  • Also good for plain old text manipulation. Bylaws for one of my orgs were like 15+ years out of date. Ask for a detailed read flagging any inconsistencies, check that all references point to real sections, and read the state code and related statutes on these 3 web pages, and provide a working draft and redline document with explanations for changes.

    That was a 4 hour job that took about 15 minutes, and there is no risk because you have to read the output anyway at the end. It takes maybe three iterations on target sections once you do a full read-through, but as a human it was going to take two or three iterations no matter what.

    Besides crafting homeassistant automations that was probably my best use so far.

    Edit: But you’re right, if you’re using it to find out how many rocks to eat in a day or how many letters are in the items on your grocery list, or the best recipe for horse paste that’s a waste of everyone’s time.













  • It hurts my brain to do it that way.

    300 sheets for 1.2 is a nice division by .6: 500 sheets for $2. So now all we gotta do is multiply by .7 to get 350 sheets for 1.40.

    Considering the fold, we are at 330 effective sheets for 1.40. 350 > 330, get the 3 ply (lol).

    This is a little bit funky obviously and just works because of seeing a divisor. If not for that I would have tried once each way to get cost per full effective sheet or cost per half effective sheet to see which one has nicer numbers.

    … Or just open the calculator app.
