Leaving The New York Times
- danso 12y agoJake is one of the most forward-thinkingc and creative of the technologists in the entire news industry...his essays on the potential and limitations of data and digital applications are must-reads for anyone; one of his best: Distrust Your Data https://source.opennews.org/en-US/learning/distrust-your-data/ https://source.opennews.org/en-US/learning/distrust-your-dat... This would be a huge loss for the future of journalism, if it wasn't equally balanced by a huge gain in forward-thinkingness that Jake will bring to the future of government transparency.
- onassar 12y agoWould love to read more about the inside of paper like this, from the perspective of the technologists.

Does the editorial process for interactive components match (in rigour) that of the written-side?
- rich_harris 12y agoHave a look at https://source.opennews.org https://source.opennews.org - it's basically the watercooler for 'news nerds' (general term for newsroom developers/javascript journalists/dataviz people and so on). Not updated that frequently but often worth a read
