Pretty wild: 38 million people's income on a single chart (2 decades' data!!) Check it out: jaanli.github.io/american-commu… Thank you @recifs and @mbostock for the tips on asynchronous JavaScript!! This new @observablehq framework + @duckdb enables really, really cool new applications.

Today we’re launching a bold new vision: an open-source static site generator — Observable Framework — for creating fast, beautiful data apps you can host anywhere. Use JavaScript for interactive graphics with Python, R, or any language for data analysis. observablehq.com

Late last night the number of downloaded copies of my books went past 100,000. Nice milestone for the end of the year. All available for free from @leanpub - leanpub.com/u/d3noob

Remember bl.ocks.org? I made a little search engine on @observablehq with almost 38K blocks collected by @enjalot.

📣Last chance to apply for our two roles in #dataviz! We're reviewing applications and will begin interviews shortly. Apply by the end of this week to be considered: 📐 Lead Information Designer: infogr8.com/lead-informati… 💻 Creative Technologist: infogr8.com/creative-techn…

I am really grateful to be working with @currankelleher and @enjalot in our new studio: room302.studio - sometimes you run into collaborators who make building a joy and that you know you have to work with them again... and now I do!
