Yet I can't drag and drop a plain old HTML file without putting it in a folder or a ZIP file first.

Or you could just warehouse the daily data into something like ClickHouse and start fresh every day. It's built for this kind of workload and has demonstrated some absolutely insane analytical performance at massive scale. We're currently running it on an $170/month VPS, querying over 500+ billion rows daily without any issues. At that point, partitioning an ever-growing OLTP table starts looking like the harder problem.

I started a sheet metal and sign manufacturing company because I loved building things. I was obsessed with engineering, solving complex fabrication problems, and making every product as close to perfect as possible. I stayed deeply involved in the shop (from R&D to day-to-day production) and we were fortunate to have more than enough work to keep us busy. At the time, it felt like exactly what I wanted.

Five years later, I realized I'd made a mistake. I had built a business that depended on me instead of a business that could grow without me. The work I once loved had turned into routine, and I had spent so much time perfecting the craft that I neglected to build the company itself. That experience taught me that entrepreneurship isn't just about creating a great product - it's about creating systems, empowering people, and working on the business, not just in it.

I like this. However, I just gave your Sheets a simple stress test by selecting a bunch of cells, then using the fill handle to populate other cells, and afterward doing an undo (Ctrl+Z). It completely crapped out and did not do what I expected...which was to return to its original state prior to using the fill handle, with the selection still selected.

But why not film everything like skydivers do in 8K 120fps from every angle and live stream it? After all, it is 2026...and near-Earth missions like the Moon can now support hundreds of Mbps (even approaching Gbps with laser communication). In the age of live streaming, wasn't this taken into account? All we got is a choppy 480p video feed, if that.

Trying it out to sell consulting services, but I'm unable to create a product with the type set to "Service". The platform only allows physical or digital products to be created. Although I have selected "Services" under "Goods Type", the option still isn't available.
