    Fucking excel. Lemmy lemme tell you. At a former position my boss wanted me to make an economic model in excel. I begged to do it in R but no dice. Annoyingly VBA was the skill all other employers were interested in (in my brief foray into industry). I had a million sads.

      VBA is horrid and incredibly outdated. I’ve written c# code that ran identical calculations on data being run through excel at literally over a million times the speed.
