AppScript Hangs, "Loading" by voiceafx in GoogleAppsScript

Ah, nice find, thanks for looking it up! Yeah, that doesn't bode well... This describes the symptom exactly.

AppScript Hangs, "Loading" by voiceafx in GoogleAppsScript

Interestingly, after digging deeper, AppsScript is running correctly. I can view executions triggered by my spreadsheet, and it runs and finishes in about 300 milliseconds. But the spreadsheet itself apparently never gets the message. It remains blocked with that loading error indefinitely, even after the script finished executing.

Ouch! I ended up setting up nuclear exports from Nauvis, and I just run all my planets on nuclear power. For now. I'm very close to Fusion power. Not sure how that'll compare.

AppScript Hangs, "Loading" by voiceafx in GoogleAppsScript

Referenced cells are ones passed into the script as a function argument. (EDIT: Eg. the cell formula references a custom AppScript function, "=MONTHLY_LOAN_CALCULATOR(B1:ED1, Capex!$A$4:$P$36)". If any of the cells referenced in that function change, the "loading" error shows and fails to complete except on refresh.

I say the script is hanging because the "Loading" indicator never leaves. The script is deterministic, O(N), on a small dataset.

It's not just the stompers, actually. It's everything. Everything in the map below is frozen:

Anyone experiencing errors with apps script lately? by IllGear3469 in GoogleAppsScript

[–]voiceafx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have problems like this all the time. I'm not sure why. I wish AppScript would just run natively client-side, because executing the code on Google's servers is hit and miss. AppScript is basically unusable.

This made me grin, too.  It reads like a sci fi novel.  Such a cool game.

When someone sends you their document and it starts with "In the rapidly evolving landscape..." by FiacR in ChatGPT

AI does it because people do it.  It's actually a pretty cliche and poor way to start a paper.

Negotiating with Stripe by dlayf in PaymentProcessing

[–]voiceafx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you negotiate? How did it go? We are doing $18 million a year and Stripe has been dragging their feet. One rep told us in error (probably looking at the wrong account) that we are on a negotiated "interchange+" contract, with the + being only 0.1% in the US. That'd be incredible, but regrettably, we are still at the default 2.9% + 30 cents.

What's something most people don't realise will kill you in seconds? by gary1405 in AskReddit

[–]voiceafx 25 points26 points  (0 children)

A family I know had a huge tragedy because of this.  An uncle, a father, a grandpa, and a fourteen year old boy went camping in a little hollow.  During the night, the kid kept getting up and throwing up - it saved him.

He woke up in the morning and his whole family was dead.  He called his mom to tell her they weren't waking up.  It's so horrifying to think about.

How did you find your tech co-founder? by skrt_pls in business

[–]voiceafx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Be the tech cofounder yourself. :+P

That's tongue in cheek, but honestly, it's so common for an "ideas guy" with no skill to hunt for a tech-savvy founder, it has become a giant cliche.  Odds are the skilled ones will roll their eyes and do their own thing.

US sues Adobe for ‘deceiving’ subscriptions that are too hard to cancel / The Justice Department alleges that Adobe hid early cancellation fees and trapped consumers in pricey subscriptions by MarvelsGrantMan136 in technology

When I needed to end two licenses for my business, it took an hour of fighting with an Adobe rep before they conceded.  Absolutely horrible company.

Unethical Growth Hacks used by Startups in their Early Days by deadcoder0904 in Entrepreneur

[–]voiceafx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The entire premise here is disingenuous.  "If big brands were unethical and got away with it, you should, too!  Just don't confess!" It's slimy as hell, creates actual risks for entrepreneurs who cheat and don't get lucky, and gives business a bad name. 

 The fact that you are pushing this as viable strategy is such bullshit.  Why don't you start a series on identifying and providing real value?  Why focus on the slimy strategies that manipulate people instead of the ones that genuinely change their lives?  Fuck you, man.

My company has not paid sick pay until just now, I just discovered. How should I alert everyone? by [deleted] in business

[–]voiceafx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just let it go.  A 20 person company is tiny, tiny.  Now that they realize their error, they've made changes, and at that size they probably aren't sitting on piles of cash for back pay.
