Thanks for reminding me to check if the REGEXEXTRACT, REGEXREPLACE, and REGEXTEST functions had landed for me yet. They have! Good, because sometime in 2027 the library providing R…

I'd like to see it compete in the Financial Modeling World Cup, say in Las Vegas this December. https://excel-esports.com

MS Office Tools menu has a "Spreadsheet Compare" application. It is quite good for diffing 2 spreadsheets. Of course it cannot catch logic errors, human or ML.

Thank you for your tone. I agree! Had Starting Forth, Thinking Forth, and Elizabeth D Rather books at one time. Reread TCL the Misunderstood (Antirez), every few years for the memo…

I will read it, closely, but was all hopped-up expecting some new implementation, as I am down the Smalltalk rabbit hole lately, including watching lots of old videos. And perusing…

No mention of PicoLisp (application server, embedded Prolog, etc, etc...) or Dylan. No way Teller saw them and they didn't make the list.

See https://www.felienne.com/public-appearances and ctrl-f for Excel. Especially the videos, like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bdfNvYPxkOY . Then have a gander at https://suppor…

Out of my depth here, but I do have 5 Prolog books I can't seem to let go of. I used to dabble. A lot. Out of all my numerous prog-lang infatuations, only 3 have stuck: Erlang, Pro…

Exciting! Was Rebol user for years, dabbled in Factor. Picolisp too. All great for interactive use, but the latter two seemed to have more learning curve than I could commit to. Ey…

Tunney-jart, ape, etc are so impressive... I'd like to see some real competition for Access, at least on Linux and/or BSDs. Because Access is untouchable in it's space. Because it …
