A few notes from GitHub Universe: GitHub Sparks is Artifacts++, and model choice for Copilot is a reminder that any strategy that ties you to a single model provider may be strategically short-sighted simonwillison.net/2024/Oct/30/co…

Did you know there’s a static web server built into Python? python -m http.server Run from the folder with your web app. No dependencies 👍

K fine, Max deserves the WDC. Norris does not. #f1

I’ll be live in 30 minutes on Dotnet Conf showcasing the latest integration of Python inside .NET with CSnakes 🐍 🤖 #dotNETConf youtube.com/live/bD3s78pfS…

After a good 4 hours of hacking on a Friday evening I got a working prototype bridging Python (above) and .net’s async APIs for CSnakes. It will generate an async method for a Python async function and strongly type the coroutine Yield type. #dotNETConf 🪄

Enjoying my last decent coffee in Sydney before the flight to Chicago for Microsoft #Ignite. I’m doing a talk, three workshops and I’ll be on the experts booth for a lot of the week, so if you’re going be sure to say hi

Created a plugin for Simon Willison ‘s LLM tool for GitHub Models. all you need is a GitHub Token to get started pypi.org/project/llm-gi…

The @GitHub Models plugin for LLM CLI now has Vision support (thank you Sukhbinder Singh) and Phi-4 Support github.com/tonybaloney/ll…

VS Code Pets 1.28 is out, now with Pandas, Frogs, and Snails. Plus the Chicken no longer grows larger than the dinosaur (hey, I'm a programmer not a biologist)

❄️ 🦊 VS Code Pets 1.29 is out. This update includes some amazing winter artwork from Kiana Mosser 🐇 plus snowfall effects ⛄️ and we now have orange cats 🐈

The full 671B DeepSeek-R1 model is on GitHub Models. You can consume it for free (only a few turns) and it’s available in the llm CLI via my llm-github-models plugin.

I’ll be doing a livestream in 30 minutes exploring whether Reasoning Models (inc DeepSeek-R1) can do complex code optimizations. I’ll be using CPython internals as the benchmark youtube.com/live/aQlfYzgg3…

Everyone who triple captained Mo this week #FPL. Already on 95 pts and we’re only half way through

VS Code Pets 1.30 - the night sky now twinkles in dark mode themes - the menus, config, and details are all localized

Today is the last stream in our RAG Deep Dive series! We'll be showing how to extend RAG with function calling. First I'll use function calling to search a GitHub repo OR an AI Search index, then Anthony Shaw will search Bing using AI Agents SDK. youtube.com/watch?v=maP9lg…

Should AI write tests? Does it write good tests? Will that lead to worse software? @brianokken and I debate that and more with live code demos as we pick apart the generated code and discuss the risks and benefits. youtu.be/a_V-BH_luJ4?si…
