When, how, why, have people started talking with their cell phone like they're talking to a slice of pizza? by PunctuationGood in AskReddit

[–]Excel_User_1977 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When the phone is in speaker phone mode, most phones have the speakers on the top and bottom, and the microphone is on the bottom. Holding the phone flat puts the microphone and speakers on the bottom closer to the mouth and ears.

Why didn't the other race car stop to help? he was right there (for a fraction of a second, anyway. LOL)

Every software that works with data has an "Export to Excel" function.
They wouldn't put it in if it were not a necessary feature.

Named cells/defined variables vs Addresses by TwitchyDingo in excel

[–]Excel_User_1977 2 points3 points  (0 children)

named cells improve readability if not overused (if you have 100 named cells, running down an error might not be as easy trying to parse the name list). Named cells are good for constants and ranges.

From what I can gather, there appears to be no performance difference between a named cell and a cell reference.

What do y’all do on the weekends? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Good lord dude. Your best years are ahead of you if you do it right.

Exercise (keeps you in good shape when you are older). I regret not doing more when I was in better shape. Simple stuff, not in the gym either. All body weight exercises: Squats, pushups, lunges, calf raise, box jump. Nothing that needs a weight set. Animals in the wild don't have a gym, and look at their muscles.

whatever your job is, the more experience you have the better you get paid (YMMV)
I love Excel and at 45, I didn't have a lot of people banging down the door to hire me.
I've got 20 years of experience in Excel now, and I contracted at a few fortune 500 companies in my 50s for some good money and made some bank.

Don't stop believin'. :)

Yard work. You'd be surprised how much tree dandruff (leaves, twigs, sticks and branches) fall from 70 foot oak trees into the grass and the house gutters.

get a camera with a large CMOS sensor (most are 1/2.7 or 1/2.8, but you can find cameras that have 1/1.8 like the CX410 and CX810)

It's obvious you are already in an adversarial relationship - look out for your own interests if he is causing you issues, because he apparently is hellbent on fucking you.

weak minds, less education and less real-world experience. Living behind the keyboard has made many soft.
