Remote retreat 🏖
We had to cancel our regular team offsite for Product Hunt this year, so we’ve been looking for fun ideas for a remote retreat. Since the social part of our retreats are the best bit, boring apps have no place here. 🙅
Here’s a preview of some quirky remote apps and games we're exploring:
• Brightful Meeting Games introduces icebreaking games to “super serious” business meetings
• Buzzfeed Quiz Party to test the team's knowledge on important things like, “Which Nicholas Cage character are you?’” and “What’s your British name?”
• MerryMint brings IRL activities online. Hire a magician for a magic lesson, invite a chef to teach how to make the perfect pancake, or get a mixologist to spice up your Friday happy hours
• Goat 2 Meeting sends an invite to a real goat or llama to join your video call (photo above)
• Moonshot is a virtual escape room. Join your team on an important space mission where you must escape. You can play this one with up to 100 people
We’re looking forward to a highly productive year following this retreat. 😆

Your agents stopped answering and started doing
Your agents call tools, write to databases and move money, so a wrong answer is now a wrong action, which is a considerably worse meeting. Arcjet runs policy before every LLM call, tool call, query and API request: prompt injection, sensitive data, bots, rate limits, spend quotas, and your own rules in Rego on top. It reads the OpenTelemetry you already emit, so switching it on is one environment variable, no code changes and nothing to deploy. Each check also reads the earlier steps in the same workflow, so an agent's tenth action gets judged against the first nine and not on its own. JavaScript, Python and Go SDKs all at 1.0, agent framework guards included, free tier to start on.
