If you have to ask, you can’t afford it

It depends on the scale. I’ll agree that excel is a great tool for household finances.

Without any additional parentheses, the division sign is assumed to separate numerators and denominators within a complete expression, in which case you would reduce each separately. It’s very, very marginally ambiguous at best.

It’s not even a good analytics tool. If you submit an academic paper with excel plots in it, I’ll reject that shit without reading it and type “lmaoooooooo…” To the review character limit.

My 12 year old child knows how to use matplotlib and he thinks Santa can fit down a chimney.

Yes, but do they typically die by being impaled through 8 layers of clothing by a mysteriously missing weapon, or having their faces bashed in?

The article equivocates a bit, but suspecting foul play based on the state of the bodies is not unreasonable IMO. The only real thing missing was a viable motive. Reading between the lines, it almost sounds like someone hallucinating from altitude sickness could have decided to “put them out of misery,” fearing that they’d be accused of cowardice for abandoning them on the mountain to freeze to death? Idk, either way it’s a super interesting read.

The problem is that you’ll fall off the technical curve eventually. It’s almost inevitable. Even if you read and study every day and keep up with every bit of technical meta, your brain will slowly turn to goo and you’ll find it hard to stay ahead of younger engineers purely on technical competence alone. At a certain point you need to develop some form of leadership skills so you can turn your experience into a multiplier.

Eventually the cheese would begin to form a singularity and the grater would exist on the boundary, slowing their own perception of time with each subsequent grate.

All information is empirical, but all decisions are not. Life clearly requires approximation, and this is such a simple idea which a ton of really smart people fail to grasp.
