I don't know why, but I was kind of surprised when I got to the end. I was expecting more... some sort of conclusion. Other than that, yeah, use the best tools available and especially if you are getting data in an async manner, a cell-based direct edit tool like Excel is great.

- catacombs 8y agoYou're not alone. The story the author is talking about -- https://www.nytimes.com/2018/09/10/style/miss-america-2019-pageant.html https://www.nytimes.com/2018/09/10/style/miss-america-2019-p... -- doesn't include much in terms of data analysis nor graphics to visualize it. The story was interesting but not one that is data-driven, like other Times pieces. The Insider essay was just hype: "Look at me! I'm a software engineer covering a beat! Go me!"
