[OpenClaw🦞 @openclaw]

🦞 Shoutout to @useblacksmith for sponsoring OpenClaw's build infrastructure

Every commit gets tested automatically before it ships to you. That costs real money. Blacksmith just picked up the tab ❤️

[Blacksmith @useblacksmith]

Your builds will soon have a hype meter.

I wear my Iron Ring as a software engineer; my parents got theirs too back in the day.

One thing I’ve noticed is that the ring starts to heat up, vibrate, and make strange angry sounds whenever I have more than 2-3 Claude instances going at once.

Anyone else out there vibe circuit-building?

agents and sandboxes are about to quietly become the backbone of software in 2026 and no one is ready for how big that is

[Tailscale @Tailscale]

It's Thanksgiving day, and one of your datacenter's ISPs has degraded routing. What do you do? If you're @useblacksmith, you use Tailscale Services to build an immediate, zero-config proxy, so it doesn't happen again: https://t.co/pEXKBACDNu

Today at Blacksmith, we’re launching Windows runners in public beta.

This was one of our most requested products from customers and now you can bring all the benefits of Blacksmith to your Windows jobs:

- Speed: 2x faster CI using the same gaming-grade CPUs that powers our Linux runners

- Near-instant provisioning: no more waiting for CI jobs to be picked up

- Native observability: job analytics, SSH access, test analytics, log search, and VM metrics!

We’re at booth 1672 at #KubeCon for the next three days!

That’s three chances to stop by, share your CI woes, and enter for a shot at flying home with one of these bad boys.
