How do you see this fitting with AWS’s Strands Box from last week? Box isn’t hosted compute. It’s an open-source sandbox plus a policy engine that checks shell, Python, egress, and MCP calls, and swaps credential placeholders for real secrets at the gateway. That’s the broker layer ekorondy and talkarimli are asking about.

Two questions: Could a policy layer like Box run inside your gVisor sandboxes, or would it need your full-VM tier? And on price, have you compared against AgentCore Runtime? It bills CPU only while active, which targets the same bursty pattern you’re optimizing for.

I think the Watch is a better precedent than the Apple TV. The product page already borrows its vocabulary: customizable faces, Live Activities, and “compatible third-party audio and video apps from your iPhone.” That’s how WatchKit started in 2015. Third-party Watch apps ran as extensions on the paired iPhone, went native with watchOS 2 later that year, and didn’t get an on-device App Store until watchOS 6 in 2019.

So I wouldn’t expect a HomeView App Store soon. I’d expect iPhone-hosted extensions first (widgets, Live Activities, CarPlay-style templates for audio and video), probably at WWDC. That also spares developers who are already scrambling to support the Duo.

I guess I'm not understanding the value here - to compete with Google and the likes, the scale, cost and complexity would be huge. Appreciate new entrants in an existing field but not seeing this one.

Agree 100%. At my company, I've deployed the open source version of JSONLint.com internally to prevent any accidental exposure of internal or confidential data.

Exactly - this is a silly choice. Making it inaccessible to users of Office 365 for business is a terrible default choice.

I have friends and family members that suffer anxiety ranging from minor to debilitating anxiety where they feel like they cannot function. As davidkim suggests below, meditation, sleep and even exercise can help alleviate some of the symptoms but you also have to know that anxiety/OCD can be caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain and you simply cannot wish it away. Medicine may be appropriate in your situation and so I would start with a consultation with your doctor. No one should suffer and miss out on the wonders of life.

Is there a JSON parsing component that I'm missing? I would think a simple JSON component would allow you to hook up any number of API's together to build an application. Assuming it's on your roadmap.

Yes - check out https://www.fsisac.com/

I use mod_security for personal sites and Cisco NetScaler as a WAF, load-balancer and SSL offloader at work. If I was given the choice, I would use HAProxy and mod_security as I'm not too impressed with NetScaler.

I'm curious as to why Square would spend engineering talent on a distributed CI system when you can buy something like Jetbrains TeamCity that does what they wanted to do. This is not meant as a slam and I am also a developer who loves to build things but I would think Square and other companies for that matter would want to apply their limited engineering talents in solving bigger problems that grow the business.

Not looking for a flame war - just curious to get different perspectives.

Great job Ash. Congratulations. I got to see a little bit of the book development happen via GitHub and it was great to see how crowd-sourcing technical review/editor function could potentially work in the future.

Congratulations again.

Is there a freeware or commercial WYSIWYG editor that supports pasting of images like this awesome tool?

I have a use-case where users are creating charts in Excel and want to paste them into a HTML textarea and WYSIWYG editor that supported paste of images from the clipboard would be awesome. Thanks
