Can you explain more about how you use wolfram one day to day? I’m very curious.

  1. I use it to caption images for blog posts (e.g. the images in https://simulavr.com/blog/technical-overview/ https://simulavr.com/blog/technical-overview/) 2. I use it for easy image hosting that I can control in the Wolfram command line (vs. imgur, etc). 3. I use it to upload lengthy text files (e.g. error outputs when programming) over things like pastebin. 4. Until very recently, I used it to manage our site's email waitlist (setting up an email submission form was 1 Wolfram function). 5. I use it to visualize personal data (productivity stuff, timelog data, etc). 6. I use it to run mathematical computations when reading technical materials. Wolfram can do things like "show how this integral is derived in a human-readable way", which makes it easier to understand steps glossed over in math proofs. 7. I use it to collage images together when sharing them with other people (https://reference.wolfram.com/language/ref/ImageCollage.html https://reference.wolfram.com/language/ref/ImageCollage.html). 8. I use it to make timelines when making back-of-the-napkin Gantt charts (e.g. https://www.wolframcloud.com/obj/george.w.singer/business/png/milestones_timeline.png https://www.wolframcloud.com/obj/george.w.singer/business/pn...), or histories (e.g. https://www.wolframcloud.com/obj/george.w.singer/business/png/historical_timeline.png https://www.wolframcloud.com/obj/george.w.singer/business/pn...) Hope this is helpful =)
