“Less rich” - probably about as rich as every FAANG employee reading this. Definitely a different tier than OP’s “rich don’t go to jail” communicated imo.

That “buy me a coffee banner” is so annoying on mobile. Awful to just keep it there nonstop.

“ I am still dating and am at a point in my life where this is very important. At a cis male what is the scene like?” Not bad but wayyyyy better in NYC.

Enlightenment from an acid trip. This guy just reminds me of my friends who took too many psychedelics and didn’t mature out of the stage in life they were in when they took them. We have a word for this: fried.

“I doubt that even happened lol.” Says man who, earlier in the same thread on weed-induced arrogance, writes, “my experience is the opposite.“

As this topic becomes more and more mainstream, I look forward to the numerous Twitter posts sure to come from Airbnb employees about the taxing social implications that come with working at Airbnb, how it weighs on their conscious, and and

“How would you even make [super specific plot]?” Ask on stack overflow, but a 10 second google shows that geom_quiver is a thing. From my view, the bigger distinction confounding your point is that most people doing non-dataframe oriented e

I’ve used both, have written dataviz libraries so know less than zero, and have never seen this distinction made nor agree with it. I wouldn’t even consider the two to have different purposes. Let alone “drastically” different. Drastically

This may be the most uninformed comment I’ve ever read in this site. Ever. Just completely clueless as to how things are/operate regarding healthcare in the real world.

Amelia is an awesome person and continues to post awesome, useful content. I always trip up on height/width being a % of the parent, and just default to using vh instead.

This wasn’t very in-depth at all if I’m being honest. I recently used KaTeX for server-side equation rendering with node. I think people tend to just use mathjax because it’s the more popular solution for web-based equations, but after spen

“Died of lockdown” - choice word “of” and not “during”, completely ignoring the myriad confounding variables going on during this one year period (eg social media changes). Regarding the lockdown comment, again I’ll write that things don

Things wrong (maybe not exhaustive): - x-axis ordered right-to-left - inconsistent scale in x-axis - y-axis values that “tell the story “ are all within the margin of error (ie is there even a story?) - y-axis doesn’t start at 0.0 - brick w

I like your YouTube videos in general and think this content is a great benefit to the community. I wouldn’t take the few negative comments personally - I’ve seen many GAN architectures that heavily overfit (including my own bobross pix2pix

Hey I’m not sure what you mean. E.g. “ It could have lived in d3js itself.” doesn’t make sense. Documentation does exist on GitHub. Everything in observable is bonus.

It redirects to live d3 examples. Free documentation that you can interact with. That’s like saying someone redirecting documentation to codepen is “redirecting to another project.” “At minimum” - your entitlement is truly ridiculous. There
