I'm no historian, but I don't think any group that's ever starved millions of people and called them "all animals" has been remembered well.

I'll be traveling to the US on Saturday, and I'll be staying in SF until Monday... and I have absolutely no plans for those days.

Realistically I'll spend all of that time working on my BlinkOn talks though.

Back in Hamburg after my vacation and staying in the south for a bit. Here is an elven assassin I doodled during my vacation.

Attachments:

• Ballpoint pen drawing in black, gray and green of an elven woman, looking frontal at the viewer. She has a v-shaped fringe, a short fuzzy mohawk, shaved sides and long strands of hair at her pointy ears. She is wearing an overall with circuit board style patterns. Below her eyes, stripes are going along her cheekbones, as if an augmentation. She is holding a curved blade in front of her, while she is grinning slightly, as if she is about to strike. Behind her a decorative black rectangle with a cut off edge, some white circuit pattern and a green offset to the left, for contrast. (remote)

Imagine you had half a day to introduce a #Python #dataviz library to a novice in programming.

Would you use Matplotlib? Seaborn? Vega-Altair? Plotly? ...

If you were new to Python, which of these would be the most exciting to you and motivate further learning?

This month Mastodon gave me the most Bandcamp Friday sales out of any platform. I would like to think this is because the platform has a higher more brainy more arty and cultured user base than 4chan-lite 'X' and the other places, but in reality/addition it's because of certain lovely people here who shared my posts, and I appreciate that a lot. Bandcamp Friday has paid for my food shopping this week, that's pretty amazing, thank you.
