when the client asks how the updates to their conversion tracking are going that you were supposed to deliver last week

strapping in to a build a 1 pager with static content and stock images

you're telling me a horse drew this carriage? Buddy, no way...that's a photo

just noticed my latest n8n instance has all these additional built in stats to track stuff like my token usage (not seeing approx costs, but theres so many models that might be a lot to display)

i can't tell you how many times i watched this. people are so dang creative...
