@ParthJadhav8 @cursor_ai Very cool. Added their plugin kit; I'm going to try it with Composer 2.5 on some smaller PRs to see what that yields. I have the need for speed!

@leerob I’ve found it ventures off on its own when executing a plan, modifying unrelated code in the files it’s touching. Would like to see it stick to plans more strictly

Just yesterday people were saying @antigravity was dead

Wow, Google claimed AGI is just a few years away live on stage

The first music app that adds a toggle to exclude live versions of songs wins. Go, go, go!

Something about offloading small tasks to free local models tickles my brain

#gemma

[Google Gemma @googlegemma]

Now you can use Gemma directly in the Gemini CLI! 🚀

v0.40.0 introduces experimental support for local Gemma models, starting with intelligent model routing (with full local execution on the roadmap!).

The get/buy buttons in the Apple App Store are extra grabby and no one can convince me otherwise

I’m on to you, Apple

[Austin Abbott @keyboardJones]

@raphaelschaad This is the way

[Austin Abbott @keyboardJones]

@morganhousel The hard part is remembering to appreciate your past self

[Austin Abbott @keyboardJones]

@andrew__reed Completely agree. One, they’re better drivers than most people on the road, and two, I doubt Waymo is programming those things to be unabashedly hateful toward cyclists for some unknown reason

[Austin Abbott @keyboardJones]

@dollarsanddata Couldn't agree more. This is a topic I'd love to see more of on the blog, @dollarsanddata!

[Austin Abbott @keyboardJones]

@keyvoxapp Thanks for building this!

[Austin Abbott @keyboardJones]

I can't even imagine the number of submissions @AlternativeTo gets these days

@ihtesham2005 Love Zen. Honestly not sure why it’s still in beta, it’s solid

[Austin Abbott @keyboardJones]

@charlieholtz What if I play ultimate frisbee and my heritage is (primarily) French? Am I hired? 😀

[Austin Abbott @keyboardJones]

@MarioNawfal A bit of Googling says 490 mi is correct. That’s insane

[Austin Abbott @keyboardJones]

@MarioNawfal Source for 490 mi of range? My gut tells me that’s a misread of km, which would be ~304 mi
