    I had a feeling ChatGPT might be a good application for this... I just uploaded a transcript from one of my course videos and asked it to create multiple choice questions based on the content. It did a surprisingly good job, and only requires minor editing to get the questions to make sense! This is going to save me a lot of time!

    Scrambling to get all my work done today that requires power while we still have it. There's already a bunch of neighborhoods without power, I assume we're next.

    Winds are gusting to 54mph today!! 💨

    I like to think of myself as someone with strong file management skills, but in reality my workflow is like:

    • shoot stuff on my iphone
    • download drone clips to iphone
    • when editing, search thru SD cards but find nothing
    • scroll thru camera roll, airdrop clips to computer

    It's gonna be a while before AI takes all our jobs though.

    Or maybe not, since it speaks with the confidence of a mediocre white man while gaslighting me throughout this whole reply.

    AI is cool.

    I just finished recording and editing 20 new video lessons for a course.

    Uploaded the videos to Sonix and it created a (mostly) accurate transcript.

    Uploaded the transcript to ChatGPT and asked it to create a summary of the lesson for the landing page!

    I've been making so many graphics in Keynote lately for use in videos and blog posts, but I really wish there was a quick keyboard shortcut to export the current slide as a PNG. Right now it takes about 9 clicks to export a slide.

    So far today is going great. I tried to fix my bike's flat tire and it went flat again an hour later. And now my external SSDs aren't mounting which is making it very hard to do work.

    Can I call in a "technical difficulties day"? It's like a sick day but for my stuff.

    Testing the ability to post to my website without sending every post out to my Mastodon followers. If you can see this post, you're either following my website directly, or I broke something.

    These settings remove the blatant noise from my mentions, but it turns out there's just a lot of actual very confused people debating whether people should be treated with respect.

    If that was my last tweet it was nice knowing you all 👋

    The elmo club is out in full force tonight and I have no idea what I'm going to wake up to tomorrow in my replies and DMs 🥲

    Shoutout to all my friends who, in the last 3 years, I have only communicated with by exchanging high fives on @Duolingo!

    We should hang out more often!

    I made ChatGPT write the Laws of Cuteness

    > The first law of cuteness states that the cuteness of a cat cannot be created or destroyed, but can only be transferred or converted from one form to another.

    > The second law of cuteness states that the cuteness of a cat will always tend towards maximum cuteness.

    > The third law of cuteness states that the cuteness of a cat approaches maximum cuteness as the cat's environment approaches absolute adorableness.

    > The zeroth law of cuteness states that if two cats are in cuteness equilibrium with a third cat, they are also in cuteness equilibrium with each other.

    Remember folks, "token exchange" does *not* mean "let me exchange a customer ID for a token"!

    Good thread on how remotely connected Honda, Nissan, Infiniti, and Acura cars were all able to be remotely controlled knowing only the VIN.

    A corporate AMEX acct has a max length of 20 chars for the street address, and no second line. Between a 4-digit street number and "Apt XXX", that leaves only 8 left for the street name and type.

    So cross your fingers that USPS figures out this abbreviated street name I guess.

    As someone who doesn't cook with meat or eggs, this whole thread is incredibly confusing. It reads like everyone is in on a gag that is going completely over my head. https://twitter.com/warghetti/status/1595407307495587841
