba a ser un poco distinto, pero por aquello de lo del bloqueo de la puta liga en el que @mirlo se ve afectado pues me ha salido hoy esto.

La noticia buena: ¡ya se pueden escuchar los temas en abierto!

Cloudflare 发现 Fina CA 一直在未经授权签发 1.1.1.1 的 TLS 证书。

- Fina CA 是一家证书机关 (CA)，其根证书目前在 Microsoft 的信任根证书库中。
- Cloudflare 人士最近从邮件列表获知此事件。
- 根据调查，自 2024 年二月起，Fina 就已签发了 12 个包含 IP 地址 1.1.1.1 的证书；大多证书在签发后立即被 revoke。
- Cloudflare 在文档中提到其本来早就应该通过 Certificiate Transparency 监测获知此问题，但由于数个原因监测未能奏效。

I turned a tiny #Mac mini into my own #Mastodon server—secure, low‑maintenance, and running like a dream. Here’s the full build, from #Docker to #Cloudflare Tunnel, and why #SelfHosting doesn’t have to be a headache.
