Demolishun35051129dLets not forget that some companies are entirely run by apps written in Excel.

typosaurus12171129d@Demolishun some of those sheets are more advanced than our software. Excel is the vim for managers

Demolishun35051129d@retoor I used VBA to fix security in an HMI app years ago. The VBA side of that app was really nice to do things the base program could not do.

Ranchonyx10512129d@Demolishun Fucking hell, yes.
We got a customer who's whole storage management system is "written" in excel with some VBA.
Made by the CEO who used to be in IT.

typosaurus12171129d@Ranchonyx / @Demolishun I always was amazed how creative people could be with it. I did "professional" VBA development for a half year and we were one of the few companies that did. So, many customers. All companies who had a self written accessdb came to us when it got out of control. I did see cool stuff. Imagine now, customers building with gpt. Imagine the dllhooks everywhere they don't understand. Must be funny business now
Managers: Got some good code from our friends, please integrate with our code. Thanks!
Me: What programming lang is .rtf ?
