Make sure you catch the issues with the data and presentation of the viz. First there's the basic "albums vs. tracks" equivalence, and then someone's reply post is here: http://freshspectrum.com/2010/06/04/critiquing-the-infograph...

I think the parent probably meant the "they think they have a problem" bias. Though, that's not why I use RescueTime - I just love data. (And by the way, would love to download the fine-grained CSV for all of my activity for all time)

"web site publishers are clearly betting on H.264 remaining free to use for freely distributed web video"... Yes, and MPEG LA might be perfectly content with a $5 million check from every browser maker every year.

This looks promising! This functionality (and also the other projects on type-inference, etc linked in the research section) is very much needed. I'll use it myself, to be sure - but better IDE-related Ruby code analysis will be a great he

The thing that caught my eye was the big "Graduate" (to Visual Studio) button right next to "Run". Color me jaded.

This article IS that book -- I just finished reading it. This article is ripped word-for-word from several sections of that book, with a little stitching together. It's an entertaining book, if a bit rambling.

Is this guy a nutcase? He reads kind of like a doom-and-gloom nutcase, but I am not an economist. Could one comment on his basic validity level?

Isn't "essential unobtrusive javascript" an oxymoron? Unobtrusive Javascript is by definition stuff where your site is still OK without it?

Six people expect to make negative income this year. Highest incomes are 110M, 98M, 68M, 25M, and 10M (watch out, that last guy took the survey 6 times with bad data). In the bell curve of "# of years in industry", there are spikes at 10, 1

Well, the author does mention "Or maybe you're just left with less time to go to work." in the 4th paragraph. The thing of interest to me, though, was the gender-based age difference in the inversion point of the money/sex correlation. I w
