Show HN: Pingora with Edward and Noah from Cloudflare (Netstack.fm Podcast Ep15)
In Episode 15 of netstack.fm, I sat down with Edward and Noah from Cloudflare to unpack the design of Pingora, the Rust based proxy framework that now powers Cloudflare’s origin facing traffic. The discussion covers why Cloudflare moved away from NGINX, how Pingora differs from Oxy, and what it takes to operate a high performance global proxy at massive scale. Listeners will learn about connection reuse strategies, dynamic traffic handling, gRPC and protocol translation, custom HTTP implementations, TLS backend choices, and the practical trade offs of Rust, Tokio, and work stealing in real production systems. It is an episode full of deep technical insights into building and operating modern networking infrastructure.
Note that this episode was recorded prior to the recent cloudflare outage and as such this is not something we discussed in the episode. If you are interested to learn more about that I can recommend their excellent post-mortem blog post which already circulated around here. See: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45973709

Can We Trust AI as Customer Support?
I’m curious how founders, engineers, and support folks here think about this.
A lot of customer service is moving toward AI agents—handling FAQs, troubleshooting flows, and sometimes even resolving tickets end-to-end.
But can we fully trust AI to act as front-line customer support?
If yes, what convinced you? If no, what are the biggest blockers—accuracy, edge cases, empathy, accountability?
Would love to hear real experiences from teams that have tried replacing (or augmenting) human support.
