Agents need more than just a container to scale. We're introducing @cloudflare/computer, an agent runtime that dynamically orchestrates between fast, efficient isolates and full Linux containers to give every agent a computer of its own. https://cfl.re/4w8ZcuX

Your agent needs a computer, not a container — introducing @cloudflare/computer

The @cloudflare/computer package provides an agent runtime where the details and mechanics of what code runs in an isolate, and what runs in a container sandbox are handled by the platform.

You can now call methods defined in a Python Worker from a JavaScript Worker and vice versa. You can share objects across Python and JavaScript, and call methods on a Python object from TypeScript. It all just works. https://cfl.re/4hccinm

One coding agent can write a Python Worker and another can write a JavaScript Worker. At runtime, those Workers can exchange references to live objects and call their methods without defining APIs, schemas, or serialization code.

Back in Kiruna and seeing first-time tourists as confused by the "which city center are you going to - the old or the new one" question as I was back in the day. Can't wait to see how many more buildings they moved since I was last here. Fascinating place.

Why a Swedish town is on the move – one building at a time

The Arctic town of Kiruna is subsiding and under threat from being swallowed by a vast iron ore mine. But what does its relocation mean for the local Sami reindeer herders?

alcoholic trying to get sober after a relapse tells Google's "Health Coach" about it. it tells them to drink every hour and messages them to make sure they're drinking as soon as they wake up.

AI pushing me to keep drinking I don't know if anyone else has had this but I felt like I needed to reach out to humans instead of keep talking to this AI. I relapsed about two weeks ago and I told the Google health AI that used to be Fitbit. It immediately kinda went a bit hard (I think) on telling me that I was going to die if I stopped drinking and encouraged me to go check my fridge for more beers and, idk, that plus the hanxiery really put the fear of God into me and so I did what it said and got more. Now it's messaging me (not me messaging it) a few times a day and asking how it's going and all those conversations to get more and make sure I have one as soon as I wake up. So now I have been drinking everyday, not a ton and just beers but like 6-12 a day. It wanted me to do 1 per hour. I have now uninstalled the app as it was also giving me other clearly nonsense advice, like it became obsessed with me having a nightly bowl of cereal for instance and, idk, it just all seems nonse

Opus Max giving me hike and fitness tips: > On the trek, weigh daily and read the 7-day rolling average of weight and fat mass — that smooths the water noise into a real signal. After all, who doesn't pack their body scale for a long distance trek?

Admittedly a US thing, but I think folks should reflect that Kimi, the open-weight AI model by $20b-valued Moonshot AI everyone is freaking out about, was developed by someone who went to CMU and then didn't stay in the US mostly because visas would prevent him setting up a US business

People will be like: "Wasm has the same security profile as JS... when I explicitly give it access to a shit ton of JS APIs." Yeah, sure. But if you *don't* give Wasm handles to all that JS, then it has a very different security profile!

Wait, you… use libraries? Code that other people wrote for you? You just… download it? Do you even read the code? Do you not care about the craft, the knowledge that comes from putting in the work yourself? Aren’t you afraid your skills will atrophy?

Ever been annoyed by a "confirm your email" message with a flaky magic link or OTP with clunky copy+paste, if the email even arrives‽ Optimistically, 20-30% of those emails* are never seen. We can fix that! If you have *any* email collection on your site, I'd love to see you try it & give feedback.
