i read something once where david lynch described his creative process, and he basically just comes up with random stream of consciousness ideas for a scene and writes it down - he says the best time for this is early in the morning when you haven't fully woken up yet and your brain is still shuffling through random thoughts. then later he goes through his list of ideas and tries to assemble them in some kind of order. i imagine he gets even more bonkers when there isn't a major network all up in his business, which probably explains why the new twin peaks was so ridiculous, practically beyond enjoyable.

i feel like the reason "good at excel" people are so sought after in office environments is it takes a special genetic variation of brainworms to deal with the tedium nightmare that is programming in general, but then wanting to do it in the most jank, awkward, and inconvenient environment possible

Excel is horrible in hindsight, after you have and learn to use the tools that professional programmers use. But for people that have absolutely no experience, Excel is an excellent piece of software that lets them explore the edges of problem solving using approximations of programming concepts that they can then dig more into and start learning (jump from formulae to VBA, for instance). It's a supremely successful low-code tool, and like all low-code tools it's just a stepping stone towards actual programming tools when the problems get more complicated.

My fav thing about Excel is that there's no way to turn off automatic date formatting, and like an incel, it thinks literally everything is one.

I'm guessing it was hardcoded 30 years ago and no one knows how to stop it now

Until 365, if you selected a whole bunch of cells in Excel, you couldn't then deselect individual cells.

im a fucking monster

its not that they can't fix these things, it's that their userbase are the people who scream themselves hoarse if something doesn't work exactly like it does in their 1995 copy of Excel For Dummies.

tossup between this and if you have a CSV file where the first column header is "ID" excel will treat it as a "sylk file" and gently caress all the formatting up then refuse to treat it as a regular csv

i used 3ds max a lot as a teen, it was loving wild back then and way better than bryce or whatever the gently caress. unfortunately i got very used to the workflow/ui on it and didn't really care to relearn for hobby poo poo.

excel is good, more people being able to automate their tasks is good. programmers only complain because they resent when their status as greasemonkeys is revealed having to write 10kloc of incredibly unsexy framework java to reimplement the thing some rockstar accountant knocked out in a bit of excel a decade ago.
