As a non-expert in this field, I feel we have introduced more “stochasticity”. Before, We had to deal with some human error/ misunderstanding for most part but now we have to deal with power of condensed human expertise along with homogenized flaws.

This sort of reminded me of my visit to https://www.cameramuseum.ch/en/themuseum/mission/ Camera museum in Vevey, Switzerland.

It is not very big and was difficult for me to follow as I cannot read French. Even with those language barriers on my end, it was fun way to see how photographic media evolved.

Although not very small, HHKB is my workhorse.

While it is good to have plotnine for python but ggplot2 in R has this whole ecosystem of packages/extensions that augment the ggplot2 such as ggalluvial, ggrepel. More at this link https://exts.ggplot2.tidyverse.org/gallery/ This would make it really compelling to tip my toes in the Python world. Regardless, I am liking this "ggplotification" of python. All we need is more "tidification" of Python data frame world.

I find Swiss system to be very convenient. My recent visit to the country was smooth thanks to the SBB app. It works not just for rail but also for bus, trams, and ferry. I think even some cable cars are covered. Plus there it can provide discounts or free visits to selected museums.

One of my favorite product, it just works in the background. I do not need any more features than what it has currently. None of the competitors have this ability to just blend in the background. I hope they stay for a long time.

Nicely written and I thought D3.js was very verbose and time consuming. Makes me appreciate all the computational tooling we have today.

I wonder how Mojo ranks along with Julia. Mojo was discussed yesterday here. Mojo seems to be more python focused while Julia is very much focused on Scientific computation. I may be wrong.

@onethumb Is it possible that Flickr will be integrated into SmugMug eventually or it will remain as its own branch? I know it is difficult to say for sure but some direction for near future?

I think I like about Flickr is the add a note feature. Not sure if other platforms has any similar feature but I find it helpful for me to add note on part on the photo for future reference such as place or anything peculiar.

Looks intriguing. Brings plotting to Sql instead of “transforming” sql for plotting.
