In this episode of Community Pulse, we discuss the challenge DevRel teams face when raising concerns internally. Because they're closely connected to the developer community, they often spot issues before anyone else. Speaking up too often can make them seem overly negative or resistant to change. We explore how to communicate concerns effectively, maintain credibility with stakeholders, and continue advocating for the community without becoming “the person who always pumps the brakes.” Checkouts Wesley Faulkner Work's Not Working - A community for those struggling in the workplace to get real help instead of platitudes.

In this episode of the Shift AI Podcast, Kurtis Kemple, Senior Director of Developer Relations at Slack (Salesforce), joins host Boaz Ashkenazy for a wide-ranging conversation on how Slackbot is evolving into a full agentic platform for human-AI collaboration in the flow of work.Kurtis shares his extraordinary personal journey, from growing up in poverty in Northern New Jersey, dropping out of school, struggling with addiction, and spending over six years incarcerated, to teaching himself to code in prison with nothing but a textbook and a computer with no internet. From there, he built a career in tech that has taken him to one of the most prominent roles in developer relations at Salesforce.The conversation dives deep into how Slackbot is becoming far more than a simple assistant. Kurtis demonstrates how skills, canvases, and MCP connectors transform Slackbot into a powerful orchestration layer where multiple agents and humans collaborate in threads, channels, and workflows. He explains how Slack is positioning itself as the interface for agentic AI, whether that means connecting to Agentforce, GitHub, PagerDuty, or custom-built tools.Boaz and Kurtis explore the concept of bounded autonomy, the idea that agents should earn expanded capabilities through demonstrated consistency, much like onboarding a new employee. They discuss how ambient agents, gamified learning experiences, and personal productivity skills are already transforming day-to-day work for teams using Slack internally at Salesforce.This episode is essential listening for developers, team leads, and anyone building or deploying AI agents who wants to understand why the orchestration layer matters more than any single model, and how the future of work is being shaped inside the tools we already use every day.Chapters[00:00] From Poverty to Prison to Tech: Kurtis's Journey[04:28] Learning to Code Behind Bars with No Internet[06:39] Landing at Salesforce and Second Chances in Hiring[07:11] First Job: The Kemple Kids Shoveling Snow[08:48] The Role: Slackbot, DevRel, and the Agentic Platform Vision[11:35] Multi-Party Collaboration: Agents and Humans in Threads[12:43] Why Slack Is the Orchestration Layer for AI[15:25] Skills Deep Dive: Building and Using Custom Skills[18:32] Context from Conversations: Slack as a Living Repository[20:29] Canvases, Writing Styles, and Seamless Workflows[22:08] Customer Success Stories: Linear, Engine, and Design Partners[25:22] Human-Agent Orchestration vs. Agent-to-Agent Orchestration[28:45] Ambient Agents: The Tidy Skill and Chief of Staff[33:06] Building Trust Through Bounded Autonomy[34:22] Design Partners: Linear, GitHub, and Graceful Degradation[39:11] Slack Platform Power Up: Gamified Learning with Skills[42:37] The Future of Work: Boundedness and Agency[45:04] AI for Everyone: Small Models, Big Access, Edge Intelligence[47:08] What's Next: Slack Developer Day (May 20) and BeyondConnect with Kurtis KempleLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kurtiskemple/Email: curtiskemple@gmail.comGitHub: https://github.com/kurtiskempleConnect with Boaz AshkenazyLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/boazashkenazy/Email: info@shiftai.fm
In this episode, Maggie Appleton from GitHub Next explains why "single player" AI tools are creating a team alignment crisis. We discuss the shift from solo CLI instances to multiplayer agentic environments, the launch of ACE (Agentic Collaboration Environment), and why the future of software isn't just about writing code faster—it's about using proactive agents to bridge the gap between developers, researchers, and the social fabric of a company.This was recorded at AI Engineer Europe.Links:Maggie Appleton https://maggieappleton.com/GitHub Next https://githubnext.com/
I sat down with Ian from the World Foundation to dig into one of the most pressing problems of our time, how do you prove you're a real human online without sacrificing your privacy? As AI floods the internet with bots and agents, the gap between human and machine interaction is closing fast. Ian walks me through how World ID and the Orb device let anyone verify their humanity using advanced cryptography, completely anonymously, no passport scans, no email addresses, no data sitting on some server you don't control. We also get into Ian's wild journey from GPU mining and Constitution DAO to building at World, and why the current KYC and AML model is a problem for both users and platforms. This is a conversation about identity, privacy, and what it means to be human in a world where most internet traffic won't be.

