As the saying goes, the first trillion is the hardest. This year proved to me beyond any doubts that I understand nothing about the markets, the fact the world's largest (publicly traded) company raised 125% in a single year boggles my

It really is weird. Granted I am very much a layman and have no true understanding behind cloud infrastructures, I've always find it really weird that Amazon of all companies won that race over more intertwined players.

That's irrelevant tho, Excel isn't meant to be Outlook so why should it also be able to send email straightforwardly? The fact you're even able to send one thru VBA to me shows it is not "too simple for complex tasks&quo

Well, I will see myself out as this is indeed an unproductive conversation, it feels like I am speaking to a Linux zealot about why my grandmother has no need for Arch. But just to answer a last time, inspecting files is in no way somethin

To be fair, I wasn't arguing in bad faith and I would've welcomed arguments (should you care enough to participate) to tell me why you are right. Instead you throw Word into the mix, for which those theories (perhaps ill-phrased,

>"too complicated for simple tasks" How can Excel possibly be too complicated for simple tasks? It is pretty much as straightforward as it goes when it comes to grid-file viewing and editing. You can show it to anyone from a hi

I'm somewhat of a layman, but I'd wager A/B pages printed 50:50 (by IP for instance) could lead to a rather solid conclusion if ran long enough. On the other hand, eh, chat bubbles suck and you can quite confidently say they

What a week for SpaceX! Two days ago they landed Bob and Doug, and now they succeeded to hop a water tower (as a side project nonetheless, AFAIK only a small part of SpaceX is on this team)! Can't wait to see future iterations and impr

But judge and juree make the final decisions, and the lawyer issues run much deeper in terms of inequalities. I don't think lawyer perception of client attractiveness is the core issue in this case, they'll (naturally) mostly care
