#99 – Smart Assistants, AI Recorders, and a GitHub Experiment

from Technically Working

This week, we’re figuring things out as we go—talking about smart assistants, digital business cards, and how we’re using AI to simplify work. Podcast Growth the Direct Way – Inspired by Allison from Podfeet.com, we discuss an aggressive (but effective) approach to getting people to subscribe. Would You Buy a ChatGPT Speaker? – Damashe is diving into Home Assistant and debating whether a locally run AI assistant is worth the setup. Plod vs. B: The AI Recording Showdown – How do these two AI-powered recording devices compare, and which one makes more sense for real-world use? GitHub for Beginners – Michael’s learning GitHub, and Damashe thinks it might be time for a mini-series. Digital Business Cards Done Right? – Michael gets his Dot Card working but runs into some accessibility quirks. Also, Tip Jar subscribers got an exclusive 21-minute bonus episode where we went deep into navigating the Mac’s Terminal, Zsh vs. Bash, and some quick navigation tricks.
