rahn chats with google clouds gemini

LOG 202501182201 #log

so the app that inspired rahn.chat isn't going to support google cloud/gemini models. i honestly don't know what to make of this lol.

sure maybe the docs suck, but that's all of them tbh. using the latest models definitely isn't straight forward, a lot of times the documentation just doesn't exist or you have to spoon feed it to the ai because it keeps trying to use an outdated spec. i feel like that's part of the fun..

i'm sure he was working on more advanced features than I am but, sheesh. every time i read a post about the 'best' chat app in the world and think about my own creation, its like dopamine straight into my veins.

and don't get me wrong, i just spent half a day and about 30 iterations to iron out a bunch of bugs in my latest build... but the timing couldn't have been better. i'd been fighting with it most of the evening, finally figured it out, relaxed for a bit, checked X before plugging back in and read that they'd given up for now.

it made my success so much sweeter.

you can just ship stuff

i started doing it a couple months ago, and even though i feel like i'm learning fast, it's legitimately hard to keep pace with how good the models, and tools, are getting.

being good at learning new tools has never been so valuable.

and on that note, back to exploring ✌️
