@mathlover Spreadsheets were the first big success story of the nascent software industry, way back in the late 1970's.

Visicalc was the first one, and made lots of money. Later a new upstart came in, and also was very successful -- Lotus 1-2-3.

Sometime down the road, Quatro Pro joined the fray, and seems to have been named in pure jest to Lotus's very successful program.

Excel came many years later, and it was a Windows application from the very beginning I think.

My first spreadsheets were in Lotus 123, and it was quite interesting. 😋

If you use Youtube, or Invidious often on desktop then I'd definitely recommend FreeTube (https://freetubeapp.io/) as an alternative client. Using invidious or a local API as an implementation it doesn't connect to Google APIs, so less risk of corporate data mining!

Spent some time today working on the toast feature for the Vue rewrite (https://github.com/FreeTubeApp/FreeTube-Vue). The current client is pretty great but the new version is shaping up to be better visually and functionally from the ground up.

Having decided, for a laugh, to infiltrate Glinner's shit fedi, I am happy to confirm the timeline is being inundated with trans furry anime pornography, and people demanding that all terfs fuck off immediately.

Good ideas for why & how to share plane tilings to K-6 #math students.

According to an investigation by earthsight, #IKEA is buying illegal wood supplies from Ukrainian mountains. The interesting part is that this wood is certified as sustainable by FSC and IKEA promotes it as eco-friendly.
Sadly, #FSC is not that trustworthy after all.

"The Web We Have to Save
The rich, diverse, free web that I loved — and spent years in an Iranian jail for — is dying.

Why is nobody stopping it?"
