Tembok Besar Gorgan: Benteng Kuno Terpanjang Iran

Sejarah dan Keunikan Tembok Besar Gorgan

Tembok Besar Gorgan merupakan struktur pertahanan kuno yang membentang di timur laut Iran. Dibangun sekitar abad ke-5 Masehi, tembok ini menjadi simbol kekuatan militer dinasti Sassanid. Menakjubkannya, panjang tembok ini hampir setara dengan 200 km, menjadikannya terpanjang kedua setelah Tembok Besar Tiongkok.

Tembok Gorgan dirancang untuk melindungi wilayah dari serangan nomaden dari utara. Selain itu, benteng ini menunjukkan kemampuan teknik sipil yang tinggi, dengan bahan bangunan yang tahan lama, termasuk bata merah dan batu alam lokal. Dengan parit besar dan menara pengawas setiap beberapa ratus meter, pertahanan ini memberikan kontrol strategis atas rute perdagangan dan migrasi.

Struktur dan Arsitektur Tembok

Tembok Besar Gorgan memiliki arsitektur yang kompleks. Panjangnya membentang dari Laut Kaspia hingga Pegunungan Pishkamar, melintasi lembah dan dataran tinggi. Benteng ini memiliki parit lebar di satu sisi dan dinding batu setinggi lebih dari 6 meter di sisi lain.

Worth Reading: AI and Knowledge Stagnation

Another week, another interesting AI article (is anyone writing about anything else these days?), this time from Noah Smith (another author worth following). I found this gem hidden in his weekly roundup:

Instead of trying to write a piece of code from scratch, or prove a math theorem from scratch, or figure out some piece of knowledge for yourself, you just ask AI to do it all for you. So everyone ends up getting the right answers to questions whose answers are already known, so they don’t end up adding anything new.

CSS & vertical rhythm for text, images, and tables

Vertical rhythm aligns lines to a consistent spacing cadence down the page. It creates a predictable flow for the eye to follow. Thanks to the rlh CSS unit, vertical rhythm is now easier to implement for text.1 But illustrations and tables can disrupt the layout. The amateur typographer in me wants to follow Bringhurst’s wisdom:

Headings, subheads, block quotations, footnotes, illustrations, captions and other intrusions into the text create syncopations and variations against the base rhythm of regularly leaded lines. These variations can and should add life to the page, but the main text should also return after each variation precisely on beat and in phase.

Robert Bringhurst, The Elements of Typographic Style

Text

Three factors govern vertical rhythm: font size, line height and margin or padding. Let’s set our baseline with an 18-pixel font and a 1.5 line height:

html {
  font-size: 112.5%;
  line-height: 1.5;
}
h1, h2, h3, h4 {
  font-size: 100%;
}
html, body,
h1, h2, h3, h4,
p, blockquote,
dl, dt, dd, ol Continue reading

Making Rust Workers reliable: panic and abort recovery in wasm‑bindgen

Rust Workers run on the Cloudflare Workers platform by compiling Rust to WebAssembly, but as we’ve found, WebAssembly has some sharp edges. When things go wrong with a panic or an unexpected abort, the runtime can be left in an undefined state. For users of Rust Workers, panics were historically fatal, poisoning the instance and possibly even bricking the Worker for a period of time.

While we were able to detect and mitigate these issues, there remained a small chance that a Rust Worker would unexpectedly fail and cause other requests to fail along with it. An unhandled Rust abort in a Worker affecting one request might escalate into a broader failure affecting sibling requests or even continue to affect new incoming requests. The root cause of this was in wasm-bindgen, the core project that generates the Rust-to-JavaScript bindings Rust Workers depend on, and its lack of built-in recovery semantics.

