Don't know a damn thing about visualization or how to use d3.js but I have a shitload of respect for Bostock's work on it, and his role in using it at the NYT.

Don't know a damn thing about visualization or how to use d3.js but I have a shitload of respect for Bostock's work on it, and his role in using it at the NYT. Love this window into his thought process. I'm also happy to see someone as accomplished as him say that randos on the internet are also capable of hurting his feelings. It makes me feel substantially less alone in that regard.
