Takeover more power and then move people to markdown with a sleight of hand. I cannot cope with MS Office anymore. I was in finance 5 years, plenty of Excel work, when I open Excel today I am quickly reminded how painful it is and go back to Python.
- fzumstein 6y agoI agree with you mostly, but Excel is still often a good choice for reporting. And with a package like xlwings, you can do it all from Python.
- MarcScott 6y agoI'm with you. So many people I work with don't understand my visceral hatred of Office and Google's offering. It's not that I think they are inherently bad pieces of software, they're actually all pretty amazing. It's just that after years of using markdown, org-mode and python, I get frustrated by how long it takes to debug a spreadsheet or format a document.
