@nelson Have you tried invoking it from Gemini CLI yet? Jules on the web is great in a lot of ways, but depending on your workflow, you can have the CLI build multiple Jules sessions that run simultaneously.

Example would be a change that touches multiple parts of your codebase, especially if the changes don’t need to be done sequentially. I’ve had Gemini CLI build out detailed plans, then kick off 3-4 Jules sessions itself. Once they’re done, the CLI can pull down the patches from those sessions and apply them locally for you. It’s awesome!

@stroughtonsmith Have you peeked under the hood at much of the code for this project? I saw you mention that you were completely hands off with the code for this one, but I'd definitely be curious to get your take on the overall code quality you're seeing from these models.
@stroughtonsmith So many “one more prompt” moments…
@stroughtonsmith It’s crazy to see how something like this can evolve. Do you find it weirdly addictive to see what the GPUs will cook up next?
@too_little_caffeine I’m leaning toward doing the same next time around, assuming performance is reasonably competitive. There’s really no excuse for the state of Nvidia’s Linux drivers anymore.
@krupo Bazzite seems cool, I’ve only tested it briefly so far though. I went with Linux Mint this time because I actually really like their Cinnamon desktop environment. Knowing myself, Bazzite will probably be what I try next time I get bored…
Finally ditched Windows 11 on my gaming PC! Nvidia drivers are still a pain in the ass on Linux (some things never change), but it's amazing how well most games seem to work once you get the drivers squared away.
Hard to believe it’s only been a few months with iPadOS 26. I’ve started using it with an external monitor occasionally, and wow, it finally feels like the computer replacement it was always meant to be. Now apps just need to catch up…
I dislike AI for so many things, but for software development, I think I get it. This shit's crazy… Gemini 3 seems like the real deal. Maybe I've just been living under a rock?

New blog post: I used #gemini to help build a metronome web app. It went really well!

Groove Buddy Metronome

Lately I've been working on a browser-based metronome called Groove Buddy. It started as a way to have something more flexible than a basic click...
