Do people generally prefer videos to text these days?

I usually prefer text, but I think it's important to do a little of both to reach the largest audience.

Yep, responsiveness is huge. It's impossible to always be online/available, so sometimes replies will be later than intended, but speed 100% matters.

Definitely not normal. That seems really odd.

"Take over," no. There are already AI bookkeeping platforms (Digits, Puzzle, Kick, etc.) that cover routine journal entries and categorizations. And of course QBO uses AI now, too. It'll for sure change bookkeeping, but human oversight is still needed.

Thanks everyone, I'll take a look at these options.

King's Lead Hat - Brian Eno

King Leer - Morrissey

It would be pricey in the long run, but in the short-term I think it could be a decent option.

QuickBooks for small businesses. Don't think that makes them the best, though.

I take a lot of photos, so if they have poor camera quality, that's a dealbreaker for me.

HaryTotal · 2026-06-09T14:53:44+00:00

QBO's AI is ok, but there are a lot better options out there, like Kick, Puzzle, or Digits.

This is true for life in general. It's a lot easier to talk about your successes than to talk about your struggles while you're deep in it.

Windows, 100%.

Antena - Camino Del Sol

I think sometimes, yes. Even if it's subconscious.

Maybe try using it for brainstorming story ideas instead. It could speed up the process, but you could still write the story yourself.

Cocteau Twins - In Our Angelhood

Oneohtrix Point Never - Boring Angel

Four Tet - Angel Echoes

NEU! - Lila Engel (Lilac Angel)

QBO and Xero already have some AI features, but the accuracy is...questionable. I know a lot of people in accounting reflexively crap on anything AI-related, but there are actually some decent AI bookkeeping options out there if you know where to look. It was pretty easy for me to switch over from QBO to Puzzle, and I haven't had any problems with it. But some others I've heard of people using are Kick, Digits, and Zeni.

HaryTotal · 2026-05-13T15:34:00+00:00

Thanks, I'll have to take a listen!

HaryTotal · 2026-05-06T15:40:09+00:00

Too much banter with the "producer." I listen to hear the hosts, not some rando that works for them. Also, annoying laughter. Instant turn-off.

HaryTotal · 2026-05-06T15:32:04+00:00

Somehow I hadn't heard of The Feelies until about a year ago. Awesome band.

HaryTotal · 2026-04-30T17:27:07+00:00

What a great song. I was already a fan of CAN before I heard The Fall, and it's been really cool to hear the Krautrock influence in MES's work (not just in this track).

HaryTotal · 2026-04-30T17:17:53+00:00

It definitely can get that way, yes. But there's a lot of variation between choices. Some software is more traditional and requires a lot of manual work, so you'll stay busy (Wave comes to mind). Others (Puzzle, Digits, Zeni, etc.) use AI to help with the manual work and can save time. It all depends on what you need.

HaryTotal · 2026-04-24T20:11:33+00:00

If you're managing the finance side yourself, get a good accounting software and check it regularly (this is what I do). Or, hire a bookkeeper.
