Cloudflare down: Websites such as X not working amid technical problems with the internet
“It is one of several companies that together form key elements of the nervous system of the internet – and so when its services fail, websites can effectively go offline, affecting millions of people and companies. ChatGPT and Elon Musk’s X social media platform were among the sites that appeared to be affected by Tuesday’s outage. By one estimate, Cloudflare provides services to one in five of the world’s websites.”

RED SKY INTERACTIVE CREATIVE GUIDELINES
by Joel Hladecek
Redefine the “Standard” (or Excuse me, your “multimedia’s” showing! )
Make the concept, interface, art and animation support and drive the interactive experience- Don’t rely on the development programs to do it. Any fool can set a Director transition. Immerse the viewer in your world.
Also, don’t buy into industry interface conventions- most of them were developed by some data engineer named “Earl” with a pocket protector and bad hemorrhoids. Red Sky pushes harder than our competitors to raise the quality beyond what the rest of the industry settles for. In other words, as an artist working for Red Sky, don’t ever say “We did it that way at (my old company), it’s a standard”, or you will be tarred, feathered, cast out and publicly humiliated. SET the standard.
Example: Don’t settle for simple “up and down” button graphics just because it’s commonplace in most multimedia and/or easy to do. Consider creating smoother or more expressive buttons with more frames of animation to further support the metaphor. If memory is an issue- cut something else damn it.

16 Billion Apple, Facebook, Google And Other Passwords Leaked — Act Now
“This is not just a leak – it’s a blueprint for mass exploitation,” the researchers said. And they are right. These credentials are ground zero for phishing attacks and account takeover. “These aren’t just old breaches being recycled,” they warned, “this is fresh, weaponizable intelligence at scale.”

Understanding AI and Its Capabilities
AI works by processing large amounts of data, recognizing patterns, and making predictions or decisions based on that information. The main types of AI include:
- Machine Learning (ML): AI models are trained on data to recognize patterns and improve over time. This includes deep learning, which uses neural networks to process complex data like images and language.
- Natural Language Processing (NLP): This allows AI to understand and generate human language, enabling applications like chatbots, translation tools, and voice assistants.
- Computer Vision: AI can analyze and interpret images or videos, used in facial recognition, medical imaging, and self-driving cars.
- Reinforcement Learning: AI learns by trial and error, receiving rewards or penalties for its actions, similar to how humans learn new skills.
In general, AI doesn’t “think” like humans—it processes data statistically to make predictions or generate responses. Some AI systems, like mine, use a mix of pre-trained knowledge and real-time internet searches to provide answers.
