  • Excel enabled non-programmers to create basically any app as long as they are fine with a cell-based UI. Same with Access and CRUD apps. I know people love to dunk on M$ here, and for good reasons too, but these two programs are probably responsible for a decent chunk or PoC/v1 projects worldwide.

  • Loved how most of the episode is spent on the hype build up. Like when the scales are introduced it becomes pretty apparent that they are going to be used and that Aura won't like the results. But we really spend time on why Frieren hides her mana and why it won't ever occur for demons as a valid long-term strategy. And so by the time the scales come into play we are absolutely hyped for the result. Which is followed by immediate and complete dismissal. Frieren has no interest in demons besides killing them. Even when presented with someone pretty high in demon hierarchy, Frieren does not care for any information or giving any orders, besides killing them as soon as possible.

    Also that decapitation scene is just great.

  • A few years ago people were talking about convergence of phone/desktop, i.e. you plug your phone into a big screen and keyboard and it’s now your desktop computer.

    Mobile apps are shit for that. Sure, my phone is powerful enough to browse internet, play video and music but on desktop with mouse/kb it's just weird and funky. And I'm not even talking about any productivity software which is straight impossible.

  • In a way, Frieren's lack of gravitas is refreshing. Usually, when you have elves (which are not just isekai hot babes with long ears), they are at least a little bit haughty, and it makes sense, too: having lived for thousands of years, some acquired pride is to be expected. But Frieren, while undeniably long-lived, and it is reflected in her personality (by relation to time mainly), absolutely does not feel superior to humans. Celebrate her early wake-up by spoon-feeding her? Sure! Carry her like a sack of potatoes? Thank you very much.
