Use cases
- Used Claude Code to update my website: Fixed small issues, upgraded two Next.js versions, improved the design, and imported my old articles from WordPress and Substack
- Used Claude Cowork to convert 553 .fit files from COROS into a spreadsheet and analyze them with Gemini (which has a record of my recent fitness workouts)
- Used Claude to build a 12-week fitness program (as a HTML page), analyze and tweak my workouts daily, and rate my food intake
- Used Google Antigravity to write down new Japanese words I learned. It suggests the English translation and sometimes teach me about different usage of words (unlimited autocomplete for the win!)
- Used Claude Cowork to automate my bookkeeping. Whenever I have a new receipt, I put it in a Receipts folder and ask in the Bookkeeping conversation to log the new receipt. Claude Cowork will extract information such as the supplier, item description, and amount (in SGD) and compile it, with the existing data, into a new Google Sheet. (Claude Cowork cannot edit a Sheet, which I think works out better because I can have all the past records in separate spreadsheets and "roll back" if necessary.) For an extra pair of eyes, it will also let me know if something is not tax-deductible according to the IRAS rules.
