  • Storage data structures. Database tables are designed for fast read/write. Excel is designed for fast simultaneous parallel computation.

    To get a sense of what this looks like, you can read more about their data structures; Databases typically store data in what’s called a “B Tree” and spreadsheets typically store as a format that can be easily converted into a “Directed Acyclic Graph” (although Excel lets you turn off the “acyclic” part if you allow circular references).

    Although, with Excel specifically, there’s probably not much difference since it has some database functionality now.






  • There is only one set of facts.

    There is only one ground truth, yes, but the set of facts that live in my head and the set of facts that live in yours will be different. This is called “theory of mind” and most humans develop it around age 4-8.

    Good effort,

    Thanks!

    instead of educating yourself, get someone else to do it.

    Work smarter, not harder

    Instead of posting a nearly useless comment,

    Cruel irony, using my own words against me

    go get yourself an education

    I did, but I’m not on the same wavelength as you, so I still have a ways to go :(

    I’ll give you a head start

    Thank God, I didn’t even know it was a race

    it’s all in the algorithm.

    Which one? I’m guessing quicksort.

    I’m going to respond as if you posted this in good faith.

    How about you cite your claims and pull people out of potential filter bubbles?

    When I search for stuff I don’t find information that leads me to the same conclusion as you. Clearly we’re operating on two different sets of facts.

    So instead of posting the most nearly useless kind of comment possible, educate and enlighten.
