> Anyone who has worked for more than 5 minutes in an enterprise more than 30 miles outside San Fransisco know that the vast majority of information in the enterprise is cataloged and transacted via Excel spreadsheets. And if you're lucky, these spreadsheets are accessible to more than one person at a time via platforms like SharePoint.

This is large.

Or shall I say x-large?

It basically excels and will essentially solve all German Enterprise IT issues:

PSA for a potential audience of ... maybe a handful of people: something I posted earlier today in the #duckdb discord under 'show-and-tell': if you wished you could get new `duckdb` binaries automagically via `apt`, a simple repo shows one way -- and got me versions 1.3.0 and one or two of the 1.2.* ones. Text of post in alt-text.

The SHELLFS community extension for #DuckDB is fun, especially since it works in VIEWs as well as normal queries.

So in the same DuckDB session, it'll re-read the `fast.log` through awk at each incantation referencing the VIEW.
