Of course there’s a balance between this and a “Sanitation Engineer’s” responsibilities with managing the strategic distribution of liquid-based surfactant solutions to optimize surface friction and eliminate biological hazards. 🧹

“Let’s make sure the proper ball is in the right court.” 🏀

It’s almost as if EAs actually run the company (callback to our Vimcal EA slogan [see bottom of the newsletter]). 😉
1 Tech Tip
Ask questions about a YouTube video instead of watching the whole thing
On some YouTube videos, there’s an Ask button that lets you ask questions about the video right inside YouTube.
You can use it to do things like:
summarize the video
find a specific moment’s timestamp
pull out the main takeaways
So instead of scrubbing through a 40-minute video trying to find one answer, you can just ask for it.
Backup tip
If you don’t see the Ask button, you can do something similar with ChatGPT or Claude:
Click "...more" in the description below the YouTube video
Scroll down and click "Show transcript"
Select and copy the transcript text. You can hide the timestamps using the three-dot menu in the transcript panel
Paste it into ChatGPT or Claude and ask whatever you'd like about the video
Now you can find what you're looking for in a 40-minute video without scrubbing through the entire thing.
For a refresher on past Tech Tips without digging through your emails, they’re all available in a single post right here (doing my best to update once a month).
Thank you for reading!
Catch you next Thursday~
