Angepain posted:The problem with VBA is when the one person who bothered to learn Visual Basic leaves and then you have an untouchable magic incantation spreadsheet that everyone is hoping will never break. now of course the answer is "actually train your staff to have better skills to do their job correctly" but that costs money so Work in the NHS and can confirm. I don't even use VBA because of this, simple conditional formatting, lookups and use of tables* is enough to make people scared. When I started a previous job as a ward clerk 4 years ago, the prior admin had been recording dates as "dd mm yyyy". With spaces, as a text string. Sometimes with additional text in the cell. People simply do not understand Excel to be more than "notepad with gridlines". Maybe most annoying thing is that we have a hospital information system that records referral/assessment/discharge dates and demographic data, as you might expect. Trying to get it to generate meaningful reports is impossible though, so we still have to rely on locally recorded data for quarterly/annual reports. The person making said reports for us has a psychology degree and has used R and SPSS, and yet doesn't know how to deal with simple Excel formulae. It's baffling. *actually moving/inserting rows into an Excel table with conditional formatting is a nightmare and I'm begging for Microsoft to let me apply a rule to a named range. VBA would work better for so much of it in the meantime, but I'm not smart or paid enough to figure it out, other than to make a macro to put "shrink to fit" on the ribbon.

even if the editor knows what the cartoon is referencing, many people in this thread, who are perhaps more clued in than most, didn't know (including myself). i don't think it's unreasonable to be cautious about such things. actually sacking the guy is a bit much though

His Divine Shadow posted:I have firefox on mobile since that + ublock is how I use mobile youtube, it's unusable otherwise. On my PC which I use a lot more, I use chrome mainly because firefox's translation plugins can't hold a candle to the one in chrome which can translate a page withot loving it up or reloading it. And that feature alone is too useful for me to give up chrome yet. this always bugged me too but Firefox actually recently got an update which allows for inline translation

The replies under a Big Tweet are going to be boosted bluetick-buyers who are 99% of the time the worst people on the website. Tangentially, been finding a lot of people who I thought would be more scrupulous are still ready to RT bluetick accounts posting poorly-source/framed or straight up incorrect nonsense (even if it's for leftist purposes), and it irks me terribly. e: don't really want to add more posts to this but at the very least, for such an egregiously awful post, MB should be forced to make an apology where they explain themselves extremely precisely if they wish to continue posting here.

raising a child certainly involves effort and reward but i think the "work" i and other posters are thinking of has the slightly more specific definition of "employer pays you to do some bullshit you likely do not care about"

i am also trying to cut down twitter intake - i've logged out of it on my browser so only check it on my phone which i suppose isn't much better, but baby steps. it's hard to disconnect from something which has been the nexus of a lot of social interaction and news over the years but tweetdeck WAS good (improved by bettertweetdeck) before they hosed it, and some enterprising nerds are always trying to bring it back, god bless them https://github.com/dimdenGD/OldTweetDeck

walkers, for example, are produced in a factory which also handles cereals. the tiniest bit can gently caress up your guts if you're sensitive - the legal requirements for something to be called "gluten-free" on the packaging is 20 parts per million.