In this post, we’ll share how the latest version of Rust Workers handles comprehensive Wasm error recovery that solves this abort-induced sandbox poisoning. This work has been contributed back into wasm-bindgen as part of our collaboration within the wasm-bindgen organization formed last year. First with panic=unwind support, which ensures that Continue reading

Ten Years of ITNOG

I spent the last two days in Bologna at ITNOG 10 in the excellent company of Italian networking engineers (many of them personal friends) and a few guests from around the world. As always, the organizers and the program committee didn’t disappoint – it was a smoothly organized, lovely event full of interesting presentations. Thanks a million to everyone involved; I’ll definitely be back!

Now for the highlights, starting with the ultimate catnip for the differently attentive: running two presentations in parallel on the same screen with the soundtrack distributed via headphones. I’ve never seen anything like that, and while it looked weird (I have no idea how the presenters took it), it turned out to be very useful, as you could easily tune out AI-washing presentations and switch to something more interesting. On the other hand, you could be faced with a hard choice of having to select one of two excellent presentations:

KubeVirt Networking: How to Preserve VM IP Addresses During Migration

Organisations are re-evaluating their VM infrastructure. The economics have shifted, the tooling has matured, and the case for running two separate platforms, one for containers, one for VMs, is getting harder to justify. Platform teams that spent years managing hypervisor infrastructure are being asked to consolidate, and most are landing on the same answer: Kubernetes.

KubeVirt makes running VMs on Kubernetes possible. But KubeVirt networking – what happens to a VM’s IP address, VLAN, and security posture when it lands in a cluster – is where most migration plans hit a wall. The reasons go beyond cost:

  • Most enterprises already run Kubernetes. Containers are already there. Adding VMs to the same platform consolidates tooling, lifecycle management, networking models, and security policy into a single operational model.
  • Two platforms means double the overhead. Separate infrastructure means separate upgrade cycles, separate monitoring, separate network configuration, and separate on-call runbooks. Platform consolidation has direct operational value.
  • Kubernetes is mature enough. KubeVirt has reached the point where it’s a viable production choice for enterprise VM workloads.

The decision to migrate is being made. The question is how to do it without causing chaos.

KubeVirt extends the Kubernetes API with new custom resource Continue reading

Moving past bots vs. humans

For us humans to interact with the online world, we need a gateway: keyboard, screen, browser, device. What is called "human detection" online are patterns that humans use when interacting with such devices. These patterns have changed in recent years: a startup CEO now uses their browser to summarize the news, a tech enthusiast automates the process to book their concert tickets when sales open at night, someone who's visually impaired enables accessibility on their screen reader, and companies route their employee traffic through zero trust proxies.

At the same time, website owners are still looking to protect their data, manage their resources, control content distribution, and prevent abuse. These problems aren’t solved by knowing whether the client is a human or a bot: There are wanted bots and there are unwanted humans. These problems require knowing intent and behavior. The ability to detect automation remains critical. However, as the distinctions between actors become blurry, the systems we build now should accommodate a future where "bots vs. humans" is not the important data point.

What actually matters is not humanity in the abstract, but questions such as: is this attack traffic, is that crawler load proportional to the traffic it Continue reading

Building the agentic cloud: everything we launched during Agents Week 2026

Today marks the end of our first Agents Week, an innovation week dedicated entirely to the age of agents. It couldn’t have been more timely: over the past year, agents have swiftly changed how people work. Coding agents are helping developers ship faster than ever. Support agents resolve tickets end-to-end. Research agents validate hypotheses across hundreds of sources in minutes. And people aren't just running one agent: they're running several in parallel and around the clock.

As Cloudflare's CTO Dane Knecht and VP of Product Rita Kozlov noted in our welcome to Agents Week post, the potential scale of agents is staggering: If even a fraction of the world's knowledge workers each run a few agents in parallel, you need compute capacity for tens of millions of simultaneous sessions. The one-app-serves-many-users model the cloud was built on doesn't work for that. But that's exactly what developers and businesses want to do: build agents, deploy them to users, and run them at scale.

Getting there means solving problems across the entire stack. Agents need compute that scales from full operating systems to lightweight isolates. They need security and identity built into how they run.  They need an agent toolbox Continue reading
