Hey SF people - Iโm not sure who needs to hear this but... Feeling down? Anxious? Go outside. Walk uphill. At every decision point, choose uphill. You will soon find yourself at an empty park with a lovely view. SF is *littered* with these hilltop parks. There are dozens. Long ago, the top of almost every hill in the city was set aside as open space. You can spend your entire SF career exploring them and never run out. It was often the only thing keeping me sane. They are a wonderful resource that Iโm constantly surprised nobody knows about.










Build long-running agents with more control over agent execution. New capabilities in the Agents SDK: โข Run agents in controlled sandboxes โข Inspect and customize the open-source harness โข Control when memories are created and where theyโre stored






Vercel Sandboxes are now the fastest sandbox using real VMs as security boundary based on the @computesdk benchmark. The team has been absolutely cooking on this. And the best thing: Because we have a unified Fluid Compute stack across Sandbox, Builds, and Functions these wins are often shared across the stack. On the feature side there is a really exciting roadmap ahead as well. My favorites (all driven by feature requests from our customers): - Persistent sandboxes (in beta, GA immanent) - The fully mutable firewall also becomes fully programmable




The best outcome for humanity is many strong AIs competing for the top spot. Vercel is proudly powering meta.ai and the infrastructure that made today's model release possible.
