coding and lots of coffee. bringing @blooio_messages to life. one message at a time

Cloudflare’s mission is to fork the entire developer ecosystem and destroy open source. Vinext was an excuse to swindle developers into using their proprietary runtimes instead of @nodejs. It shipped with 10 vulnerabilities that they cheerfully handed to a .gov website. Now they’ve done it again. They can’t run just-bash, because it’s open source software that runs on @nodejs. It has to work “at the edge”, which is a thing no one wants (We learned the hard way… Not even the Node core developers they hired to work on Workers instead want it!)

Most tech podcasts are so fucking boring. The host is either some person who couldn't hack it in a operating role (VC, engineer, founder, etc.) or some VC who is just doing it to get deal flow. No one cares what Bill Gurley thinks about AI, they want to hear about why he fucked over TK at Uber. No one cares what Chamath thinks about politics, they want to hear about what happened at Social Capital and why he closed the fund. No one cares what Keith Rabois has to say about Miami, they want to hear about what happened at OpenDoor. No one cares what Sam Altman thinks about AGI, they want to hear about why he was fired from YC and (initially) OpenAI. But instead we get these boring, sanitized conversations about why SaaS companies are or are not dead. Topics no one gives us a shit about.
