One of the most wonderful aspects of math is how deep we can get by studying seemingly trivial questions. Consider the roots of unity, where "unity" simply means the number 1. Basics: roots of unity for real numbers Studying the roots of unity usually begins in middle school: what is …
Identity alone doesn't guarantee a bot will behave responsibly. We are introducing a system to continuously evaluate whether Verified bots honor site preferences, like robots.txt and HTTP 429s, ensuring they remain accountable over time.
What can digital transformation teach us about AI adoption? Paul Boag revisits his book Digital Adaptation to show how lessons from the past can help organizations navigate the challenges of AI today. - AI - Workflow - Business

Meta’s newest app, Forum, is for anyone who wants to go deeper into the conversations in their Facebook groups. To build Forum, Meta engineers adopted a whole new way of working by bringing an AI agent into the development cycle. We’re sharing insights into what it took to build Forum with agentic AI: how we [...] Read More... The post How Meta Built Forum With AI-Native Engineering appeared first
Every four years, the World Cup becomes the largest planned stress test of our infrastructure. This year it also set an all-time record! There are a few moments throughout the year, like New Years Eve, that really let us see the collective impact of everything we’ve built — but none are bigger than the quadrennial [...] Read More...

While adding MySQL support to Hyperdrive, we found a subtle protocol bug when caching query results. Here is how we tracked down a 0.001% rate error and made Hyperdrive MySQL generally available.
When strikes hit Yandex data centers, many assumed Russian bot operations went dark. Cloudflare data reveals that while search crawling stopped, malicious bots simply migrated to other networks.
In September, we experienced two incidents that resulted in degraded performance across GitHub services.
Our new repo star history API now provides trends without returning individual identities or requiring unbounded database work. These are the engineering tradeoffs we made.
A deep dive into how D1 architected its control plane to scale and manage millions of databases, while keeping data plane query operations at the edge. We share guiding principles on how to build on the Developer Platform effectively.
Our strategies to optimize our data pipeline throughput without compromising data quality.
This blog talks about CUDA and PostgreSQL, twins from different world, and how they share a similar mechanism. This is a thought blog, and you can read to know more.
GitHub’s context-aware secret classifier improves detection quality, raises weighted acceptance by 11.5%, and reduces median scan execution time by 86%.
Last year, we introduced GEM, the industry’s largest recommendation system (RecSys) foundation model. GEM established Meta’s first LLM-inspired paradigm for ads recommendation, driving major performance gains. Building on this foundation, our next goal is to further scale both compute and intelligence transfer with next-generation hardware, and expand this capability across Meta’s entire ads ecosy
Logpush now supports Transformers, allowing teams to filter, redact, and reshape log streams using SQL before export. Powered by Apache DataFusion and Apache Arrow, Transformers apply those changes directly to log data before it reaches the destination.
Learn how to add custom instructions and skills to your repository, use custom agents, and connect MCP servers like Playwright.
Meta has begun deploying Media over QUIC (MoQ), an emerging open protocol for real-time video streaming at scale. MoQ will help simplify our protocol stack for live streaming video and enhance overall user experience for live video. We’re sharing how we shipped MoQ on Instagram Live ingest, and what the future looks like from here. [...] Read More... The post Shipping Media Over QUIC at Meta Scale
At the 2026 Open Compute Project Global Summit, Meta is sharing the next generation of open networking infrastructure, including: Our first liquid-cooled network rack (IcePack), and 102.4T switch platform (IceCube). Flattened Planar Fabric (FPF), a multiplane backend scale-out fabric that fundamentally changes how GPUs connect to the network MetaRoCE, our open-source AI transport protocol. Launchi
At Meta, we’ve built a system that enhances ads recommendations by leveraging idle inference capacity in our fleet. Two elasticity levers in the system allow ads recommendation work to expand across opportunistic capacity, without compromising baseline performance. This post describes how we designed and now operate the system at Meta’s scale and how it drives [...] Read More... The post Turning O
On-demand CPU and memory profiling for Cloudflare Workers and Durable Objects is now available. Now you can generate interactive flamegraphs directly in production to quickly track down memory leaks and performance bottlenecks.
We are expanding the Clef decision model family with Clef-omni, natively processing audio, video, images, and text in a single pipeline. We’ve also lowered Clef-flash pricing and boosted Clef inference speeds by up to 2.0x.
The barriers to building software have collapsed. Today, anyone can build. Hackathons are a great place to start learning.
We redesigned Cloudflare Radar to make real-time global traffic and outage data accessible to a wider audience — including journalists, less technical researchers, and everyday users. By introducing an interactive map and standardized components, we simplified navigation while preserving technical depth.
As we kick off Cybersecurity Awareness Month, the GitHub Bug Bounty team spotlights @vaib25vicky, exploring their methodology, techniques, and experiences hacking on GitHub.
Introducing Spotify Technology.
Cloudflare Managed Defense uses a team of specialized AI agents built on Workers and global network telemetry to analyze security alerts. By separating deterministic evidence collection from model inference, the system delivers grounded recommendations to Managed Defense Analysts.
Monte Carlo simulations (or methods ) is the technique of applying randomness and the Law of large numbers to the solution of various scientific and engineering problems. One of its first documented uses was by Stanislaw Ulam and John von Neumann for nuclear weapon simulations after WWII [1] . In this post …
Developers aren’t becoming more careless; they’re being outpaced. The tools that let developers create more software should also take on more of the work of protecting it.
On October 11, 2026, the DNS root switches to a new key-signing key (KSK-2024). Learn what this means for you, and how RFC 8509 trust anchor sentinels allow you to test whether your DNS resolver is ready for the rollover.
