What Your Culture Really Says - Pretty Little State Machine
“’…the company is managed with no hierarchy.’ What your culture might actually be saying is… Management decisions are siloed at the very top layers of management, kept so close to the chest they appear not to exist at all.” Very good. (via @mala)

@danjwilson @tomtaylor Oh, also good, thanks. So many choices…
@nickludlam @tomtaylor Oh, interesting thanks!
@tomtaylor Yeah, but other graphing libraries are like hitting yourself with a really ugly stick until you die. At least I’ll have fun.
@FidoThe I imagine d3’s a bit like hallucinating: often wonderful, but most of the time completely confusing and a little scary.
Spent the afternoon drawing a simple bar chart with d3. I’m about half-way there if you ignore the fact it’s upside-down.
