This is from the Cloudflare CEO. We received almost a million applicants for 1,100 paid internships this summer. The interns we hired are extremely qualified and AI native. They're all builders or sellers, and we expect the majority will get full-time offers. If you're coming out of college to find a job, especially if you hang out on the internet all the time, and especially if you play video games, we just hired a 17-year-old and he's very cracked out. And then we're probably going to hire his friend as well, who's probably only 17 or 18 years old, as kind of software engineers because they're pretty cracked out and they're pretty good.
