These answers come from the year-long archive of my previous chatbot that lived on my previous site iamnicola.ai. I’ve curated the most useful sessions—real questions from operators exploring AI workflows, experimentation, and conversion work—and lightly edited them so you get the original signal without the noise.

Explain me this: function autoResize(textarea) { textarea.style.height = 'auto'; textarea.style.height = (textarea.scrollHeight + 2) + 'px'; // 2px extra for padding }
This JavaScript function, autoResize, is designed to automatically adjust the height of a textarea element based on its content. When called, it sets the textarea's height to 'auto', allowing it to expand or shrink based on the content. Then, it sets the height to the scrollHeight of the textarea plus 2 pixels for padding, ensuring that all content is visible without the need for manual resizing.
