Seph Coster's thoughts on Technology, National Security, Government, and Geopolitics. Forays into Data Visualization. Wednesday, July 09, 2014. Over the past few weeks I've attended a number of DC Data Visualization Meetups. And also worked on my own to expand my knowledge of front-end frameworks that I've wanted to work with over the past year. A few things I've noticed coming back into the space:. MUCH progress has been made in the area of front-end JavaScript APIs for visualizing data.

Seph Coster's thoughts on Technology, National Security, Government, and Geopolitics. Leaflet Plugin for Multiple Parameters. Monday, January 19, 2015.

Long form Re-form

Since shortly after its launch, I've used Tumblr as my primary platform for getting longer-than-140-character messages out on the internet.

Seph Coster's thoughts on Technology, National Security, Government, and Geopolitics. Tuesday, July 15, 2014. It's difficult to explain extremely powerful things. Most times, the explanations you see are either "look - magic! Or ten layers of understanding deeper than what you believe is possible to understand. So, when you do see a great explanation, you remember it. Of MapBox was nice enough to give a talk on D3.js in 2013. At the DC JQuery Users Group. Library, I revisited the talk.

My Obligatory End of Year Music List. This year, instead of doing top 10’s or best of genre lists, I’m just making up some categories that nicely contain the winners in each of those categories. A bit recursive, but enjoyable regardless! Best Album to Make You Feel Like You’re 16 and Making Out. The xx - xx. Best Album to Ponder Quantum Mechanics To. Klaxons - Surfing The Void. Best New Band That is Probably Just One Person. Best Approximation of Boards of Canada. Solar Bears - She Was Coloured In.

Seph Coster's thoughts on Technology, National Security, Government, and Geopolitics. Python and Postgres Peculiarities Deploying Django on Heroku. Friday, May 16, 2014. I've been working with Python and Django lately, and have enjoyed learning both. With each step deeper, however, you start to appreciate the debugging practice, whether due to newbie mistakes or straight up platform configuration issues. I highly recommend this "Crash Course". Put on by Kenneth Love. Sudo find / -name "pg config" -print.
