Created a custom Python Alfred script that creates an emoji push pin and the year,month,day and time. I use it at the end of email replies so I can track them in my to-do app. Alfred Workflow -> Keyword that calls a local python script run by zsh command line and copies the result to the clipboard.

Created a simple iOS app using VS Code, Cody from SourceGraph, and Xcode. Extended the basic Xcode template. Found a Stackoverflow article about Info.plist setting locations in new Xcode 13 versions. Good example of coding, AI Code Assist, and reading community posts with minimal Swift knowledge.

Installed and trying out the Chrome built-in AI API

Set the Chrome Canary flag "optimization-guide-on-device-model" to Enabled instead of Enabled BypassPerfRequirement.

That fixed chrome://components not downloading the model

Also, enable the Summarization API flag separately and restart.
