SSAB - March 21, 2024

Is it the Spring solstice? Spent the evening trying to automate! Again! Steve when will you give up?!?! Got some things done and couldn’t do other things. Tried out Zapier and connected a bunch of APPs to it, Google Sheets, Descript, YouTube, etc. Managed to get YouTube titles etc pulled into a spreadsheet that updates automatically so now I have a record of all of the videos I uploaded to my language vlog. HOWEVER, how much more automation could I do? Can I automate transcription? Emails? And how much of this would break if I changed something? And yes, Google does enable you to script all of this without using a third party such as Zaper. But when do you want this done by? Pull ups NOT done! 72 total as of this recording and owww does the back of my arms and lats hurt! How did Bring Sally up go? ONLY one minute! Russian class done after work, followed by a Chinese class at 9.30. Didn’t feel nervous at all before my Chinese class which is probably a first in a very long time. I’m aiming to have this teacher just focus on grammar with me. Horrible guobaorou 锅包肉 for dinner, should’ve made something at home instead!
