Unlearning descriptive statistics
http://debrouwere.org/2017/02/01/unlearning-descriptive-statistics/

If you've ever used an arithmetic mean, a Pearson correlation or a standard deviation to describe a dataset, I'm writing this for you. Better numbers exist to summarize location, association and spread: numbers that are easier to interpret and that don't act up with wonky data and outliers.

If plastic replaces cash, much that is good will be lost | Aeon Essays
https://aeon.co/essays/if-plastic-replaces-cash-much-that-is-good-will-be-lost

I recently found myself facing a vending machine in a quiet corridor at the Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands. I was due to speak at a conference called ‘Reinvent Money’ but, suffering from jetlag and exhaustion, I was on a search for Coca-Cola.

AMD’s moment of Zen: Finally, an architecture that can compete | Ars Technica
https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2017/03/amds-moment-of-zen-finally-an-architecture-that-can-compete/

https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2017/jan/25/democracy-broken-distrusted-trump-brexit-political-system

802.eleventy what? A deep dive into why Wi-Fi kind of sucks | Ars Technica
https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2017/03/802-eleventy-what-a-deep-dive-into-why-wi-fi-kind-of-sucks/
