Getting this onboard LED on the Pico W boards to blink using Zephyr RTOS proved quite the challenge. Somehow Gemini found a solution although it certainly went off in tangents. Probably broke every rule in the book - so it's either an AI abomination or an AI work of art, but it finally works.

Another Gemini LLM creation using Zephyr RTOS and various open source libraries. All built on a RPi Pico 2 W board.

In my opinion, AI's power is its comprehension. Point it to a datasheet, github library etc. and hey presto, it has read it all and figured it all out for you.

Early days but I'm already finding Google's Gemini Code Assist VSCode extension to be very useful. I got it to develop a simple driver for an STM LM303 6DoF sensor wired to my new Raspberry Pico 2 W board in approx. 20mins of man effort. Can only improve.

For such a car centric country (US) how is it that hospitals and hotels within NYC just don't know how to do set-down very well. So it's continual local chaos with lots of hocking/hooting (as if that makes these motorists to hurry up).

Last time in NYC (Manhattan) was 30 years ago. Now, as a pedestrian, I love it. Wide pavements and intersections work a treat. Distinctive cycling pathways too and reasonably well used (mainly ebikes), despite cold. But no junction boxes for vehicles. Amazing. Leads to blockages & lots of hooting.

Now I get to see both sides of a breaking story. Neat.
