Today's threads all point the same way: the infrastructure is bending toward live, agentic software. Google is quietly rebuilding its plumbing for it — streaming APIs that stay open, and agent tooling that works with whatever framework you already use — while crypto splits over what AI means for security, with Starknet even gaming out a post-quantum future before it arrives. On the consumer side, the foldable iPhone gets its first real showcase app in MLB's World Series redesign, a reminder that new hardware only matters when software gives it a job. Even the Ray-Ban Meta privacy checklist fits the pattern: the devices around us keep getting more capable, and the controls that matter keep hiding in the menus.

• Streaming comes to API Gateway: real-time and AI-ready APIs, without changing your spec
  Source: Google Dev General RSS
  
  Google's API Gateway now supports real-time streaming in Public Preview, including Server-Sent Events, WebSockets, gRPC, and chunked transfer encoding, without requiring developers to change their existing API specifications. The update lets teams route long-lived, bi-directional streams and AI workloads through the gateway while keeping the same authentication, rate limiting, and observability in place — a practical step toward APIs built for live, agent-driven traffic rather than one-shot requests.
• Powering the Agent Development Lifecycle with any framework, from ADK to LangChain and beyond
  Source: Google Dev General RSS
  
  Google's Agents CLI Extension System lets developers build with LangChain, LangGraph, or custom enterprise stacks while keeping a unified deployment and evaluation workflow. A first-party LangChain template scaffolds, runs, and deploys agents without requiring the Agent Development Kit, and platform teams can author custom extensions of their own — a sign the agent toolchain is maturing from single-framework bets into bring-your-own-stack plumbing.
• Crypto's Two Answers to AI Bug Hunters
  Source: Bankless RSS
  
  Bankless frames a split in crypto security now that AI makes bugs cheap to find: one camp leans into agility, shipping fast and patching fast, while the other leans into minimalism, shrinking the attack surface so there is less to break. The piece argues the two answers reflect different bets on whether AI favors attackers or defenders — and that the winning posture may depend less on tooling than on how much code a protocol dares to run.
• Starknet Votes to Explore Going Solo as a Post-Quantum L1
  Source: Bankless RSS
  
  Starknet voters backed researching a standalone post-quantum chain with 93.5% of voting power, though any actual switch would still require a second community vote. The move is exploratory, not a migration — but it puts quantum resistance on the roadmap of a major layer-2 network years before it becomes urgent, and signals that post-quantum planning is moving from theory into governance proposals.
• MLB is making the most of iPhone Duo's foldable screen just in time for the World Series

  MLB redesigned its app for the iPhone Duo's foldable screen, putting live video, real-time stats, and AI-powered game insights together on one folding display just in time for the World Series. The redesign is one of the first high-profile apps built around a foldable iPhone, and it treats the extra screen as a second broadcast booth — video on one side, data on the other — rather than just a bigger phone.
• 4 Ray-Ban Meta privacy settings you should change before wearing them
  Source: Engadget RSS
  
  Meta's Ray-Ban smart glasses have drawn sustained criticism for the ways they can compromise the privacy of people around the wearer, not just the wearer. Engadget walks through four settings owners should change before wearing them, a reminder that the most consequential privacy controls on wearable cameras are often buried in menus most buyers never open — and that bystanders get no settings at all.
