I do not like working with people like this, because I don't want to be anywhere near the maintenance burden of a pile of hacks that technically can run a single Excel spreadsheet. I don't even want to be within earshot of people complaining about this. If I even thought about it for too long I'm sure I'd have a giant headache.
I worked with the author for maybe 3 years, I thought he was pretty awesome.
Not surprised he implemented a partial implementation of excel so quickly.
I'm disappointed in myself that I somehow got through most of the article without realizing who the author was (thanks Firefox reader mode); especially since the naming of Wesley and Crusher is too good. Of course it was Basta! Of course it was!
