I actually searched the web for popular functions to implement; I don't personally use all of them. If you have any other functions in mind, tell me to implement them also.

Thank you! Perhaps I should add the supported functions in README.md. There is a list in programme's help (F1) with a small summary from each one. I copy from there:

ABS, AND, AVERAGE, AVERAGEIF, COLUMN, COUNT, COUNTA, COUNTIF, COUNTIFS, DATE, DAY, DAYS, EXACT, EXP, FILTER, FIND, HLOOKUP, IF, IFERROR, IFNA, IFS, INDEX, INDIRECT, INT, IPMT, ISBLANK, ISERROR, ISNUMBER, ISTEXT, LEFT, LEN, LET, LN, LOWER, MATCH, MAX, MID, MOD, MONTH, NA, NOT, NOW, OFFSET, OR, PI, PMT, POWER, PPMT, PRODUCT, RIGHT, ROUND, ROUNDUP, ROW, ROWS, SQRT, SUBSTITUTE, SUBTOTAL, SUM, SUMIF, SUMIFS, SUMPRODUCT, TEXT, TEXTJOIN, TODAY, TRIM, TRUE/FALSE, UPPER, VALUE, VLOOKUP, WEEKDAY, XLOOKUP, YEAR,

Regarding the 2nd part of your question, I quote from the LLM: Complex scalar formulas with deep, cross-sheet, and indirect dependencies are fully evaluated with cycle safety; range/array inputs compose inside aggregations, but dynamic-array spilling is not implemented — multi-cell results surface as #VALUE! instead of spilling.

I got incredibly accurate output on my terminal emulator using a nerd font (st with Iosevka Nerd Font, tmux, links2 browser).

Out of curiosity I checked with lsof, apparently other fonts are used as fallback:

/usr/share/fonts/truetype/dejavu/DejaVuSans-Bold.ttf

/usr/share/fonts/truetype/droid/DroidSansFallbackFull.ttf

/usr/local/share/fonts/MS/segmdl2.ttf

/usr/local/share/fonts/MS/seguisym.ttf

/usr/local/share/fonts/nerd/Iosevka/IosevkaNerdFont-Regular.ttf

/usr/local/share/fonts/nerd/JetBrainsMono/JetBrainsMonoNerdFontMono-Regular.ttf

At least the result is perfect!

I was a sysadmin at a company using Notes/Domino (v 4.5 when I started, up until v 7, when it was replaced by Exchange/Outlook). It was mainly used for e-mail, plus some minor apps for HR.

I used Designer to improve a bit the UI of the e-mail app of Notes. In general I have positive thoughts for both Domino and Notes, as e-mail server & client. Nevertheless the majority of colleagues complained, mostly due to Notes being different from Outlook I think.

Yet, one day, a fellow colleague, a young beautiful woman (marketing, not an IT geek or something), came in IT office to announce us her resignation. Before leaving, she asked if it's possible to give her the Notes installer to install it on her PC at home. She disliked Outlook & Outlook express and really liked Notes :) (v5 at that time if I recall well). We were all stunned and of course gave her the installer and a guide on how to setup her yahoo or hotmail using pop3 or imap.

COBOL is dead? Not at all. Are new projects created in COBOL? Yes they do. If not in older COBOL form, definitely in SAP ABAP.

For those who haven't heard about it, ABAP (Advanced Business Application Programming) is the name of SAP’s proprietary, fourth-generation programming language :) It's SAP's main language. It's a direct descendant of COBOL, I'd describe it as a COBOL with OOP extensions.

Since SAP's ecosystem is sneaking everywhere, COBOL in its modern, very close incarnation (ABAP), gains new space!

If in any doubts, check some ABAP code. It's not simply influenced by COBOL, it's COBOL.

Since I didn't see it mentioned, my multiplatform (Java based) alternative to Paint.net is Pixelitor, https://pixelitor.sourceforge.io/ Something in between MS Paint - Paint.net I think.

I also use XPaint; it's quite capable but the interface is very different, too much deviated from usual GUI apps.

I confirm the issue of delays/freezing of Claws-mail. I really liked the simple UI, but freezing too often, couldn't stand it. I had searched about it, I got some answers that's it's single threaded if I recall well.

Since you mentioned mutt and it's steep learning curve, I recommend you another TUI MTA/mail app. It's nmail (https://github.com/d99kris/nmail). Simple, Pine/Alpine like interface, has great features (for example, saving mails in sqlite - can be viewed offline). Also the developer is active and friendly, in case you find bugs or have any proposals for enhancements.

I share the same feelings for Sun, mourned when it was bought by Oracle.

Thank you for the answer, I didn't know about these Capability URLs.

It's kind of security by obscurity I think. Still, if somehow somebody else gains access to a Capability URL, it cannot be considered an unlawful act. He could even claim that he was lucky enough to type a URL, which by coincidence gave him access to somebody else's personal data.

Forget the concept of booting. Boot transfers the kernel OS from disk to RAM. No such thing would be needed on a RAM memory only computer.

I think the article is very shortsighted. By 2035-40 we'll probably have memory only (RAM) computers massively available. No disks means no current OS capable of handling these computers. A change of paradigm needing new platforms and OSes.

These future OSes may be 128bit, but I don't think the current ones will make it to the transition.
