You need to put a ! Before the [ so your image displays correctly and the [] should be empty

You can put in an alt text between the brackets (which I believe is used by screen readers for those with visual impairments).

I just straight up pasted the link without any formatting. I’m on Kbin, it shows up as a link that can be expanded to a full image.

Ironically, as I’ve heard, excel itself doesnt have any dependencies, they develop and maintain their own libraries for everything.

2013-2016 excel is GOATed tbh. Usable and without the cloud bullshit Microsoft tried to push in the coming years

(Yes, I still wish this wasn’t the industry standard office suite)

I’ve worked for a company that used google instead of microsoft, man… that was hard. It’s not standard for nothing, it’s a lot better.

My company used Google for a few years. Higher level Excel users hated Sheets and didn’t give up Excel. But for the rest of us riffraff Sheets was great. The collaboration features work really well, better than Office 360.

I’m one of the Excel guys, I live by tables, PowerQuery, VBA/UDFs, and loading data from APIs and SQL databases. If any of that functionality lives in Sheets I’ve never been able to figure it out productively.

My last contract used Sheets and I felt like a toddler, it’s too different for my tastes.

Same here. Usually office 2007 + saveaspdf plugin + local language pack is my way to go, but recently started using only office and Im amazed how compatible it is, at least for my usage.

I work in Data centers. A few years back I saw a banking customer with a mainframe computer in their hall while we were upgrading the buildings cooling systems.

RPG too

To find experienced RPG devs you basically need to recruit in retirement homes

But these ancient IBM systems are still used very widely - for example as the financial backend of huge banks.

It seems to be solid for making calculators. I’ve used a number of build optimizers for various games that are made in Excel.

Edit: Actually I guess they’re Google Sheets. Idk how the feature sets compare.
