Subagents have arrived in Gemini CLI! 🤖🚀 Create your own custom subagents in @geminicli!

Compact Header/Logo in Gemini CLI 🎨 Do folks prefer this alternate compact header vs. the previous larger "GEMINI" ASCII art? I could see a world where we keep both. Show the GEMINI header on first startup in a new project then the compact header on all subsequent launches...

WIMBLEDON BEAT HATED RIVALS MK DONS 3-0 TO TOP LEAGUE TWO. ⬆️ Phoenix club founded by the fans when a sulking owner moved their team 60 miles up the road to Milton Keynes emphatically defeat the very reason they exist. Imagine the satisfaction. 😅 Have a day, @sportswithjohn 💙

If you’re thinking you want to hire a design engineer, consider instead: - hiring an engineer with very good taste who you empower to make a thousand quality of life improvements in your app - hiring a very good designer who can code to help make codey designs

The Dons play MK's Franchise tomorrow. We've already won--better attendance, fan ownership, and an EARNED place in the Football League. I hope we crush them in their hideous, empty, soulless stadium. But we've already beat them. Those franchise bastards know exactly who they are.

GitHub Copilot costs users $10 per month, but it costs Microsoft an average of $20 per user per month. Some users are costing the company as much as $80 per month. AI-powered Copilot coding tools are a race for who runs out of money first. Trick all developers into dependence on the product for audience capture, then: - slowly increase the subscription cost, or - decrease performance, or - expect hardware improvements to offset loss in the future. thurrott.com/cloud/290661/re…
Community note
This post is wrong. Nat Friedman who was leading Github around the time of launch of Copilot claims that Github Copilot costs less than $20 per month x.com/natfriedman/st… twitter.com/natfriedman/st…
