Strong agreement. I include https://roost.tools in this category of necessary efforts. A strong privacy law would be great, but a more political thing, though there is much we can do as technologists.
It seems to be more likely on the unlikely side because (1) Iran planned for distributed operations (2) missiles are still apparently flying, speculated that any agreement may not have disbursed to all the independently operating groups (3) your point, it's unclear if there is any actual agreement (4) is Israel party to this agreement, will they honor any such agreement? Same for Hezbollah and Hamas
jj will not achieve meaningful adoption until git interop is improved and there is a big enough win to change a core work tool. Lack of git-lfs is a blocker where I work and asking all the devs to change their git habits for a shop that doesn't use rebase (as I understand the main issue jj aims to make better)... the ROI just doesn't appear to be there.
Slightly trailing off from your focus, but hopefully within the same sentiment (that k8s was good, albeit an exception)
I would place Google ADK in alignment with Kubernetes more than this project, for the well designed abstractions, the controlplane, and handling the boring parts that every alternative will at maturity.
I can see the agent framework ignorance to the container analogy about what's running inside. ADK lacks the ability to run any agent tool, but you can build most of this projects controlplane on top of it with minimal effort, most of the bookkeeping is there already. It's more about what experience you want to have.
