I kind of remember and Jolla like 5 years ago, but I think this is supposed to be a hype generating post OK. Try buying one though it is not so easy

I put the session cookie as http_only, same_site=strict and turned off csrf. Then pentesters came and quoted owasp in the report, while not being able to demonstrate an attack. Some drone added csrf back, everyone congratulated themselves in making things more secure :)
Just talk to a lawyer, have the lawyer send a letter, there is no need to bang head against CS for escalation

Probably an intern (oh its 2025, maybe LLM?) messed up some spaghetti part and the async job for reindexing your site is failing since then and the on-call is busy taking mojito/the alert is silenced :)

Interesting tips, looking into Go perf recently also. However making sure postgres wal log does not grow seems like putting an unnecessary constraint on things and then defeating it

All of my company's hosted web sites have way better uptimes and availability than CF but we are utterly tiny in comparison.
With only some mild blushing, you could describe us as "artisanal" compared to the industrial monstrosities, such as Cloudflare.
Time and time again we get these sorts of issues with the massive cloudy chonks and they are largely due to the sort of tribalism that used to be enshrined in the phrase: "no one ever got fired for buying IBM".
We see the dash to the cloud and the shoddy state of in house corporate IT as a result. "We don't need in-house knowledge, we have "MS copilot 365 office thing" that looks after itself and now its intelligent - yay \o/
Until I can't, I'm keeping it as artisanal as I can for me and my customers.
Sorry for the downvotes but this is true many times with some basic HA you get better uptime than the big cloud boys, yes their stack and tech is fancier but we also need to factor in how much CF messes with it vs self hosted, anyway the self hosted wisdom is RIP these days and I mostly just run cf pages / kv :)

See I'd say the definition of censorship is saying a word is bad and preventing you from saying it, even if you disagree.
And git isn't preventing you from having a master branch. In fact, they're providing instructions for people who prefer that.
Making you fee like less of a person for using the word is also censorship but in a more clever mean gaslighting way than a full order :)

Changing defaults is an interesting definition of censorship. It's not like you can't configure it to still use a master branch if you want to.
Saying a word is bad is pretty much the definition of censorship yes. Not the context it is used, not the implications when it is used but uncategorically BAD - it just breaks my somewhat autistic brain on the principle.
PS: I have an african wife and let me tell you she has no beef with the word, she will have more beef with me talking to the cashier in a way that is too friendly
