Personally my theory is that Gemini benefits from being able to train on Googles massive internal code base and because Rust has been very low on uptake internally at Google, especially since they have some really nice C++ tooling, Gemini is comparatively bad at Rust.

Interesting, Gemini must be a monster when it comes to Go code then. I gotta try it for that

Reasonsbly small Go codebase works well almost with any LLM

I had always designed very large projects as few medium sized independent Go tools and that strategy pays in times of AI assisted coding.

Tangental, but I worry that LLMs will cause a great stagnation in programming language evolution, and possibly a bunch of tech. I've tried using a few new languages and the LLMs would all swap the code for syntactically similar languages, even after telling them to read the doc pages. Whether that's for better or worse I don't know, but it does feel like new languages are genuinely solving hard problems as their rais…

Perhaps the next big programming language will be designed specifically for LLM friendliness. Some things which are human friendly like long keywords are just a waste of tokens for LLMs, and there could be other optimisations too.

I think AI studio is the best form factor and cheapest?

maybe but I think it shares whatever you put in there... zero privacy

Shares with Google yes but I don't think it's like publicly available to general web. But I guess whether it's a concern depend on use case

Loving this for working with gcloud

gave it brief instructions to deploy a hobby static site on cloud run yesterday; with additional architecture to set up (load balancer etc). It got into a loop, started deleting the gcloud resouces it created when it hit a 403 error for the site.

I hit ESC and prodded a little in terms of authentication rules ... and off it went to complete the task. bravo!

Hi - I work on this. Uptake is a steep curve right now, spare a thought for the TPUs today. Appreciate all the takes so far, the team is reading this thread for feedback. Feel free to pile on with bugs or feature requests we'll all be reading.

I subscribed to Google One through the Google Photos iOS app because I wanted photos I took on my iPhone to be backed up to Google. When I switched to Android and went into Google One to increase my storage capacity in my Google account, I found that it was literally impossible, because the subscription was tied to my iCloud account. I even got on a line with Google Support about it and they told me yeah it's not eve…

The root problem here lies with Apple. It's so frustrating how they take a 30% cut for the privilege of being unable to actually have a relationship with your customers. Want to do a partial refund (or a refund at all)? Want to give one month free to an existing subscriber? Tough luck. Your users are Apple's customers, not yours.

I bought my Google Photos subscription through the iOS app because it was cheaper than through Google directly. I have no idea why, but it was when I compared prices.
