Companies are looking for more traceability in regulated environments. We have audit and compliance to deal with where the whole sdlc is under a microscope.

Does buzz help move us out of Jira hell, get off slack, teams or google chat? Does it get us off github enterprise?

I don't understand the problem this solves and how it could be reasonably used in a corporate environment.

Local AI and open-weight models are becoming something to no longer ignore. I've started a community around this @tokenstead on X and tokenstead.ai YouTube and much more coming. DGX Spark on route, RTX 5090s and much more exciting builds. We need to have AI sovereignty!

Is it just me or is the experience to get this up and running not feeling very Apple like? Is there no one liner to install or did I miss something?

1. Built an agent memory tool since all agents and clis are dumb and don't remember anything. Instead of prepping 300 project files and Md files I just say:

Check sugar memory for the latest thing we were working on.

2. The second thing is when making changes across a large codebase agents are also dumb at figuring this out and also grep 300 things, using tons of tokens. Instead I say

Check RemembrallMCP to analyze the impact of the change.

1. https://github.com/roboticforce/sugar

2. https://github.com/roboticforce/remembrallmcp

And there it is, the vaccum of AI consuming your data everywhere, used to train their models all goes back to... ads.

Same things with OpenAI. Ads.

I feel like we're right back in the early 2000's Internet again at least they aren't popups, we hope.

But with these models being embedded into, literally everything, will your screen on your car start showing you ads before you can turn the AC on?

It's coming

Currently, we face lots of churn in our ecosystems. API updates, CVEs that need updates, supply chain compromises - keeping up is getting harder and we need something to help us manage that, get notified and allow us to take action.

This is why I created ChangeSpec, an open standard to communicate software changes.

I'd love to get feedback and work on it together, it's still early but I hope you like it.

Does it help track me all the expenses from email and make them Booker ready or accountant ready. Worst paperwork job ever.

Working on a way for us to communicate software changes properly with people, systems and AI.

I'm frustrated at how we just do library updates and get whatever is next. Things break. Finding a changelog sucks. Vendor updates maybe put something in X.

We can do better so I'm starting an open initiative to tackle that.

Run real War Room incident training drills with your teams, together, in a browser.

194 Engineers, DevOps, SRE's are already registered.

Start a free War Room. Invite your team. Compete in a countdown to solve the incident.

Learn about different kind of incident scenarios: - Kubernetes - AI - DNS - Database, networking and more being added weekly.

Multiplayer War Room plus new AI workstation scenarios are now live.

Blew through my usage in less than 1 hour after it was out. Max 20x plan. ouch

Are you using multiple agents on the same project? If you are, use git worktrees.

I personally prefer 3-4 concurrent terminal sessions, working on different projects. Claude code usually runs around everywhere with agents, and sometimes takes 20 minutes to get shit done. During that time I'm shipping open source work, etc.

I use my own tools to help: Sugar and RemembrallMCP. Sugar is used for memory that's stored outside sessions. So I say store this in sugar memory. If I open a new claude session later, and ask it to lookup sugar memory, it's there.

RemembrallMCP is a AST and code graph that helps the agents understand change impact of your codebase. Instead of insane greps veritical and horizontal, it uses this to quickly understand impact with very high accuracy, time reduction and low token limits.

Game changers.

Have them show you and talk about what they built. If they are not curious and building side projects, doing open source for excitement and making an app for a friend's business, their family member or some passion project, to me that's a red flag.

We are in a new age when the barrier to building is literally the lowest it's ever been. If your GitHub still is a dead graveyard fix that immediately.

I have over 2k commits in 2026 alone and I'm not even an IC anymore. Not including my work account.

I have like 12 side projects being built usually, working on 3-4 in parallel. A few are open source and growing.

All of this has helped me learn at a crazy rate. If your candidate is still just slogging 9-5, doing stand-ups then clocking out without anything extra.... That's all you need to know.

Curious, self learning, high potential people with a track record and good communication skills. That's it.
