Cloudflare 1.1.1.1 Incident on July 14, 2025
https://blog.cloudflare.com/cloudflare-1-1-1-1-incident-on-july-14-2025/
On July 14th, 2025, Cloudflare made a change to our service topologies that caused an outage for 1.1.1.1 on the edge, resulting in downtime for 62 minutes for customers using the 1.1.1.1 public DNS Resolver as well as intermittent degradation of service for Gateway DNS.
We’re deeply sorry for this outage.
This outage was the result of an internal configuration error and not the result of an attack or a BGP hijack. In this blog post, we’re going to talk about what the failure was, why it occurred, and what we’re doing to make sure this doesn’t happen again.

Tog's paradox
https://www.votito.com/methods/togs-paradox/
Tog’s Paradox (also known as The Complexity Paradox or Tog’s ComplexityParadox) is an observation that products aiming to simplify a task for users tend toinspire new, more complex tasks. It’s one of the key reasons for thesymptom of requirements changing after delivery in enterprise softwareproducts, and for feature creep in consumer products. Tog’s Paradox alsoexplains why it’s futile to try to completely nail down requirements for asoftware product, as the product itself will have an impact on the users,causing them to demand new functions.

Monitoring energy usage with smart plugs Prometheus and Grafana
https://ounapuu.ee/posts/2024/05/02/smartplugs/
This post isn’t a detailed line-by-line tutorial on how to set up each individual piece of the setup as those types of guides tend to get out of date really easily, but if you know your way around Linux and the command line, then you can definitely replicate this setup on your own.
Over the past few years I’ve been interested in learning about how much energy my computing setup and home appliances use. I’ve used a simple digital energy meter before to get instantaneous readings, but that was not ideal for monitoring how an electrical appliance consumes power over a longer time period.
