There are official extensions for using Antigravity in IDEs. "Antigravity uses a unified authentication system across all IDE extensions, the Antigravity CLI, and Antigravity 2.0 (Desktop). Your sign-in determines your model entitlements, quota limits, and data privacy policies."

Why now? From the Govt of BC press release: "The Interpretation Amendment Act, which is the legal framework that enables the Province to adopt permanent DST, became law in 2019. At the time, government chose not to bring it into force in order to co-ordinate timing with neighbouring U.S. states in the same time zone.
Recent actions from the U.S. have shifted how B.C. approaches decisions that merit alignment, including on time zones. Making this change now reflects the current preferences and needs of British Columbians, and helps ensure the province is well-positioned to thrive, even when circumstances across the border evolve."

In Canada it's $35/yr and I don't see any indication of the 2-week trial that's mentioned on their website. Probably can still cancel within two weeks, but it simply has a Subscribe button before you can do anything.

For fun I forked the project to run Llama-3.1 7B or other models using Ollama locally. It doesn't get strawberry right, but it can figure out 0.9 is bigger.

I made this point on Threads and Nilay's response was "yes making visual lies trivial to make is bad". It's never been photos that made "truth", it's been the source of the photos. You trust a photo from a photojournalist. You don't trust a photo from some rando in your social feed.

When I think of "percentage $ cut off of every subsequent transaction" I think of Artist's Resale Right, or "Droit de suite" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Droit_de_suite

From the About text: "Set of different things and pipyakas that increase hang time on Twitter." What does "pipyakas" mean?