In this episode, Ronald and Jan are joined by Nigel Douglas, Head of Developer Relations at Cloudsmith, to discuss the upcoming Kubernetes 1.36 release and the broader evolution of the Kubernetes ecosystem.Nigel shares his journey from help desk and cybersecurity roles into open source, eventually working closely with Kubernetes through projects like Calico and Falco within the CNCF ecosystem. The conversation centers around Kubernetes 1.36, which marks a shift from foundational features toward optimization and new use cases. A major theme in this release is the growing importance of AI workloads. Kubernetes is increasingly positioned as the orchestration platform for AI, with features like Dynamic Resource Allocation (DRA) enabling better management of GPUs and specialized hardware. Security is another dominant theme. Many of the changes in this release focus on closing gaps and improving control, such as more fine-grained authorization, better admission control during node startup, and addressing previously existing vulnerabilities. Additionally, the episode highlights several practical improvements, including better snapshot capabilities for stateful workloads, enhanced observability features like native histograms, and improvements in workload scheduling that take hardware topology into account. The discussion also touches on a common challenge in the Kubernetes world: upgrading. Many organizations still run older versions due to the complexity of dependencies and ecosystem changes, making transitions non-trivial. Looking ahead, Nigel emphasizes the need for more standardization within Kubernetes to make it easier for organizations to adapt when components change or become deprecated, reinforcing the importance of a stable and predictable ecosystem.

SUMMARY: The RAG (Retrieval Augmented Generation) pattern is one of the most frequently used to augment LLMs with context-specific information. Let's explore RAG.

Microsoft 365 Governance, we got this!SHOW NOTES:Topic 1 - Welcome to the show. Tell us a little bit about your background, and what you focus on these days at Pinecone Topic 2 - Let's begin by talking about RAG systems. What are they? Why do companies choose to use them? What benefits do they provide in AI systems?Topic 3 - At a high level, RAG sounds straightforward—retrieve relevant context, generate an answer. But in practice, where does it break first as systems scale?Topic 4 - I've heard that RAG systems can return answers that are technically correct but fundamentally wrong. What's a concrete example of that happening in production—and why does it slip past most teams?Topic 5 - In traditional systems, we assume there's a single source of truth. But in enterprise environments, ‘truth' is often versioned, contextual, and conflicting. How should teams rethink ‘truth' when building AI systems?Topic 6 - A lot of teams assume their knowledge base is ‘good enough' for RAG. What do they usually underestimate about the messiness of real enterprise data?Topic 7 - There's a growing narrative that better reasoning models can compensate for weaker retrieval. From what you've seen, where does that idea fall apart?Topic 8 - If correctness depends on things like timing, policy scope, or configuration, how should teams design systems that understand context—not just content?Topic 9 - Looking ahead, what replaces today's RAG architectures? What patterns are emerging among teams that are actually getting this right?”FEEDBACK?Email: show @ reasoning dot showBluesky: @reasoningshow.bsky.socialTwitter/X: @ReasoningShowInstagram: @reasoningshowTikTok: @reasoningshow

We talk about the "startup university" of the last five years, why he walked away from 6-figure enterprise deals to find true founder-market fit, and why he thinks most people are wrong about AI-generated pull requests.This episode is brought to you by WorkOS.

The way software gets built is changing fast—and not quietly. Tools powered by large language models are reshaping who can build, how fast teams move, and what “being a developer” even means. In a recent Snowpal podcast episode, Federico Sarquis, Head of Developer Relations at Crossmint, shared an unfiltered view from the front lines of fintech, AI-assisted development, and modern product teams . Federico discusses the evolving landscape of software development, particularly the impact of AI and wipe coding. He shares insights on how non-developers can leverage AI tools, the importance of agency in hiring, and the changing dynamics of development teams. He also touches on the challenges in the FinTech space, the significance of compliance, and the future of programming languages. The discussion highlights the need for adaptability and creativity in the tech industry, as well as cultural insights from Argentina.

What does it actually take to build trust with developers when your product sits quietly inside thousands of other products, often invisible to the people using it every day? In this episode of Tech Talks Daily, I sat down with Ondřej Chrastina, Developer Relations at CKEditor, to unpack a career shaped by hands-on experience, curiosity, and a deep respect for developer time. Ondřej's story starts in QA and software testing, moves through development and platform work, and eventually lands in developer relations. What makes his perspective compelling is that none of these roles felt disconnected. Each one sharpened his understanding of real developer friction, the kind you only notice when you have lived with a product day in and day out. We talked about what changes when you move from monolithic platforms to API-first services, and why developer relations looks very different depending on whether your audience is an application developer, a data engineer, or an integrator working under tight delivery pressure. Ondřej shared how his time at Kentico, Kontent.ai, and Ataccama shaped his approach to tooling, documentation, and examples. For him, theory rarely lands. Showing something that works, even in a small or imperfect way, tends to earn attention and respect far faster. At CKEditor, that thinking becomes even more interesting. The editor is everywhere, yet rarely recognized. It lives inside SaaS platforms, internal tools, CRMs, and content systems, quietly doing its job. We explored how developer experience matters even more when the product itself fades into the background, and why long-term maintenance, support, and predictability often outweigh short-term feature excitement. Ondřej also explained why building instead of buying an editor is rarely as simple as teams expect, especially when standards, security, and future updates enter the picture. We also got into the human side of developer relations. Balancing credibility with business goals, staying useful rather than loud, and acting as a bridge between engineering, product, marketing, and the outside world. Ondřej was refreshingly honest about the role ego can play, and why staying close to real usage is the fastest way to keep yourself grounded. If you care about developer experience, internal tooling, or how invisible infrastructure shapes modern software, this conversation offers plenty to reflect on. What have you seen work, or fail, when it comes to earning developer trust, and where do you think developer relations still get misunderstood?
