  • Not sure excel ever gives that sensation.

    I do both manual labor, and what most non-IT people would call “IT” at my job. I’d guess it’s about a 30/70 split for me during an average year.

    Working in Excel can 100% result in that sensation of immense satisfaction if you’re working with the right type of data, and you’re able to build something complicated and beautiful. Most people are just putting numbers in order or doing basic accounting. But, if you learn enough, working in Excel (or google sheets) can become, more or less, programming.

    It is definitely my favorite thing to do at work if I can block out enough time to do what I want.











  • I don’t really know anything about crypto, but I’ve heard for many years how criminals use it to ransom things. I’ve always thought the “bitcoin is anonymous like cash” angle never made sense, since the entire point of the blockchain is to record ALL of it, and eventually that paper trail is going to tie it to someone. (It sounds like I’m somewhat correct about that since you mention “wash[ing]” it.)

    I’ve never heard of monero. How does that work with the washing and whatnot? It’s a whole world I know nothing about, but find interesting.
