Hmm. Well, I guess they are not using the Qt Widgets TableView then.
Perhaps I’ll take a look too, next time I feel like.

Oof that’s a lot of reports. And even a survey

It took me seeing it free a mosquito from its web…

I thought a ‘+’ sign was doubly symmetric.

Maybe their god wanted some peace and quite and thought that if they were to annihilate each other, that might lead to fulfilling the requirement.

Hehe, that was an unintentional Nokia reference on my side.

I don’t really remember enough about Excel anymore, but considering that I don’t remember having that problem despite how many years I used it, I guess that is the case with it.

And yes, a toggle would be nice. In fact, a few months ago, I was thinking of putting up a request over to the LibreOffice team, when I was working on the table view of another OSS project, but then procrastinated until I forgot. Honestly, if there are enough people that have a problem with this little thingy, it’d be better off fixed. Specially in the Qt implementation at least, it really is just a boolean toggle even for the developer.

Would you like to put up a bug report to them?

I did the same for a while.
But then I recently found out a spider (which was getting pretty big) ignoring bloodless mosquitoes and letting them fill up on me before eating them. I cleaned it up.

Well guess what?

#include <string.h>
#include <iostream>

int main (int argc, char *argv[])
{
	const int which = strcmp ("zsh", "bash");
	std::cout << which << std::endl;
	return 0;
}

Output

If GIMP weren’t free, at this point, I would be making another drawing software.
Ok, maybe not. I’m more into vector style stuff and that’s probably the direction I’d go in.

Now just how did he procure the rest of the 5, is a mystery.

You seem the one bothered

He’ll make sure until death that his wife doesn’t figure that out.

I can use CAD. I am an engineer.
But noone will ask me to draft a building design on AutoCAD, same as noone will ask me to do so with pencil and paper.
Because I don’t know buildings.

Sure, I might be asked to copy a pen-paper drawing onto CAD, but a Civil Engineer with CAD will do that better and a photo tracing software might do it as well as me.

So while a good enough LLM might code as well as a coder, Programming is more than just coding and making anything new, requires programming.

So I guess AI and hence, vibe coders are having the same problems as normal programmers.

where I, an average user, needs so long to find such a basic function

I am not sure about that.
The default UI is similar to the old MS Office Word and the new alternative (which from what I remember, LibreOffice actually asks you to choose from in a dialogue on first start, so you don’t need to look through menus to set your preference) uses the newer tabbed paradigm.

And while I do prefer the new one, I didn’t find the old one any harder than MS Office Word 2003 or the older version that came around Win 98.

The only thing that made me different from the average user back then, was that I actually read and understood user prompts before clicking “Next” or whatever.

<15 seconds.
Including starting LibreOffice Writer. This is on a 5400RPM HDD and Writer was definitely not cached, since I haven’t opened it in days.

Now how long did it take to start MS Word on my laptop again?

It is so for anything having tables, from what I see.
Dev has to consider whether snapping is a better idea or smooth scrolling is and toolkits seem to have snapping as the default.

Hehe yeah, security in general has been an afterthought in the computing space.
And it makes sense. You first make something possible, then restrict it for whatever cases you don’t want it happening. The latter is supposed to be easier.

But not a ToDo list right?
Unless you consider computer instructions as ToDo items, in which case, all executables would be ToDo lists.
