  I’ll be there!

  Have been thinking about organizing a meetup myself but always doubted whether Shanghai had enough aspiring rationalists :)

  on: Spread­sheet-based tool for track­ing time

  Thank you for sharing this cleverly designed worksheet.

  Have been playing with it for a couple of days now and am integrating it into my existing tracking sheet (where bodyweight and personal finances are among the other variables being tracked).

  I have made a small modification to enable faster date- and time entry with keyboard shortcuts. Save the spreadsheet as a macro-enabled workbook, then open the VBA editor with alt+f11. Hit ‘insert’; ‘module’; paste the code below and save. You can now enter the current date using ctrl+d and the current time with ctrl+t.

  Sub ins_date() ′ ′ insdate Macro ′ ′ Keyboard Shortcut: Ctrl+d ′ ActiveCell.FormulaR1C1 = “=TODAY()” ActiveCell.Select Selection.Copy Selection.PasteSpecial Paste:=xlPasteValues, Operation:=xlNone, SkipBlanks :=False, Transpose:=False Application.CutCopyMode = False

  End Sub Sub ins_time() ′ ′ ins_time Macro ′ ′ Keyboard Shortcut: Ctrl+t ′ ActiveCell.Value = Time

  End Sub

  Absolutely. Especially when reading the discussion section in an RSS reader the sheer amount of spam is depressing.

  A quick and dirty solution would be to block the IP-range of the ‘Pandora’ user accounts.
