1. Switch between models on the fly #

I’m often experimenting with the bleeding edge models as they come out. I actively switch between models for tasks and I use them all enough where I can tell the difference. Opencode lets me switch between models mid-task or mid-conversation. Fluidly.

Speed up your Android Studio

I use a 13" MacBook Pro at work these days. Android Studio frequently sent my machine into a tailspin.

Over time, I’ve had to tweak and update my AS settings to make AS work well on the 13". I figured I should post them here for posterity and the benefit of other AndroidDevs battling with deathly slow AS experiences.

My new programming font - IBM Plex Mono

I’m obsessed with typefaces and fonts .¹

I usually prefer a monospaced font and I’ve bounced between Inconsolata and Consolas in the past – both truly beautiful typefaces.

Recently though, a design director at Instacart shared this link on the laws of UX (a fantastic read btw).
