AI Thread Summary
To automate the startup of multiple programs in OS X, users can create an Automator script that opens the desired applications and sets them to specific directories or files. Once the script is created, it can be set to launch automatically at login by navigating to System Preferences, selecting Users & Groups, and then adding the script under the Login Items tab. This method streamlines the process of opening multiple terminals and reduces time spent on manual setup each time the user logs in.

Thread 'ChatGPT Examples, Good and Bad'

(I had problems with copy/paste of text and formatting, so I'm posting my examples as screen shots. That is a promising start. :smile: But then I provided values V=1, R1=1, R2=2, R3=3 and asked for the value of I. At first, it said...
Sorry if 'Profile Badge' is not the correct term. I have an MS 365 subscription and I've noticed on my Word documents the small circle with my initials in it is sometimes different in colour document to document (it's the circle at the top right of the doc, that, when you hover over it it tells you you're signed in; if you click on it you get a bit more info). Last night I had four docs with a red circle, one with blue. When I closed the blue and opened it again it was red. Today I have 3...
