And gemini-1.5-pro is months from depreciation and there is no production alternative. 2.0 does not pass our benchmarks and in a regulated industry we need time to move to a new modek
I've been listening to them on KEXP.org for a decade or more now.
It's a little odd tuning into "the morning show" in the afternoon, but it's good radio, and so much better for discovering music than any of the alternatives here.
6 Music can be as good, but it never quite got over the "death" of the UK indie music scene and sometimes feels more like a tribute act to it's former self. As I speak the heaviest tracks in rotation are from Bon Iver and Doves, and while both are great acts, they're not new bands. Overall the discoverability is way down, and fairly often I'll find new music, even music from UK+Ireland, via KEXP, rather than from the media here.
Each is not always good 24x7 but when they are good they are so much better than any playlist I've ever heard. You're just not going to get a Firebunker(RIP) or Cousin Mary or Alma de Barrio without the humans.
With radio on the internet, there's a ton of great worthwhile stations available.
WTMD, Colorado Sound, WEQX, Koto.fm, Mountain Chill, WETA, WMRW, 102 Cue, KCRW all get a lot of play around here.
Radio feels dead because most places have been taken over by a couple major broadcasters. Radio is awesome when people care about it, is still a fantastic institution of lots of small local shops doing amazing things for great good.
I love them, discovered when I lived in Seattle. Now I've got a crazy little one WJOP-LP but some of the DJs play local little bands and more obscure artists. Must be a teaching/training type thing.
Are you still announcing meals? I know some people use iAPS with no meal announcement which sounds amazing. We are moving our T1D son from OP5 to Loop but would consider iaps in the future. Hoping we can recreate our 92% average time in range with less work needed
I use Duet AI from Google in vscode. It is quite good at completing my code as I'm writing it. I almost exclusively write Python code. I am not promoting for a whole file or anything but it can often complete multiple lines at once
Would love to have a rule like no phones until 15 but our son has type 1 diabetes so he has had to have a phone since he was 2 and a half. I anticipate him texting us about his treatment as soon as he can write, especially during school so we are going to have to navigate appropriate use early.
This is also going to make it tricky having any rule for our younger daughter.
