The primary purpose of the Cloudflare DNS Proxy is to act as a reverse proxy that sits between your website visitors and your origin server. When enabled, Cloudflare intercepts incoming web traffic, processes it, and shields your server from direct connections.

Maybe you are not up to date on latest trends, but modern CDN purpose is to shield the origin from the public writ large.

now that we can use AI to write the docs , test the docs , proof read the docs , it really isn't that much of a feat right?

This is great for consumers. More options leads to more choices means more competition means lower prices. Which group is it bad for?

Arm AGI CPU 4 months ago

The arm family of chips (apple A series, m series, and qcom snapdragon) are better on energy usage (thus battery life) and performance and design compared to many x86 style chips (intel, amd).

Time will tell if ARMs owncpu is on par or better than Apple’s ARM based chips

I would love to have a use case to learn and write rust today. But i am deep in node and go services for my employer. Previously wrote java and c#. What are people writing in rust today?

you can buy ads on instagram, fb, tiktok, reddit, youtube, amazon, apple iOS apps, the M$ windows start menu (apparently), and soon OpenAI (gemini gotta be following right)!

Here is a practical example: When I simply want to switch wifi networks at home or work or the coffee shop, or I want to disconnect my car from bluetooth and go with just my AirPods (for a private call with the kids in the car), it takes more than 3-4 clicks to do the "right thing" from that slide down menu.

The UI reaction feels more delayed now. If i'm in the middle of a call and want to go private, or some how got connected to the slow network, and i want to switch to the other one.

I feel like I used to be able to do it with 2 or 3 simple clicks. Now i cant remember if i need to click once, or click and hold, and by then the animation changed and now I tapped again and its doing something i did not expect.

For me personally, I used to be a wiz at navigating this phone on older OS versions - and now i feel like a klutz and it doesn't do the thing I expected anymore.

Older/earlier iOS was more simple, intuitive, and usable from my point of view (mid 30s tech oriented male). Now even i find myself getting lost in the endless settings menus and too many different home screen / option screen / extra screens. I don't even use MacOS Launchpad. Just give me a desktop, window manager, and simple notifications.

I dread the day my older mom updates her iOS and calls me for help.
