Whenever I’m facing issues with vscode and prettier talking seconds or copy pasting taking too long, Zed is my go to. Very reliable and smooth

Starting off strong with agents, autorag, and workflows ga!! Looking forward to the rest of the week

what's the saying? the more ram you have the more ram chrome will take?

I understand why they call it sheep meadow now ☀️

bug fixed, thanks for ping @lambrospetrou.com!

Where’s all the hype of bsky about openai’s image generation? It’s really really good and not a peep! Everybody is sharing studio ghibli images of themselves on twitter, creative ads too

I feel like I have this coworking space thing on lock

vibe coding in the cap1 café

A step in the right direction. Unfortunate that Vite is painted as “not for beginners”. Also, the ordering of frameworks matters and this makes Next.js effectively the default for anyone learning React.

We need more founders posting on Bluesky 😀 Reply to this with • who you are • what you're working on • something you need help with I'm Pete, a self-taught entrepreneur from Scotland I'm doing social media for clients today and writing my High Signal newsletter I don't need help right now

at @just-be.dev’s side project saturdays in bk. super fun no-frills dev + hack on stuff meetup!

Time to build

Someone asked me a while ago how I host my Vite React app on Cloudflare Workers & static assets. So I wrote a guide on my blog about how to do just that (and Angular and Vue for good measure!) thomasgauvin.com/writing/how-...

We finished rolling out edge caching for Hyperdrive earlier this month - cached queries are now up to 10x faster. This is reflected in an average 50% decrease in session duration for *all queries*! ⚡️ just landed it in the new Cloudflare changelog: developers.cloudflare.com/changelog-ne...

We made it a lot easier to connect to private databases from Cloudflare Hyperdrive using Tunnels, so you can build full stack apps on Workers with your existing databases! developers.cloudflare.com/changelog-ne... Demo doesn’t fit in 60 seconds, but it does fit in 2 minutes! x.com/thomasgauvin...

We just raised the Workers KV namespace limits for all Cloudflare accounts, from 200 to 1000 Folks had been running into those limits, especially teams building multi-tenant applications who split KV data by tenant. That’s now a thing of the past! developers.cloudflare.com/changelog-ne...

I redesigned my simple web latency tester to make it look freaking cool w/ @protomaps.com x @maplibre.org globe view because why not? Developers deserve cool tools Try it out! (I bumped the included limits to 500 & you can select which regions to test from)

Good news! Starting from the next wrangler release, you can connect to mongodb and MySQL directly from your Cloudflare workers!

@protomaps.com x @maplibre.org is open-source at its best globe view just dropped

Been playing with the DeepSeek R1 models all day, especially the distilled ones. Had to ask it the one question that always requires peculiar thinking. This one's for you @robsutter.dev The "thinking" is the interesting part:

Wanted to write about all the different ways you can cache stuff when building apps on Cloudflare. Did I miss any? thomasgauvin.com/writing/all-...

Severance popup at grand central!

I've been wanting to test out ideas and experiment with ways to interact with LLMs. This is a demo of milestone -1, a simple LLM client in the spirit of building in public

Buckle up because we're banging into the new year with my annual retrospective of the last year in databases! Highlights include license change blowback, Databricks vs. Snowflake gangwar, @duckdb.org's shotgun weddings, and buying a quarterback to impress your lover: www.cs.cmu.edu/~pavlo/blog/...

The new developments in LLM models is super exciting. Open-source models, from Llama to DeepSeek are pushing the envelope and making it better/faster/cheaper for developers to build their apps

Excellent recap on databases in 2024, wish this existed in all domains! Looking forward to 2025 👀 www.cs.cmu.edu/~pavlo/blog/...

Bullish

What tool is everyone using to compare LLM models performance and pricing?

Enjoying the snow! ❄️

Add on top of this the fact that every LLM basically defaults to generating React + Tailwind and you start to realize the “moat” and ecosystem advantage that React has

This is my favorite of the "year in review" blog posts that Cloudflare is putting out: blog.cloudflare.com/radar-2024-y... Great graphs on which websites are gaining in traction and rank. Check this one on the recent rise of Bluesky and how it compares to Twitter and Mastodon:

Happy year 1 @andrewrepp.com! Great working with you, love the relentless pursuit of performance! More details on Cloudflare Hyperdrive’s (up to) 90% cache hit latency decrease in original post

Hyperdrive cache hit latency is lower by up to 90%! S/o to @andrewrepp.com & team for relentlessly pushing on performance

Yall are using single quotes??

I'm at reinvent w/ the team at the Cloudflare booth! Come see us if you want to talk about Workers, R2, AI, KV, Durable Objects, Zero Trust (or just nerd out about frontend & serverless!)

most annoying dev experience: when dev mode doesn't match prod/build

We added support for secure clear-text password authentication to @cloudflare.social Hyperdrive, so we updated our docs w/ more providers! Examples for connecting to Xata, Azure and Nile Postgres databases, using Hyperdrive to speed up connections from your Workers to regional db's! 👇

Yes! networking + in person are critical, but it’s hard to develop a relationship on one-off meetups new age networking is building in public like @dhravya (he’s not on bluesky yet), joining a tech discord like @t3.gg’s, contributing to open source, becoming an active community member, etc

Does this exist in nyc? Haven’t found it yet, closest is devtools/cloud infra meetups

bsky once again trending this week on Radar data radar.cloudflare.com/domains/us

hi bluesky 👋 I never fully introduced myself I’m Thomas, I work on Workers KV and Hyperdrive at Cloudflare I’m based in NYC and attend a bunch of tech meetups so you’ll find me there I’m always hacking on stuff on the side and sharing it here, as you might have noticed from my recent tweets!

I think my twitter feed is fully broken. It’s gotten unbearable over the past 2 weeks. It’s full of tiktok-like brain rot videos and political slop. Good thing 🦋 exists

Quick write-up on the architecture of Geofetcher, a global speed test app built on Cloudflare Workers and Durable Objects (since I've gotten some questions about it):

Found a great resource for some fun weekend learning: www.youtube.com/playlist?lis... s/o all universities that post their content on YouTube

Lisbon airport has an impressive commit history (that reminds me, I have a blog to publish… 💭)

Added dark mode to Geofetcher. No more blinding screen at night. Tailwind + React context + Protomaps themes made this surprisingly easy. What do you think?

@lisboajs.org great meetup tonight! Loved hearing Igor’s Web Fragments talk @cloudflare.social’s Lisbon office

Do folks think that NoSQL databases have a place vs. SQL-based relational databases today? (The last time I asked this the responses were split down the middle)

My favourite part of coding at night is you can just stay up until it’s done/fixed

I needed to migrate an old Azure Functions project to @cloudflare.social Workers recently... Claude did it for me without error on the first try 🤯 It's really just a matter of time until you push arbitrary code and say "figure out how to host it for me"
