Category: Tutorials
You are in the right place if you want a lesson you can follow, not a glossary and not a product homepage. This shelf holds most of the articles on Analytics Made Simple. Two paths sit inside it on purpose. SQL is the database path: you have rows, and you need to ask a question without exporting another spreadsheet. AI is the tool path: chat products, open-weight models, and the jobs those tools are actually good at. Other tutorials land here when they teach a skill that does not belong on a narrower shelf.
A category page is the pile. A series page is the path, with a place to start and an order. If you open a tag or page 2 of this list, you are in a filing cabinet. The lesson is the article, or the series hub that lines the articles up.
Where to start: if the pain is a table, open the SQL series and use the first part on that page. If the pain is a model name or a chat tool, open the AI category and pick the product you already have on screen. If you are not sure which job you have, open Learn and choose the track that matches the work, not the logo.
Loops, retries, and runaway tasks
Retries need a new tactic. Cap loops, watch the first run, find Stop first, and leave send and delete unarmed until a person approves.
Where did my file go, across tools
Yesterday’s attachment is not in today’s empty chat. Hunt the thread, Project, Memory, or Downloads path before you ask what the file said.
Grok Imagine: text to image from zero
Imagine needs a real brief: subject, setting, style, exact text. Inspect every letter at 100% and kill misspellings before the deck.
Research, planning, and writing with Gemini
Research and writing with Gemini works when you force a pipeline: questions, trusted sources, outline, draft with placeholders, then verify. Mark unknowns. Humans own the byline.
Autonomy levels: watch, approve, walk away
Pick watch, approve, or walk away on purpose. If you typed save and the agent sent mail, send was armed when you left the chair.
