A Biography of Lee Holloway, the Architect of Cloudflare's Technology (Part 1)

seconding the wired piece — worth noting he's not dead, that's the awful part. FTD, in a care facility, personality gone years before the body.

Highly recommend the Wired story about Lee: https://www.wired.com/story/lee-holloway-devastating-decline...

Long but totally heartbreaking.

Repeating myself here but anyone who has not yet watched the whole 2024 series of Prof. Sapolsky "Human Behavioural Biology" lectures series... really should.

RIP Lee Holloway

I can't read this. The writing style is awful. Could be machine translated or just AI filling in from notes.

had no idea anycast at cloudflare traced back to him. does part 2 get into what happened after

What is with the bold sections? Is this just AI or are you trying to make sure I didn’t fall asleep reading the bland plaintext?

you have note.com . that's insane
