Open Source & Developer Tools
Small-Scale Models and Specialized Local Tools: New community developments showcase the power of localized AI, including the Qwen 3.5 0.8B model's ability to play DOOM on minimal hardware. Additionally, developers have released "Gloss," a Rust-based private alternative to NotebookLM, and "Engram," an open-source memory server designed to give coding agents persistent long-term memory.
- Qwen 3.5 0.8B - small enough to run on a watch. Cool enough to play DOOM.
- I built "Gloss" -- A local-first, privacy-focused NotebookLM alternative in Rust. Features hybrid search, local model support, and explicit RAG control.
- Built an open source memory server so my coding agents stop forgetting everything between sessions
