Maybe you're not their target audience? I think the New Yorker is geared toward people who like the process of reading and enjoy when the author paints a picture in their mind. If you just want the tl;dr version, then there's othe

hmm... I would describe it as something like a '2D histogram square-bin plot' a 'categorical plot' or perhaps a variant of a 'mosaic plot' using color density instead of area. http://www.math.yorku.c

A tip for new players: I had trouble understanding what to do in KSP when I first tried it out (a while ago when it was very very beta) until I watched a bunch of videos from Scott Manley: https://www.youtube.com/user/s

The video that made it all come together for me was this "Dance of the P-Values" video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5OL1RqHrZQ8 It does a great job of showing how the same experiment can yield vastly different

Great point. Indie games are good for helping you realize how much hard work goes into triple-A games and can really help you appreciate them again with fresh eyes (and totally more affordable on the hardware front! :-)
