You mean Cloudflare spun some BS marketing to make this seem bigger and more interesting than it was? Color my shocked.

Why do you feel the need to repost your own blog posts here?

LOL, no. After the Reader-is-dead news cycle ends, the money will stop flowing, and the real work (supporting paying users) begins.

I don't think you understand. All design builds on other design. Maybe this guy was "inspired" by LayerVault, maybe not. The problem is that a DMCA takedown is like using a sledgeh…

LOL.

Akamai will talk to you and even put you on the non-ghetto maps ('b') for $3k/month. You just have to know who to talk to. Cloudflare is for people who don't care what CDNs actuall…

Hehe. Downvoted for pointing out Cloudflare are amateurs. Welcome to the club.

People have been doing this for at least 10 years. CloudFlare is a YC thing, so that's why this is even news.

If I use this to store my "user data", how do I do any meaningful server-side computation on that data?

A much better comparison would be a self hosted properly tuned PostgreSQL instance vs RedShift. :)

Dynadot.

That's because it's not possible to make money with email clients. And this is just Sparrow 2.0. There's no way for these guys to make money. The only option is an exit, which is w…

The PS3 has actually overtaken the X360. Also note that the PS3 came out a full year after the X360... so... yeah. :)

Claiming that the Xbox (360? since that's what's shown in the screenshots) crushed its competition is disingenuous at best, since the Wii outsold it massively, and the PS3 has outs…

They lock it in and hope the price goes up so they can make a profit. This is pretty much exactly how FX wire services work.
