What Hacker News says

It would be great to see this github account restored so that we could hopefully get *some* kind of public update on the Cloudflare Book he announced on HN over two years ago, which he collected money for early access, but has then provided *zero* updates about, and which has zero indication of ever being finished. It was on github here: https://github.com/skerkour/cloudflare-for-speed-and-securit... Though it's currently unavailable of course. What's up with that Sylvain? If your github account is restored, will you finally either give some kind of update to confirm that this was not a scam, and/or refund folks' money if they request it? You want to hear from a real Human [sic] here in your case, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who wants to hear from a real Human (you) about wtf is going on with this mystery book whose completion seems

In Tel HN: GitHub account locked just after launching my startup. Any help?

Show HN: I'm writing a book – Cloudflare for Speed and Security

Hey HN, I'm so excited to finally share with you what I've been working on recently. One month ago I asked my audience what they wanted to learn about Websites, APIs and Servers security [0]. From the feedback, I've identified a few recurring pain points that I've started to address (and many more) in this new book. From theory to practice, you will learn how low-level network and security protocols work. How to configure Cloudflare to secure and scale your web applications. How to create serverless applications and which database to chose with serverless functions. How to optimize your caching policies. How to distribute videos globally. And a lot of other things, all of that while significantly reducing your cloud bill. The book is far from ready, but I still wanted to release it as "Early Access". Between writing, editing, and technic

al reviewing, it can take some time to complete a book. That's why I release my books before they are fully completed - so you can start learning before the book is 100% ready, provide feedback, and help me to refine the book's content. Rest assured, all future updates are free of charge. The final publication date is set for mid-January 2024. Bonuses: If you purchase Cloudflare for Speed and Security before November 4, 2023, you'll get my bestseller, Black Hat Rust [1], for free! Yes, you read it right, two books for less than the price of one! Furthermore, all early-access supporters will receive the checklist that I use to quickly set up a new domain on Cloudflare, ensuring the right balance between security, performance, and user experience. Finally, the price is likely to increase once the book transitions out of Early Access, so don't wait until it's too late to get your copy ;) As always, the code accompanying the book will be freely available on GitHub [2] Sylvain [0] https://kerkour.com/what-do-you-want-to-learn-about-web-and-...
