You must be hella fun at parties.

Edit: my bad, they don’t get invited to parties

Tea

So much this. If you find yourself writing nested formulas e.g.

=IF(A1>=90, "A", IF(A1>=80, "B", IF(A1>=70, "C", "F")))

Do yourself a favour and switch to Python and Pandas. You can do so much more, so much faster, and so much simpler. And at the end of an your code, you can pd.to_excel() to spit out your dataframe as an xlsx.

Have you tried tweaking user.js?

It’s algorithmic, targeted advertising that’s the real problem.

IMO, the same advert should be shown to all users (at least per country) so that targeting political bullshitting / “advertising” can be knocked on the head, as well as the adverts logged in a public system so they can be reviewed and the funder identified.

It’s more likely because cheat codes were development / QA tools to make testing the game easier. They got left in because they were behind hidden, strange button sequences etc, removing the code risked breaking something that would be harder to test without the codes, and they can be fun.

With better development tools, debuggers/profilers, and easier ways to distribute builds, they stopped being left in the game. And with the gamification from achievements/trophies, cheats would devalue/trivialise unlocking achievements etc and break their purpose.

That’s PaRappa The Rapper (same developers though).
