The amount of times I hear people telling me that “I should just do it in Excel”. Excel. Is not. A database.
Excel is a single-assignment dynamically-typed functional programming language with a really obtuse editor.
Stop… Stop… I’m already dead
Excel is a whole OS unto itself. Like Emacs except you can get out of it.
Good software starts in Excel honestly. But oh god should you not stay there… Its not designed as a database indeed.
Access is the worst of both worlds.
There’s nothing more permanent than a temporary solution
Close enough when your actual database system is written in fucking COBOL.
