Free LLM extension for VS Code and JetBrains, replace ChatGPT and Copilot: Continue.dev

[@WestLAComputerExpertLosAngeles]

i am trying to run Continue is VS code and I get the error: Error activating the Continue extension.. I am on a copilotpc+ with an arm processor. Is there an issue with running Continue with arm?

It would be interesting to look at the latest version of LM Studio and contrast it with Ollama. I like both, and both have their advantages. It would be nice if people expert in Continue would do a comparison.

The biggest problem with LMStudio is it uses too much resource just on it's own. I think last time I checked it was consuming 2gb of memory, and that is an issue for the memory hungry LLMs, specially on a Mac. They tried to solve this recently by adding an update they called headless mode, but I'm still not satisfied.

I believe ollama limits the context to 2k making it hard for the LLM to preform to the max. There is a way to overcome that but it's a little bit complicated.

Small feedback. It feels weird, not natural, the way the video is trimmed and jumps from one point to another. I prefer the original, even if a bit longer. At least for me.
