Very cool. I've been using worktrees a lot recently at work, mostly reworking tools or CI jobs that try to manage branches into just using a worktree and cleaning up after yourself.

It's made a big difference in readability and cleanliness. I'll often use, eg, `mktemp -d` with a template argument that's relevant to the usage, then use the base name of the temporary directory as the worktree branch, followed by `git fetch <remote> <remote-branch>:<worktree-branch>`.

I've been thinking about using worktrees more for my general development, since I'm frequently working across multiple branches.

I regret not finding an opportunity to check the old place out on one of my many visits to the SF office, but it's awesome to see that the new place is finally coming to a close.

Didn't realize it had been so long, but I suppose I left Cloudflare like 3.5 years ago and I know it was a bit of a pain in the ass just trying to buy the property here in Austin in the first place.

From context, I'm assuming Microsoft / Amazon / Google, referring to Azure / AWS / Google Cloud respectively.

Heya Dave! I see your name pop up every once in awhile in various places. We first connected on that MUD many many years ago if you don't recall.

vscode.dev is still for local development, not remote. It uses browser filesystem APIs to access your local filesystem. Whereas code-server runs on the remote and exposes a web server for you to connect to which serves up the filesystem on the remote.

This was an incredible resource back when CBVs were first introduced. While I tended to prefer function-based views (when I was still heavily using Django), this page was the first one I opened when I knew I was going to be using a CBV.

Thanks to the authors/maintainers!

Cf has really mature trust and safety as well as security teams and tools. I've no doubt they've taken bad actors into account considering all of the other offerings they have that have also attracted bad actors.

These things are very cool. I buy wood from a local wood yard every year or two (I don't use much here in Texas, but we do love our firepit and fireplace when it's cool enough), but the splits I get are often too large to easily burn. I'll often buy a bag of kindling when I pickup fire wood, but the kindling doesn't last long.

The main reason I didn't get a kindling cracker is because I don't have a stable base to mount it, although I suppose I could manufacture one next to the wood rack. I did, however, get a hydraulic wood splitter[1] which at least helps split some of the really large logs into something more manageable. It's pretty simple to use and very effective, even on the very knotty and hard oak wood out here.

As far as "vote rings" are concerned, the CTO (and others) would emphatically remind people not to upvote to ensure we didn't end up getting flagged.

Have you seen gron[0]? It's similar: flattens JSON documents to make them easily greppable. But it also can revert (ie, ungron) so you can pipe json to gron, grep -v to remove some data, then ungron to get it back to json.

The tweet is misleading. He mounted his TV on top of his thermostat[0]; and I'm sure he knew full-well that it meant he wouldn't be able to change the temperature without the app.

They do. You can turn them. Turns out this individual decided to mount his TV over his Nest[0]. So changing the temperature without the app requires removing the TV.

We're excited about it also :)

While we haven't relaxed the 1MB restriction, we have made some changes to the way we compress and distribute your code to the edge. I'd encourage you to try again, and our new CLI[0] handles the webpacking for you.

I've been at Cloudflare just over a year now, and if there's one message that's been drilled into my head it's Trust. We understand that we're in the position that we're in largely due to trust. I like to believe that even if our CEO is a secret lizard person you'd get whistleblowers coming out of the woodwork if we tried to exploit our users.

Looks like the screenshots on Github are outdated. I just ran it locally and it does print out offsets in a new left-most column.

There's a pretty good write up on how it works here: https://blog.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-supports-privacy-pass...

I'm curious on what's missing from Cloudflare Workers to allow you to remove the API Gateway usage. We're actively looking for more advanced use cases so we can make sure we prioritize upcoming features. Reply here or send me an email at <username> at cloudflare.com.

It's something we're iterating on, and the results are so far looking promising; but there are a few scenarios in which they may not work (yet). If you reach out to your SE they should be able to get into specifics.

Cloudflare has a transparency report[0], updated twice a year.

In the transparency report there's a warrant canary:

  Some things we have never done
  Cloudflare has never turned over our SSL keys or our customers' SSL keys to anyone.
  Cloudflare has never installed any law enforcement software or equipment anywhere on our network.
  Cloudflare has never terminated a customer or taken down content due to political pressure.
  Cloudflare has never provided any law enforcement organization a feed of our customers' content transiting our network.
