Vulnerability Reports Are Not Special Anymore

Filippo Valsorda, a renowned security researcher, has authored a blog post arguing that the traditional model of vulnerability reporting is outdated and can be counterproductive.

He suggests new approaches to vulnerability disclosure that prioritize collaboration and transparency over secrecy. The goal is to foster an environment where developers can work more effectively without being hindered by constant disruptions.

Valsorda’s insights are particularly relevant for security teams looking to improve their processes.

Bunny DNS Makes Its Services Free

Blog All Posts News Performance Networking Tips Privacy AI We’re making Bunny DNS free: because a faster internet won’t build itself Posted by: Dejan Grofelnik Pelzel Joe Connolly June 24, 2026 At bunny.net, our mission has always been ambitious but focused: help make the internet hop faster.

To do that, we’ve built a massive global network spanning 119 locations and counting. Today, this network powers over 1.5 million websites and consistently delivers some of the fastest content delivery around the globe. But while deploying thousands of servers globally is an impressive feat on its own, the hardware itself does not explain how bunny.net is able to deliver such an impressive level of performance.

The real secret hides under the hood, embedded in the routing engine that directs every request, every user, and sends traffic exactly where it needs to go. That engine is Bunny DNS.

Originally, Bunny DNS was built with one simple goal: to build the most advanced routing engine possible, capable of analyzing every DNS query and directing it to the optimal destination for serving your content. Even to this day, it’s what makes Bunny CDN achieve it’s exceptional performance.

Four years ago, we took everything we had learned from designing and running this system and turned it into a product our users could use themselves. With Bunny DNS, we’ve upgraded DNS from being a basic record lookup table into a globally distributed, smart routing engine.

Modern programming languages reflect a consensus on the most important programming concepts, including lexically scoped variables, closures, objects, pattern matching, and type parametricity. Why, then, yet another programming language?

Beyond the basics, there are still more good ideas for programming constructs than can fit in any one language specification. Furthermore, specific domains benefit from language support that is tailored to the domain. Language extensibility helps to balance the competing goals of a manageable language size versus fit-to-purpose for a wide range of tasks.

Many newer languages include a macro system to enable extensibility, but other macro systems have not achieved the expressiveness and fluidity of macros as they exist within the Lisp tradition, which includes Racket. At the same time, that expressiveness has been difficult to detangle from Lisp’s minimalistic, parenthesis-oriented notation.

approachable and easy to use for everyday purposes (that do not need macros), which in part means a conventional syntax; and
