- The Design Philosophy of Great Tables posit-dev.github.io
Tables—like plots—are crucial as a last step toward presenting information. There is surprising sophistication and nuance in designing effective tables. Over the past 5,000 years, they’ve evolved from simple grids to highly structured displays of data. Although we argue that the mid-1900s served as a high point, the popularization and wider accessibility of computing seemingly brought us back to the simple, ancient times.
- Python is two languages now, and that's actually great threeofwands.com
I am of the belief that currently, Python is actually two very similar programming languages sharing the same name. This certainly isn't a surprise to anyone who's been using Python for a while.

The languages, let's call them untyped Python and typed Python, even though sharing a very large common base are fundamentally different in how they enable the developers using them to solve problems.

- Frictionless Web Development with Flask randykarels.com
<blockquote>For a while I've been looking for a more fluid toolkit for rapidly developing and iterating static sites. I have three use cases in mind: client html mockups with rapid iterations or slight variations, maintaining the static client sites that I have in the stable, and hacking on my own site. In each of these cases, dealing with databases, CMSs, versioning, or directories of HTML files was either too heavy, too slow, or both. </blockquote>
