@MosquitoCoasty I"m not sure I qualify under the astute technologist moniker, but I'm a 66yo Controls Engineer that uses AI to write code for VBA - I can do in a morning what it would take me a whole day+ to do. Find arcane information, quick voltage drop calcs, etc.

She was built for that baby. Build the life where she can stay.
