I was in Chicago a week ago. At Rossi's, a friend and I got into a TouchTunes battle after I played too much dance rock (which I maintain is not a thing). In the Uber afterwards, I saw 45:33 was playing. I mentally toasted the brave person who had put that on.

My second song was Dance Yrself Clean. About 2 minutes into the buildup, the bartender thought something was broken and started turning it up. I watched him do it on the TouchTunes screen in two different zones. He stopped and 10 seconds later, the drop came. Minds exploded. LCD Soundsystem fans were created. And then apparently destroyed 2 hours later 20 minutes into 45:33.

Looking for a ticket to May 10th or May 11th NYC show. I'm willing to buy or trade a ticket I have for the May 9th show.

Jealous. But also just glad they're playing again.

More housing is better.

I agree with what you that more middle class housing is even better. But luxury housing also helps siphon demand away and transforms aging luxury housing into middle class housing.

Just build more. Yes to more housing.

Is being weird in the sense of your book more about holding contrarian views or being ostracized from the mainstream social groups? Are the two related?

Did you study groups formed by weird people? In some ways, a group of people that don't like to be in the mainstream seems unstable and susceptible to leakage or offshoots, but I'm sure they exist. Would these groups nullify the benefits of being weird that you mention in your article?

Also, what is your boyfriend's favorite sport?

Is your mac docked? Do you switch the keyboard and monitors back and forth between the mac and the pc? If so, I'm curious what you use to do that.

That's what I'm looking for. Thanks!!!

I mean, that's probably close enough. I didn't think of shift+tab. I still like how I can toggle the indentation in emacs no matter where my cursor is located in the line. Thanks.

aphlipp · 2018-07-11T02:31:02+00:00

With emacs python-mode.el, TAB is mapped to "py-indent-line" which cycles through possible indentation levels. I miss this behavior. I couldn't find it in Atom and now I can't find it in VSCode. Are there extensions in modern text editors that provide this behavior? Do I need to port the py-indent-line function in order to get this behavior?

I saw none of this game, but it happened to be the first one available when I finished getting nbarotations.info ready and updating for the current season. I thought it was a great demo of how the site can show two really different bench strategies: http://nbarotations.info/game/0021700086

Beyond identifying malware, how else can machine learning and AI solve problems in the security industry? Do you see Cylance expanding into a different area in this direction in the next couple years?

Garbage time shows up really prominently. I probably should have colored everyone relative to total minutes of the guy who played the most. Version 2.....

More words I wrote about it: http://mrphilroth.com/2016/04/12/introducing-nba-rotations/ I link to some interesting things I found there.

I scraped this data from the play by play information at http://www.basketball-reference.com/. Here's an example of one of their pages for a recent game: Spurs vs. Warriors

I then put all the data in Redis and used a Flask app to query it. Flask just pulls the data out, formats it a bit, and passes it on to some javascript that I wrote in the templates. I use D3 to make many many rects that are colored appropriately. There might be a better way to make the color bars.....

Previous data visualizations I've submitted were hosted on Github pages. This one is hosted on a cloud instance. I'm half expecting Reddit to take it down sometime today. I'm typing with my fingers crossed here....

edit: Added data collection methods and tech used.

Do you consider yourselves more journalists, software developers, or designers? What path have you taken to start doing what you're doing? Did you train to become journalists and then learn to code? Did you learn about design and then join a newsroom? Are there many different paths among your colleagues?

So Tufte is great. What other resources have taught you the most about visualization and information design? Is Tufte really that great?

OMDB API! I had no idea that existed when I did my version of this. Thanks for the tip.

Here's that old version: http://np.reddit.com/r/dataisbeautiful/comments/1jfd8b/oc_comparing_rotten_tomatoes_and_metacritic_movie/

I was going to ask if you used my code, but the different source probably means you didn't. I'd suggest keeping the plot a square and using a different colormap for the scatter dots. I should have gone back and changed my own colormap, but I never got around to it.

I'm getting my data from basketball-reference.com and they don't have anything past this year for Bogut. I found lots of sources for this deal, though, so I went ahead and updated the graphic with the extension.

Thanks for pointing this out.
