»Datenleck durch Salesloft – Cloudflare, Palo Alto, Zscaler betroffen:
Viele Unternehmen sind von der Salesloft-Drift-Schwachstelle betroffen. Auch große und namhafte wie Cloudflare, Palo Alto und Zscaler.«
So klug sind KI-Chatbots und deswegen alles andere als sicher. Wenn deswegen nicht einige Unternehmen schwere Schaden erhalten? IT-Sicherheit ein ewiges Thema.

There's a scarily good fake Cloudflare page that asks you to run commands on your computer - I saw it myself earlier this week. Don't copy and run commands from strange sites! https://www.techradar.com/pro/security/…
«So, to sum it up, Kling wears his mask a bit better than DHH, but as far as I’m concerned it seems clear that both projects are run by fascists. If it walks like a fascist and quacks like a fascist… then why is Cloudflare giving them hundreds of thousands of dollars?»
I think we all know the answer to that one!

Cloudflare overtaking Apache in the web server survey feels a bit like when people starting using OpenDNS over their local ISP resolvers.
I have an idea of what could be next, but you're not going to like it.

Seems #cloudflare maintenance (or #aws outage?) is causing some other service outages. Like my Signal messages won't send at all, and some of the team cannot huddle on Slack
I've now fully transferred everything in to Porkbun. For my simple needs Namecheap and Cloudflare would have been fine too. But Porkbun is nice, and cheap, and feels like they have innovated recently. Good choice for now, inevitably some private equity firm will buy it and enshittify it. (That's what ruined Gandi.)

What I don't get is why does DHH even need so much funding and sponsorships for open source projects. Tens of thousands from framework, cloudflare and god knows who else.
When I made the (then) probably most popular JavaScript open source framework I got zero funding and sponsorship and was doing fine?
I'm not saying that people shouldn't get paid for work, but that dude is a fucking multi-millionaire who drives race cars as a hobby.

I'm giving up on CachyOS. Sank the rest of my evening into it, to no avail. DNS resolution is still unreliable in pacman and Firefox (and everything else) even after taking my network-local DNS server out of the chain, getting rid of systemd-resolved, and trying several different providers (quad9, Cloudflare, Google). The other ThinkPad running openSUSE is having no such issues tonight: it's CachyOS specific (since I see no evidence that it is a hardware issue - local network traffic…
