Hey I am on Medialย โ€ขย 8h

Excel just turned 40. On September 30, 1985, Microsoft shipped the first version of Excel. Not on Windows, but on a Mac. It wasnโ€™t the first spreadsheet. And it wonโ€™t be the last. But 40 years later, Excel is still the backbone of calculations, budgets, and planning in global business. And no, itโ€™s not because itโ€™s the best spreadsheet. Itโ€™s because it became the default. Plenty of alternatives have tried. Some are even better in specific ways. Yet Excel remains the standard. Turning your product into the industry standard is hard. But it's smart. And once you succeed, others build around your example.

"Just a GPT wrapper." "Just a VS Code clone." Yet they're worth billions. Same tools. Same time. But they shipped. You scrolled. Maybe itโ€™s time we stop spectating and start building. Cursor didnโ€™t wait. Why are you?

You didnโ€™t spend all day working. You spent all day winning. Your AI handled updates. Your system shipped progress. You just focused on what moves the needle. Suddenly you're like: This isnโ€™t work. Itโ€™s momentum. Thatโ€™s Codestam.
