Great. My @elgato prompter just shit the bed 15 minutes before a recording. It's stuck on a teleprompter mode when I just need it to be a 2nd screen so I can look directly at my guests? WTH!?!

"I worry the current trajectory of JS runtimes is beginning to smell a bit like IE6. The lesson of the last 25 years is that innovation requires a diverse set of builders competing around a diverse set of implementations. It will be interesting to see what emerges to fill the gap." redmonk.com/kholterhoff/2026… < too much consolidation happening? Not always a good thing, says @KateHolterhoff

Reflections on the recent @deno_land acquisition by @Cloudflare and what is says about the state of JS runtimes and the overall fragility of the web. As always thx to my @openjsf friends, James Snell, @matteocollina, @rginn206 redmonk.com/kholterhoff/2026…

Is @Cloudflare Connect a developer conference? @monkchips & @KateHolterhoff discuss their reckons in this (not so) Quick Take, live in San Francisco. And, yes, it’s Kate’s birthday 🎂 #CloudflareConnect redmonk.com/videos/qt-cloudf…

Formal verification is the new Borgian map, only instead of being 1:1, “Proofs can be many times larger than the original code… it took 2 person-years to implement the seL4 operating system kernel, but 20 person-years to formally verify it.” @AnthropicAI anthropic.com/research/forma…

I also noticed this assumption. I guess this shouldn’t be unexpected as the @AgenticAIFdn shares ties with the @CloudNativeFdn, but it might be alienating to some devs.
assume breach? Defense in depth? This is starting to sound like a security conference 👂 #agentShield Also noticing an assumption we're running everything on k8s as a thread through talks. Maybe I'm wrong 🤔

Oh look! The MCP roadmap includes Authorization & Identity. @dsp_ at AGNTCon + MCPCon
The final post in my @redmonk series on software registries as trust services looks at MCP, A2A, & the overarching question of how software trusts software. There is growing concern among security professionals that developers are treating... redmonk.com/kholterhoff/2026… 1/2

caught up with @nickytonline & @KateHolterhoff over coffee before keynotes at AGNTCon + MCPCon 🤖 I should be paying more attention to @techgirl1908 giving us a rundown of what's going on here today & tomorrow instead of playing on my phone 🤫

Another 🔥🌶️ chat at the day 2 #cloudflareconnect keynote: @dok2001 & @steipete. The PHP vuln. Future of open source, and how it needs to change to accommodate agentic software development. Token spend

Damn. @zatlyn not holding back at this day 2 #cloudflareconnect fireside chat. Lots of hard truths. “Pruning” legacy partners that are holding back your org. HR’s role as agent of AI change b/c they hold the workflows. Prioritizing small wins
