Damn. I just installed OpenClaw on my M2 Mac and hopped on a plane for our SKO in LAX. United delayed the plane departure by 2 hours (of course) and diverted the flight to Honolulu. And Claw (that's the name of my new AI agent) kept me updated on my rebooking options and new terminal/gate assignments in SFO. All through the free WhatsApp access on United. AND, it refactored all my transferred Python code, built a graph of my emails, installed MariaDB and restored a backup from another PC. And, I almost forgot, fixed my 1337x web scrapping (don't ask) cron job, by CloudFlare-proofing it. All the while sitting in a shitty airline, with shitty food and shittier seats, hurtling across the pacific ocean.

The future is both amazing and shitty.

Hope OpenClaw continues to evolve. It is indeed an amazing piece of work.

And I hope sama doesn't get his grubby greedy hands on OpenClaw.

I feel like we're living in one of those breathless futurist interviews from a 1994 issue of Wired mag.

		I have Claude Max subscription for the main agenttasks. Also use my OpenAI API and Gemini API access for sub-agent work. Once my Olares One is here, will also be using local LLMs on open models. https://one.olares.com/

Did you ask OpenClaw to do all those things? If not did you want it to do all of them?

		I asked it to check why the cron job kept failing, and it checked the cron payload and recommended reasons for the failure. I gave it the approval to go ahead and fix it. it tried different options (like trying different domains, and finally figured out the anti CF option).

		the other tasks (like the MariaDB install and restore, python code refactoring) were a result of the initial requests made to Claw, like graphing my gmail email archives.

I'm assuming there's a typo here, because I can't imagine a flight from LAX to SKO at all, let alone one that goes anywhere close to Honolulu. But I can't figure out what this was supposed to be.
