Two papers came out last week that suggest classical asymmetric cryptography might indeed be broken by quantum computers in just a few years. That means we need to ship post-quantum crypto now, with the tools we have: ML-KEM and ML-DSA. I didn't think PQ auth was so urgent until recently.

I contributed SHOW CLIENTS metrics to the Prometheus PgBouncer exporter. Similar to pg_stat_activity, but for PgBouncer. Now you can monitor client connections over time. Wrote a bit about it: tylerhillery.com/blog/monitor...

There's plenty to take issue with when it comes to the Pritzker family. That said, it's hard to argue we'd be better off having brought a millionaire to the Billionaire fight. I'll be voting for him again. He's picking all the right fights and I'm glad he's in my corner for now.

I've posted my latest recap of the world of databases: www.cs.cmu.edu/~pavlo/blog/... All the hot topics from the last year: • More Postgres action! • MCP for everyone! • MongoDB gets litigious with FerretDB! • File formats! • Market movements! • The richest person in the history of the world!

Big improvement to frameworks on Cloudflare! You can now deploy most frameworks from the CLI with zero config. No adding adapters. No editing configs. No wrangler.toml! It's all done automatically. Experimental now, with 10 frameworks supported today. developers.cloudflare.com/changelog/20...

So uh. Do you think they warned Dropbox first? Imagine getting that email.

As a systems guy who's not afraid to take a frontend ticket now and again, I'm aware that frontend is often more complex than "boxes and buttons and stylesheet". But like... this sort of thing just astounds me. A good reminder that my corner of programming doesn't have a monopoly on cool work.

Do you like databases? Do you want to hear two database professors rant about them? Do you need one of those professors to have a Turing Award for databases? If yes, then join Mike Stonebraker and I next Wed Dec 10 @ 1:00pm EST for database hot takes: www.dbos.dev/webcast-2025...

If you've ever used Rust, you've felt jyn's positive influence — even if you never realized it. I hope my token of recognition is just the start of jyn's invaluable work getting the funding it deserves. Folks, can we get jyn some more funding? RT 🙏 github.com/sponsors/jyn...

Hello, friends! After 10(!) years of #AdventOfCode, I've made some changes to preserve my sanity: there will be 12 days of puzzles each December (still starting Dec 1) and there is no longer a global leaderboard. Read more: adventofcode.com/2025/about#f... adventofcode.com/2025/about#f...

It's great to see things shifting back to the principles we were promoting through the mid 2000s while working on RSS, Atom, Activity Streams, and ironically OpenSocial. Those efforts ended up being short circuited by Twitter and Facebook competing to own the walled gardens. We've come full circle.

Regarding goroutine & unbuffered channel interaction, found myself repeating this multiple times. Maybe it's time to write it down for reference. Early return + unbuffered send = goroutine leak. rednafi.com/go/early_ret... #golang

America is beautiful, contradictory, unfinished. I am proud of our country even as we constantly strive to make it better, to protect and deepen our democracy, to fulfill its promise for each and every person who calls it home. Happy Independence Day. No Kings in America.

Proposed incident metric: how often at least one person says "but this is impossible" when considering a theory that turns out to be true.

“no way to prevent this” says only programming language where this regularly happens

Looks like the Google Cloud incident report is out: status.cloud.google.com/incidents/ow... A June 12 policy update with unintentional blank fields triggered a crash loop in Service Control code that lacked proper error handling, causing binaries to fail globally.

A SIGTERM is issued by the operating system; my process effortlessly dodge rolls it, then immediately executes a perfect parry against the MMU. Before it can recover, a null pointer has been loaded into EBX. The kernel groans at my shit.

happy to finally announce it! @cloudflare.social is now backing @pkg.pr.new's data infrastructure! thank you so much everyone for supporting the tool and making this possible.

This is the one timeline where there may be future history books with a chapter on Roganomics.

The agenda for Systems Distributed is out now! Join us in Amsterdam for two days of talks, film references, and systems... distributed! systemsdistributed.com/agenda

Sounds like a pretty good start to a cozy adventure. What do you think? #indiegamedev #gamedev #gameaudio #videogamemusic

Really interesting thread here. Stored procedures can move mountains, and there are definitely ways to make them feel nicer to use. But you're not going to have fun pitching them to your team.

New article out: "Cloudflare Durable Objects are Virtual Objects"🚀 This pops up a lot and is a mindset shift from the traditional way of thinking on "creating" and "destroying" resources, so I wrote a few thoughts how to think about it. www.lambrospetrou.com/articles/dur... #DurableObjects

Wow, that's an insanely cool website: animejs.com/

I'm incredibly excited to announce that we're making Hyperdrive available on the Free Plan for Cloudflare Workers! To celebrate this, we put together a deep dive on how it all actually works under the hood. Come take a look, and give Hyperdrive a try! blog.cloudflare.com/how-hyperdri...

I’m going to do a 🧵 about making retro-style games in C/C++, and also about getting them to run in a browser.

A community member just shared this cool article about how to rig up a Worker and AWS IAM to get Hyperdrive working well with Amazon DSQL. It's always fun to see the people build cool stuff on Cloudflare! www.ai.moda/en/blog/auto...

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...

A big shout-out to @jasnell.me for landing experimental QUIC support in #nodejs core 🥳 And thanks to @yagiznizipli.com and @pimterry.fyi for reviewing it. It'll be awesome if QUIC becomes stable in NOde.js 24.x LTS. github.com/nodejs/node/...
