There are many valid criticisms of Cloudflare but this article ain’t it.
That article has been debunked already. OP wanted to run an online casino and wanted to circumvent Cloudflare policies. Cloudflare simply asked them to show up with their own IP and instead OP went on to slander them.
No, it hasn't. There is no excuse for what Cloudflare did which is to suddenly ask a seemingly locked-in customer for a lot more money under the threat of canceling them.
India, where minorities become Bollywood superstars, beloved musicians, richest men in Asia, and even presidents, has been notoriously hostile to minorities? I don’t think any other country in Asia has a track record like India when it comes to minorities. Let’s not get rhetoric and false propaganda into our way of critical thinking. India has flaws but it is steadily proving to be a responsible power in that geography.
If you look at the facts: The only exodus happened in India was in Kashmir.
At the protocol level, any account can verify any other account. If you have one, you can verify anyone you'd like right now. The NYT can verify any account, even ones from those organizations, or not even from a news organization.
The only difference is that Bluesky won't show a blue check for just any verification, only ones from accounts they trust. That's a social relationship, not a technical one, and so I'm sure if the NYT decided to go rogue, Bluesky would have them not be an input into the blue check any more.
I have no real insight. I do know that I am a big fan of Bluesky/atproto and post about it fairly regularly, and enjoy being friendly with the devs. They verified just over 200 accounts, and most of them are news organizations and their employees, and the rest are programmers who regularly use the site and/or engage with the protocol.
I think this makes sense, because 1. most people want this sort of feature for news and 2. the kinds of people they verified technically are likely to play around with it and see how sound it is, which is who I'd want to be kicking the tires.
I'm not sure when they'll verify more people, but this is only the beginning, for sure.
Based on the initial commits and the logs after that surely there’s someone unethical person at MS. This might have been brushed under the carpet and due to sheer luck it reached HN frontpage.

This might work for few jumps but eventually Hiring managers will see this pattern and flag you as a flight risk. Please Take this advice with a grain of salt.
Yes. A decade ago it was minimum 3 years for individual contributors who are not super specialised in what they are doing -- if you worked for less multiple times in a row they would be asking for explanation. Now it is 2 years.
I will also mention it is different for contractors/freelancers and will also depend on what you do. I don't hide I change projects frequently.
What I do is I offer references to my past managers. I tell them I will give them references as long as they are happy to stick with me throughout hiring process until they make their offer conditional on me giving them the references and them being happy after they talk to my past managers.
I do this because I don't want too many people calling those guys. I think it is fair arrangement.
around one offer every two days is the usual, some of them are absolute crap, some so so but some are not bad.
i am on freelancermap, linkedin and xing.
have to say since covid worked exclusively in banking and insurance, so not so sure what happended outside of my bubble.
what is keeping you from doing it?
