New video editor on deck? What’s it worth?
Descript troubles! Refunded, but cancelled for next year… can I build this myself?
Claude Code/Cowork, OpenClaw, and what’s next? Is it even worth it to learn these things? And what about security concerns? Playing around with Claude Code… it’s doing stuff I wanted to automate anyway. File renaming, picture sorting, etc. Is it safe? Is this the future of computing? And still running up against some problems as Claude runs of out tokens or whatever. ChatGPT doesn’t seem to have the same limits on it.
And would you pay $18,000 for an egg? What if it was a golden egg? How could you ever justify that purchase? A digression on numismatics.
