Are you looking for a slick macOS and iOS note manager and at the same time do you want to donate something to the Ukrainian people?

Look no further than https://fsnot.es

You can support Oleksandr for as low as 2$ / month — stop anytime you want!

This heroic developer is living 12 hours from his home town — which has been devastated by the war — and he keeps on working on this amazing OPEN SOURCE app (so yes, it means you can use the app without paying or donating a single dollar!)

Go help him!

The real stages are denial, anger, bargaining, depression and acceptance.

Big news, seaborn 0.12 has been released.

The biggest change is the object API, inspired by the grammar of graphics.

But I can’t possibly be the only one bothered by one of their examples?

Especially the y0 and y1 feels super implicit and group=“Country”, col=None feels like coming out of an ancient book written on knowledge long forgotten.

Am I ruined by my years using matplotlib during my PhD?

so.Plot(healthexp, ×=“Year” ) .pair(y=[“Spending_USD”, “Life_Expectancy”]) . facet(col=“Country”, order=country order) •scale(x=so. Continuous(). tick(at=[1985, 2020])) . label(x="" y0= “Spending (USD)”, y1=“Life expectancy”) .add(so.Line(color="#ceced3" ), group=“Country”, col=None) .add(so.Line(linewidth=3), color=“Country”, legend=False)

Sometimes a great mentor teaches you skills useful beyond your daily job!

And so Pieter de Swart brings me on a 3h kayak trip on the Linge river, talking about all things from the military to diversity and inclusion in the workplace to work life balance!

What a great trip, thanks Pieter and Smart HRD!

The amount of process and ceremony required is inversely proportional to the trust level on the team."

— bob1029 in response to Lucas’ article

How much process and ceremony do you have at your company?

Who is actually surprised that a platform selling nothing* of value, now actually sells stuff for basically nothing?
