It can use Openrouter or local LLMs like ollama - it says lm_studio but I couldn't get that working. I'm sure it will support any Openai compatible interface.

You can ask it for code and it will give it to you and save it to a file, AND, if you like, initialize a git repo and commit it with a "sensible commit message". Check it out if that sounds like your jam:

Not uncommon, tbh. It's a little too geeky for most folks.
November 23, 2024 at 4:56 PM
LOL :D I'm starting to see folks here from TwiX. Lots more than I saw on Mastodon or Threads. LOL
November 23, 2024 at 5:04 AM
So you gonna follow me or what? LOL >:)

It all starts with Shel Silverstein. He's a gateway drug.

( I hit follow as soon as I saw the handle :D )
November 22, 2024 at 8:35 PM
Same! I love your energy even when we occasionally disagree :D

I think we should start a betting pool with over/under on how long each appointment will last before dissolving in rage and recriminations lol
November 22, 2024 at 8:32 PM
Heya. I just followed you but can't message you :D

McMahon just KILLS me. WTF, over? LOL jesus.

If you do a lot of coding, check out windsurf from codeium. It's a bespoke build of vscode and you can allow the AI to actually edit files build artifacts too. It's still "working through it" but it's overall awesome.

Yeah, need a lot more mofos here before I'm shutting down my TwiX account.

I have tried to build a code generation process but the magic has thus far evaded me (ie, provide requirements, and it builds, tests, and debugs until it meets requirements). I have it working for singly python or go functions tho!
November 20, 2024 at 2:17 PM
Oh, I've been using 'em for coding for some time. I've gotten some stuff pretty well sorted - I use Codeium and Claude mostly. I built a "storage box manager" in go and react and I bet I wrote maybe 5% of the code. LOL.

Like "What if I have X happen to Character Y at time Z?" And it said "That's an interesting twist. You could expore A, B, and C implications and build dynamic tension with D complication!"

Overall, I highly recommend this use case to writers. Fun stuff, and no "write this for me".

I asked it if there were areas I should expand on and it gave me six, and five of them were *very good*. It's maybe a bit too positive in tone but overall it was SUPER impressive and useful, even for brainstorming!

The result was *impressive*. I uploaded my nascent novel to Claude's "project" folder and asked it questions. I asked it to check continuity - and it did! I asked it to check for consistent character descriptions and it found two errors.

But human editors are fickle and expensive or friends who wont' be honest at the risk of hurting your feelings. So a few days ago I decided to ask Claude. (Anthropic's frontier AI model).

But a big problem I have is that I'm not a very good self-editor - I mean, shit, I said it that way because it seemed right and reading it again ain't gonna make me think it wasn't. I need some feedback.
