I'm torn on this... Excel is so abused by engineers already, I'm not sure I want too many more engineering-friendly features added. Python, R, MATLAB, JMP... please, just use another tool. The other solutions are not quick and dirty, and sometimes quick and dirty is all you need - but good lord, know when to move on to another tool. We have an abortion of an Excel sheet that does data collection, including ftp and telnet, and then tries to manipulate the resulting huge data sets. I blame MS for removing the row and column limits that used to nip such silliness in the bud.:)
Excel alone has it's own completely vertically integrated team who maintains their own compiler... doubt that there is much shared code between Excel and the other Office apps, let alone Windows 10.
Word makes it difficult sometimes to use it as a word processor. In particular, I find it's implementation of styles somewhat clunky and it is painful to create and manage tables, figures, and pictures. The fields also have odd behavior that hasn't been updated in decades. They keep bolting stuff on, but not fixing the underlying warts - presumably for compatibility. The result is several different "layers" on the document, with a combination of new and old objects that you can stick on various layers, each with their own advantages and disadvantages. There are several ways to do a text box, for instance, and each are edited through a completely separate workflow.
I need to use cruise control just to stay out of traffic court - I'm a lead foot if left to my own devices.
My strategy is to pass as quickly as possible to find the next "hole" in traffic to settle into. Sometimes that means my speed varies as I try to maintain my position in the hole and people who I passed end up passing me. I figure as long as I'm over in the right lane, it shouldn't really be a problem for people to play leapfrog a little bit. I feel much safer not jockeying around in the clusters.
This strategy works not even a little in moderate to heavy traffic, in which case I simply get in the left lane and go as fast as possible, which if I'm lucky is 5-10 over the speed limit.
I'm sorry if I'm being dense to a joke, but are you serious? They don't need to sample you personally to get a pretty good idea of what people's habits are. A few thousand ought to do it, and there are hundreds of millions of Americans. The chances of you being sampled are minuscule.
Oh, we can't be BFFs if you are not overtaking while in the passing lane. You are causing a lot of road rage and making our roads less safe when you do that.
I know I don't factor in connection cost, so it seems reasonable. I have internet independently of either Netflix or Cable. It's like comparing brands of toothpaste but then claiming that I didn't account for the water cost.
I'll admit that 7 is better than XP, but not by enough that I would have bothered to upgrade if they hadn't discontinued support. It makes me wonder if one of these Windows clone operating systems won't eventually get good enough that I won't bother running Windows proper at all. If there was an OS that was feature-compatible with, say, Windows 2000 and also supported modern hardware, why would we bother with this proprietary crap?
I'm not really commenting on Hillary's effectiveness or lack thereof - but if she's going to attack Trump for being unsuitable to run the nation's foreign policy, she probably should be careful about pointing out countries who, despite plenty of interaction with Hillary, would prefer to work with Trump.

I don't think you need to get very fancy... I would think a laser or extremely bright light bought from eBay would similarly blind a human "sensor".

Well, there's you problem...
Where's my consulting fee?
Surely he does not need to explain the concept of an analogy to you?
Damn, I just wallpapered our bedroom with OLEDs.
Granted, back then people died from other diseases before the cancer had a chance to get them, so...
Like lead poisoning from newsprint ink? :)
Ahh, letting dreams of an ideal world prevent you from making a pragmatic decision in the real world. Good luck!
My hat's off to you on wrestling Word into that workflow. You are a patient man/woman.

I don't think you know enough seniors.

Neilson samples enough people to be statistically relevant, plus they have data from your decoder/box.

As long as you stay in the slow-poke lane, we can be BFFs.
I think we're bogged down in semantics :) ReactOS targets Windows Server 2003.
Well, that's why I mentioned supporting modern hardware. Certainly 64 bit processors, USB3, etc. would be on that list.

It can also put out fires with slugs of depleted uranium.
The Be-42 is supposedly back in production as well.

I don't think they've got much to lose here.
The "loss" here is that her campaign is essentially claiming that Russia would rather deal with Trump than Hillary.
Yeah - they even recompress high-profile events like the Superbowl. The grass looks all swimmy and even on a good set.
