I'm loving the synthy 80s ident. @eastdakota any chance of a link to the musician who wrote it?
A quick shazam yields "Particle House Feat. Le June - I Don't Mind." Cloudflare seems to be using the instrumental version [found here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=63P67ZdKhXk ]
Genuinely curious, My possibly biased perception is that people in Europe are more "internationally aware" (for lack of a better word) than those in the US. e.g. a website that is built in Europe but likely to attract international interest will include a timezone. The schedule[0] for this just has dates and times. I have no idea when anything is, though some of it looks interesting. Is there a "default" timezone tha…
But I agree - it should mention timezone or if it's local time. I saw "AM/PM" and also assumed it was some "stupid" American time.

In my experience it's usually EST timezone (Eastern Time Zone). Currently that's UTC-4.
I'm a generally technical person and I'm simply flat out uninterested in video content - the stuff that will be on this sounds broadly interesting to me but I'd rather read it in article format. I understand video "performs" well in a lot of contexts (and thus is of particular interest to marketing people) but I am always surprised when content targeted broadly towards the technical community is done in a video-first…

I've noticed certain communities that live on the edge of tech-savvy do this a lot. In particular emulator and jailbreak communities for video game consoles refuse to keep up-to-date text guides on things. Everything is done on YouTube which is such a terrible format when you need to follow 30-step lists and pause to click on many links throughout the process to download software, firmware and exploits.
Honestly, a hard to follow YouTube video is better than digging through hundreds of pages of forum posts in attempts to find the right one. Of course clear, concise, and findable documentation is always better, but at least if someone is doing it on youtube there is demonstrable evidence that the process functioned once.
Keeping an article up to date is the reason wikis were invented

Never had any video begin playing as fast as those in this. Even faster than YouTube.

What are those concerns?
Not OP, but I’d bet they meant that deaf or hard-of-hearing people should be able to enjoy the programs
This is really important. I have moderate hearing loss but can hear 'okay' with a hearing aid. I place where I worked had a lot of mandatory training that involved video presentations. They introduced one new video and I realised that there was one bit where some important info (it was needed to pass the post video test) was only presented in spoken form, with no transcript or captions. I could follow it but a person with profound hearing loss would have struggled. Because I am sensitised to accessibility issues I decided to make a fuss about this.
In a superb piece of irony, the subject of the training video was actually diversity issues in the workplace. I therefore contacted the training department saying "Did you know that your diversity training discriminates against deaf people?" To give them credit, they said 'oops our bad' and quickly added captions.
