    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…

    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 lin…

    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 e…

    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 …

    @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 n…

    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 …

    Will this ever integrate rest of the ggplot2 dependent packages described here: https://exts.ggplot2.tidyverse.org/gallery/ in the near or distant future? Sorry if it already menti…

    I don't hear much about Ibis here. https://ibis-project.org On paper it sounds like a good idea. Any opinion about this option.
