Golden Kitty Awards Winners 🏆😻
The 3rd Annual Golden Kitty awards came down to the wire, literally. Multiple categories were nearly tied at yesterday’s cutoff, including:
• CryptoKitties and Earn.com in Crypto ⛓
• Tixio and Gmail Unsubscriber in Lifehacks ⚡️
• Coinbase and Telegram for Breakout Product 📈
The most upvoted product of the year, Station held its lead over fan favorite Firefox Quantum to win Product of the Year. This is the first time the year’s most upvoted product is also the winner of the top product category.
Congrats to Telegram for winning Breakout Product of the Year, followed closely by category favorite, Coinbase.
In a shocking twist, Petcubes Bites beat out 2x Golden Kitty Award winner Elon Musk in the prestigious WTF Product category. In response, the Golden Kitty Awards veteran has pivoted The Boring Company's product (and fundraising strategy) from on-brand Boring Company hats, to less-boring $600 flamethrowers. 🔥
The Community Member of the Year is Kevin William David, just ahead of Hiten Shah, Kiki Schirr, and last year's winner, Chris Messina. The Maker of the Year award goes to Pieter Levels, followed by Lisa Dziuba, Mubashar Iqbal, and Jordan Gonen.
Check out the winners in all 16 categories. 🏆
Congrats to all the nominees and makers for building something awesome in 2017. 😺

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.
