Comment Re:Access sucks (Score 1) 65

The real reason office users use Excel for this is because Access is complete dog shit.

It's not complete dog shit. But you have to understand relational databases to use it properly, and most Access users coming from Excel do not, and end up making even bigger messes than they would have with Excel.

Anyone with reasonable knowledge of SQL and VBA, and enough common sense to design a UI properly, can do quite nicely with Access (within its admittedly dogshit limitations, mostly having to do with the fact that it's a Microsoft product and intimately connected to the horrendous Office ecosystem). And it can be easily hooked up to a real database backend if the native database size limitations are outgrown.

Comment Re:What is this TV of which you speak? (Score 1) 125

The only thing I watch on broadcast TV is Star Trek TOS while I'm eating dinner. Oh, and the Twilight Zone marathon they have every Fourth of July. I may have watched something else when I was sick once, like maybe Green Acres or Gomer Pyle, but I don't remember. I was feverish.

Do you want your doctor to take extra time considering your illness, or make an instant snap decision? Would you prefer to accept an AI's diagnosis or would you rather have a human do it?

I would like my doctor to spend as much time as needed considering my illness, and to use all the tools at his disposal when doing so -- including AI, if appropriate.
