Are you showing the latest version? My changes aren’t showing up. They must not have saved. It is not in any way because I didn’t actually do anything,

Mr. Nice! posted:in 2011 during the lead up to a major ship inspection while i was still in the navy, i gave all the division officers on the ship a standard spreadsheet format to use to list and track all their discrepancies (my division had one that was around 10k line items because i had to track every single fuse on the ship). they were supposed to save an updated version with their division name in a particular directory on our share drive. i then had a master sheet with a macro that would pull the relevant info from everyone's spreadsheets and compile them into a single document. the front sheet of this workbook had the charts and actionable statistics to put on the powerpoint presentation that was given daily to the captain, the commodore's staff, the admiral's staff, and whoever else felt like showing up.

but really - what's a good font for data? everyone knows Courier New sucks, but I recently found out that's the worst Courier variant. Courier Prime is really nice imo.

Airtable gets like 5% of the way there better way to what? excel does a fuckin lot if you just need a personal budget or organizational data store without a rdbms it goes a long way google sheets will export to bigquery if you need that i guess, much like excel to access

DELETE CASCADE posted:comparing bigquery to access is like comparing a grizzly bear to a photo of a toy shaped like a grizzly bear you are messing up the order of the analogy here. bigquery: phd built perfect garbage used either to place ads or waste money thinking you're doing big data. access: pretty dumb database built by idiots letting millions of people get paid on time and keeping track of another billion mundane little things in the line of the useful functioning of society.

Gentle Autist posted:access owns the last time i used access was volunteering at the hawaii humane society back in 2012. i did a lot of data entry of chip information provided by vets so if one of the pets that came through was chipped they could easily find the owner. a lot of the chips were from trap and release feral cat groups.

Gentle Autist posted:access owns I reverse engineered an access database that was used to track the equipment issued to security guards on shift. I remember when it was first explained to me how I had to start any new hire's name with a number to save the profile and how I couldn't delete the block of equipment that didn't exist because the number would go down but you can't add new entries because Jerry on swing shift added his staff members as equipment entries and because he didn't start them with a number we couldn't transfer them to profile. The guy who made this system has been gone for 2 years, but he left this binder full of screenshots.
