What do you mean you want to use Excel to manage everyone’s calendars? And now you want to export that horribly built calendar management spreadsheet to Google Calendar? What do you mean you want the Google Calendar entries automatically formatted based on who is working on a particular day? I mean yes it’s possible but-…

I tried to read that out loud and summoned something. Please help me, I’m scared.
Pinhead: No. It is a means by which to summon us.
Give in. Let it take you.
Everything is okay. Shhhhhhh.
this straight up looks like a chemical formula
If I cross my eyes hard enough on mobile… I imagine I can see dickbutt in there somewhere…
Further up the thread, someone mentioned that writing good software is about communicating concepts to people, first and foremost.
This, code obfuscation, is what it looks like to communicate exclusively to the compiler instead.
Excel has entered the chat
For real though, I have written some truly monstrous operations in Excel.
VBA has made things so, so much easier since I started learning how to use it.
Well, this is exactly what mathematicians do.
