We love a nice dollop of whimsy in our tech demos!

A2A is such a good protocol to have in your agentic toolbelt. We are quite happy this Google project is now part of the @linuxfoundation with governance by many different organizations.

Happy to be a strategic member of the @EclipseFdn

@FFmpeg @AnthropicAI @OpenAI We're honestly on a mission to get more Googlers to contribute to more open source projects this year. We'd love to see that 'maybe' become a 'has helped' too.

AI companies have open source initiatives. But critical infrastructure that doesn't fit the small-JS-lib-with-lots-of-GitHub-stars mold gets skipped. CC: @AnthropicAI @OpenAI @GoogleOSS your tools found real bugs in our code. Maybe help us fix the next ones before they happen?

Recently, @depthfirstlabs with AI found 21 security issues. Legit, credit where it's due, some of them were serious. Whilst disclosure is nice, and some fixes were even sent out, like with the Mythos-found issues, the best would have been to avoid having the issues altogether.

We're an open-source project consisting of volunteer programmers, comfortable with C, assembly, and Perl. Most of us still program by hand. It's hard to justify spending thousands a month on AI agents scanning. We've relied on support from Coverity or Google's OSS fuzz to help.

GKE Agent Sandbox is now GA—giving you a secure, scalable foundation for your agent workloads. + introducing Agent Substrate, a new open-source project aimed at continuing to push the limits of agentic infrastructure density. Learn more → goo.gle/4uOfXus

Node.js Interactive is back. If you've been part of the Node.js community for a while, you know what that name means — honest technical conversations, maintainers at the center, and real talk about what it takes to build production systems at scale. This August, Node.js Interactive returns as a dedicated track inside RenderATL 2026 in Atlanta, Georgia (August 12–13). It's included with a RenderATL conference pass. Expect programming on: → Node.js runtime performance → Security and supply chain resilience → AI-enabled developer tooling → Open source sustainability and platform engineering Whether you're a Node.js contributor, infrastructure engineer, or senior technical lead, this is worth your time.
