Stop writing Excel like it's assembly
I suck at excel - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0nbkaYsR94c I would write the equivalent of: /* Tax rate */ var b1 = 50%; /* Salary */ var b2 = 120000; var b3 = b1 * b2; When excel lets you write: var tax_rate = 50%; var salary = 120000; var b3 = tax_rate * salary; I just didn't know any better. This class of problem can be solved by a linter and auto-formatter to automatically detect and use excel best practices. Which also helps you learn best practices. Stop reading and writing excel like it's assembly. Upgrade your excel to the modern era. If you have…

I suck at excel - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0nbkaYsR94c I would write the equivalent of: /* Tax rate */ var b1 = 50%; /* Salary */ var b2 = 120000; var b3 = b1 * b2; When excel lets you write: var tax_rate = 50%; var salary = 120000; var b3 = tax_rate * salary; I just didn't know any better. This class of problem can be solved by a linter and auto-formatter to automatically detect and use excel best practices. Which also helps you learn best practices. Stop reading and writing excel like it's assembly. Upgrade your excel to the modern era. If you have suggestions or recommendations I'd love to hear them. I just saw the above video linked on HN and thought I can solve this! The current version is extremely simple/naïve/ugly.

I started to track my expenses on excel sheets earlier this year. It was interesting to see how much I spent casually on just another hangout with friends or on education. Excel sheets are painful, at least for me. So I built this with my friend: (it's just MVP) http://accountant.besperk.com Edit: Coming up next: > Mobile site and apps asap. > Graphs and reports > SSL > Custom Alerts (when you cross a certain limit, that you define, for certain tag) > Pre populated tags.

Hi HN, I built Eigendrum, a web tool that solves the 2D wave equation for arbitrary shapes so you can hear what they sound like as drums. How it works: * Solves -∇²u = λu using finite element analysis (Kφ = λMφ) on a triangle mesh. * Validated to <0.1% error against closed-form solutions for circles (Bessel zeros) and rectangles. * Sound model factors in strike location, Rayleigh damping, and mallet width. * Includes Kac drums I & II to demonstrate identical sound spectra from different geometries. * No frameworks, build steps, or dependencies. Repo and tests:…

A couple of years ago, I had an interesting idea. What if there was a marketplace where all the underlying tech was open-source? The order management system, the storefront, customer support, etc. The marketplace would simply connect to the seller’s infra instead of locking them in. If, for some reason, the seller is removed from the marketplace, their software stays with them and they can continue accepting orders directly. This model can be used to disrupt any marketplace from AirBNB to UberEats: building tech for home renters and restaurants and later, leveraging that to build a competing…
