See: 5 Free GUI For FFmpeg[^]
A tool like inshellisense might be handy too, it can be used from the command-line, powershell, bash etc, but I don't think it offers FFmpeg support yet.

I think the point is that any one user only has a small number of commands that they use regularly, pertaining to:
- type of file: mov, ts, mp4, jpg, avi, etc...
- operation: crop, adjust color, brightness, contrast, convert, denoise, etc...
- stream assignment, etc...
You learn the commands that you need, and thankfully there is loads of help available on the Interweb, and (most important of all) the documentation is pretty good. I have a list of all the commands that I have ever used and just copy paste new commands as I need to do new things.
My interest BTW, is splitting movies to pngs, and reassembling movies with audio, adjusting frame rates, trimming and editing movies. I also use it with Blender where the preferred output is png files.
It's brilliant!

Fair enough, but in my career I have been into quite a few discussions / arguments where I have held up an architecture, data structure or whatever, as far better suited for future extensions than another one. Then I have been voted down; "We can't worry about future extensions now!", even though the future proof alternative was no more costly to implement. In several cases, there was the "Not invented by me" syndrome: The first implementation was done the way the most senior developer suggested (or the most aggressive new-and-upcoming-star youngsters).
In one case, the project management realized only three months later that the project had a "technical debt" - a major rewrite of core modules were required to handle the extensions for the next release. Usually it takes at least six months
Far too many "agile"!

Far too many "agile" proponents consider it a mortal sin to understand the real problem to be solved before writing 'int main(...' Knowing and understanding the problem domain in advance is against the principles of agile programming.
Not that books on agile development says so. Yet, far too many developers (and project managers) says so (at least indirectly).

The concept of whitelisting CAs is needed to guarantee privacy for EU citizens.
Even now, CAs affiliated with state actors can compromise the chain of trust.
The EU needs a mechanism to establish and restore trust, because currently there is none.
I expect a lot of articles about why "more regulation will lead to less privacy".
But that only makes sense if the EU government would allow for legislation lobbying or personal interests.
Both are highly illegal in the EU.

So does that mean I can do the "What's the connection between an old slice of bread and Suella Braverman? They'll both end up as toast" joke or not?

Depends on whether it's a joke or a political statement.

Interesting statement. Googling however does not suggest that it is true.
For example following seems to suggest that it is allowed and regulated.

Chartered Accountants? Generally Accepted Accounting Practices? Is that like "fake" software engineers? Is this an EU joke?

History belies the European Commission claims that this will lead to better security. What it will lead to is lower security and the bad guys simply ignoring the law, as usual.

I am posting this just after sending my resignation. The job I took four months ago, I spent two months fighting the IT department (they insisted for weeks that SQL Server is server software and not for notebooks), then for two months I did odd jobs but they had just no work for me. I was literally playing guitar and watching messenger.
There's not much work about, but I got two interviews, and two offers, so I took the better one and I start in a week. C#/Angular/SQL, my usual bag. Looking forward to being part of a competent team that writes actual code!!!
