@rauchg @rauchg we love Vercel! Great job! 👏 Cloudflare, I believe, is doing a much better job at making their platform even more developer friendly. We use them extensively as well; no qualms. But, yes, some things do seem like after-thoughts and once you invest time you notice it.

Vercel Fluid vs Cloudflare Workers. 💬"From my findings, Vercel is 1.2x to 5x faster than CloudFlare for server rendering." We gave a very, very earnest try to Workers when we explored the edge runtime / world. There's no "beef", we had to migrate off for technical reasons. To be fair to them, they brought new ideas to the market. The CPU-based pricing for instance was good and Vercel Fluid has it as well. The main issues we ran into: 1️⃣ Bad CPU performance, low capacity, very irregular and spiky latency. The benchmarks show you this. 2️⃣ Single-vendor runtime. You can't run "Node.js 24". You run "whatever they give you, which is trying to look like Node.js but it's not" 3️⃣ Really bad connectivity to the clouds. We measured the roundtrip time between AWS and CF Workers as being in the low 10s to 100s of milliseconds The result of us migrating off was shipping Fluid. You pay for CPU, it handles concurrency like a server (cost-efficient), you control the size / memory of the functions, you get full, open runtimes like @nodejs and Python, you get 1ms latency to cloud services… Most people today are using Fluid and they don't even notice, because it just works® with the entire ecosystem. Here are the benchmarks @theo ran: github.com/t3dotgg/cf-vs-…

@SMB_Attorney @SMB_Attorney oooh make one for the 8+ business models searchers should pursue.

Everyone on X is hyping “easy cash flow businesses.” Most of them actually suck. Here are 8 business models you should think twice before buying 👇 1. Car washes The CapEx never stops. Pumps break, tunnels jam, water bills crush you. Margins look good on paper. Reality? You’re a maintenance company that cleans cars on the side.

@aigleeson Louis, what are the top 5 things business owners should be doing? We purposely added more structured config and data to our website. I think it’s paying off but it’s so early to tell

@cursor_ai This looks very promising :)

Cursor 1.4 is out with a significantly more capable agent. It’s now much better at challenging and long-running tasks, especially in large codebases. We’ve also given the agent better tools, made token usage more efficient, and improved code editing accuracy.

@dr_cintas Amazing!
