Exactly, thats what makes it work with FUTO stt!

For now I didn't find anything that really works better than using termux on android or echo on ipad, ssh into my desktop with tailscale where I have a tmux session I can attach to. "Input" seems to be the biggest struggle for me versus a normal desktop+keyboard setup. On ipad I use a nuphy bluetooth keyboard which works pretty well and on android I use FUTO Keyboard with voice input.

Overall I think I don't even want to start coding too much on the go with a setup like this but it's nice to have options :)

Twelvedayon Nano Banana can be prompt engineered for nuanced AI image generation

Great post with some nice insights I could've used a few days ago!

I was trying to create a simple "mascot logo" for my pet project. I first created an account on Kittl [0] and even paid for one month but it was quite cumbersome to generate images until I figured out I could just use the nano banana api myself.

Took me 4 prompts to ai-slop a small python script I could run with uv that would generate me a specified amount of images with a given prompt (where I discovered some of the insight the author shows in their post). The resulting logo [1] was pretty much what I imagined. I manually added some text and played around with hue/saturation in Kittl (since I already paid for it :)) et voilà.

Feeding back the logo to iterate over it worked pretty nicely and it even spit out an "abstract version" [2] of the logo for favicons and stuff without a lot of effort.

All in all this took me 2 hours and around 2$ (excluding the 1 month Kittl subscription) and I would've never been able to draw something like that in Illustrator or similar.

Twelvedayon Swiss voters back e-ID legislation

Apparently the team is actively working on a solution to allow for rooted phones (just shows you a warning) and alternative stores.

I was really torn on what to vote but went for a yes in the end - only time will tell if and how this will be abused.

Twelvedayon IRC Driven – modern IRC indexing site and search engine

This is a fun one to look at: https://www.desktopmasters.com/ I love how the download for Java still links to JDK7 :)

Twelvedayon Show HN: 2048 turned 10 this year, I built an updated version to celebrate

It seems like there's a little pay to win even in a simple game like 2048 nowadays :)

Twelvedayon Command Line Tools I Like (2022)

I always try to predict what tools are mentioned in these posts and this time I was pretty close to get them all :)

I recently started using forgit and find it really usefull without having to change my workflow too much.

And instead of tldr i just do `curl cheat.sh/tar`

Twelvedayon Window-Switcher: Alt+(backtick) same-app window switching for Windows 10/11

I'm in the same boat as you and after 15 years of coding I finally switched to the US layout 3 weeks ago. Got a Wooting 60HE and installed the EuroKey layout and so far I'm super happy about the switch and many default shortcuts make a lot more sense (e.g. no more acrobatics needed for ctrl+b+[ to enter tmux copy mode).

The first few days are a little rough to unlearn all the muscle memory but I found this neat site to practice typing with your own public gists: https://www.codetyper.io/
