I gave GPT-4 a budget of $100 and told it to make as much money as possible. I'm acting as its human liaison, buying anything it says to. Do you think it'll be able to make smart investments and build an online business? Follow along 👀

In one video, I saw you jump from plugins.lua to a config file by putting the cursor over `get_config("plugin")` and doing some (LSP?) command, but now cant find that video again. How did you do it? (I'm missing `:edit <cfile>` when hovering over `source <file path>` in vim 😁 )

how are you supposed to back up a .photoslibrary from #macOS to a #synology NAS using Synology Drive Client? There must be a better way than using time machine? I keep getting "missing local folder or insufficient privileges" error 😞
