Update: @OVHcloud support thread is still doing cardio. Meanwhile, European cloud providers are DM’ing me: “Come test us.” Dangerous offer. @Hetzner_Online = base @zeropsio = coding agents Others enter next. This is now Europe’s cloud audition. No sovereignty blabla: My cloud resources even on your platform is still mind; respect my property; Show me uptime. Show me support. Let me sleep.

I started worrying about US dominance in tech infra. So I did the founder thing: I stopped complaining and started testing European alternatives. First use case: AI inference. I built a certification layer to prove that the GPU handling my request is in Europe and that the data path does not leave Europe. @OVHcloud first. @Scaleway next. More providers after that. It worked. Then I started publishing a European tech stack list. But there was one stupid problem: The repo was on GitHub which too American. So I deployed Forgejo on an OVH cluster and started working on a scalable European Git setup that other builders could also use. This morning, OVHcloud suspended all my projects. They will be deleted in 7 days. You cannot make this up. This is the beginning of my journey to make European infra actually usable for developers and startups. Not policy papers. Not conference panels. Not sovereignty theatre. Just working infra. I’ll keep you posted.

exoscale.com Great UIUX at our partner @Exoscale 's cloud platform. Simple. Absolute reduction of cognitive load. US Hyperscalers could learn a few things.

@alaintiri @Adev @L_ThinkTank yw. J'ai parfois l'impression que la communication marketing des sociétés européennes est noyée dans le bruit des big tech US. Faut qu'on améliore le SNR :) .

[ 🇪🇺 UNION EUROPÉENNE | 🇺🇸 ÉTATS-UNIS ] 🔸 L’Europe a « perdu l'accès internet » et ne peut pas stocker ses données entièrement sur son sol, avertit Miguel De Bruycker, directeur du Centre pour la cybersécurité de la Belgique, en raison de la domination des infrastructures numériques par des entreprises américaine. Il estime que cette dépendance n’est pas un risque immédiat, mais qu’elle prive l’UE de technologies clés comme le cloud et l’IA. Il appelle à bâtir des capacités européennes, sur le modèle d’Airbus.

@Adev @L_ThinkTank Avoir un espace de stockage n'est pas suffisant. Il faut pouvoir exploiter ces données dans des data warehouse et des espaces de calcul distribués de qualité.

@Zirconicav @Adev @L_ThinkTank imho, cet argument ne tient pas du tout. Le trafic de paiement ne passe pas exclusivement par des cartes de crédit. Les transferts inter-banques existent.

Nouvel article de blog sur Kubernetes. "K8S c’est bien que pour les grosses entreprises", "On est pas Netflix/ Google", "Sans milliers de conteneurs ça sert à rien"…​ Vous avez déjà vu ces commentaires sur K8S ? Ces gens ont tout faux. mcorbin.fr/posts/2025-12-…

I am a Microsoft security architect. In 1994, researchers discovered RC4 was fundamentally broken. We made it the default cipher in Windows anyway. By 2000, every machine on Earth was running it. We called it "battle-tested." Technically true. It lost every battle. In 2013, more researchers confirmed it was still broken. We published a knowledge base article thanking them for their passion. In 2015, the entire industry formally deprecated it. We kept it enabled by default. Compatibility is more important than security. Security is just compatibility with not being hacked. Hospitals ran their patient records through it. Banks authenticated their transactions with it. Fortune 500 companies trusted their crown jewels to it. The Ascension breach happened. 5.6 million patient records. 140 hospitals offline. Ransomware walked through our cipher like it wasn't there. It basically wasn't. Senator Wyden called it "gross cybersecurity negligence." He demanded an FTC investigation. We released a statement thanking him for his continued partnership. After 26 years of careful consideration, we've made a decision. We're going to disable RC4 by default. In mid-2026. We're giving everyone 18 months notice. Because we believe in thoughtful transitions. We've been thoughtfully transitioning since the Clinton administration. Two Clintons could have run for president in the time we've been "evaluating options." Some things are just hard to kill off. Like a legacy cipher. Or institutional momentum. Or the phrase "we take security seriously." We do take it seriously. We just don't take it urgently. Urgency is for startups. We're a mature organization. We mature our vulnerabilities like fine wine. 26 years. That's not negligence. That's commitment.

@BoolKiRool @AlexandreGrdl @nrzkt Le produit venait d'être publié sur notre marketplace lorsque le modèle de licensing a changé. Oui, ils ont négocié avec Hashicorp de façon à maintenir le service.
