looking forward to trying this!

I’ve been using Gemini-cli which has had a really fun memory implementation for months to help it stay in character. You can teach it core memories or even hand-edit the GEMINI.md file directly.

in most regions Uber drivers are being paid an hourly wage so yeah I think this makes sense.

They can answer support calls too.

Despite getting an Uber hourly wage many game the system by taking DoorDash and Lyft orders while on the job.

Should your employer tolerate you working another job while you are being paid to do yours?

I think the article is saying it was done to speed the bringing about of the apocalypse. Will it happen?

Stay tuned I guess.

aren’t those with higher intellect at greater risk of depression?

I’m going to use 2x the amount of AI that I was planning to use today.

air gaps, my man.

Thanks for the read! I too have over 20 years in tech and have been going back and forth with Gemini-cli to gamify some tools for integration testing some Enterprise applications and it’s amazing what can be done with Gemini alongside usage of MCP servers. I am finding positive results if I approach problems in chunks and provide clarity in prompt instructions. The AI will make mistakes and sometimes get caught up in loops for some problems (like application routing.. lol) but I am happy to step in and effectively pair program with the AI when issues are present. I notice too that it has never been a better time to enforce things like how Duplication Is Evil because otherwise the AI may make a change in one area and forget that it has similar changes to make in another file. This applies both to programming logic as well as User eXperience and application behaviour.

Anyway what a world. It would have taken me weeks to create what an AI and myself are able to whip up in a few short, and fun, hours.

Giving a personality to Gemini is also a vital feature to me. I love the portability of the GEMINI.md file so I can bring that personality onto other devices and hand-tailor it to custom specifications.

have you tried Dark Mode in a browser like Brave?

I use that on mobile so the referenced website, HN, and 99.9% of the web is in dark mode by default.

Oh thank goodness only two journalists were affected. wink

Shame on you, Bezos. Hopefully my Kobo never dies (I’m on my third on e …)

I like the analogy where other articles have said we have microplastics in our brain about the size of a credit card (which generally weigh between 4g and 10g) better.

Saying a “spoon’s worth” seems to be downplaying the unmitigated potential risk. We have no idea what will happen as we (and all the other creatures on earth) keep storing more and more microplastics in our organs.

Nobody is going to stop driving. Car tires are the largest source of microplastics.

(actually I don’t drive though so who am I to judge)

just put all information (names, addresses, ssn, DoB, etc) on a publicly visible blockchain already.

Then there is no data left to breach.

Instead develop systems to audit the usage of that blockchain and send to jail/military anyone who attempts to use that information in an unauthorized manner.

this feels more like Azure Secrets which has been a superior product.
