A Tale of 3 Bots: Towards a Blog Post
I racked my brain trying to rustle up a list of bots I've had a good time interacting with. I'm sure there are multitudes, but most have been forgettable. I could only think of three, and for a moment I felt as if I was settling. Turns out, they were just the best bots I've met.
A little over a year into earnestly working on teaching myself to code, Exercism has quickly the most valuable tool in my autodidact toolkit. Finally, I've gained the healthy addiction to programming that it takes to really continue leveling-up and building valuable technical skills.
Exercism is a command-line utility and online code repository for a wide selection of "toy problems" in a host of popular, up-and-coming, and obscure programming languages.

Data visualization is still a very young field. Many of its more recognizable expressions such as the bar chart and the scatter plot are quite settled in terms of best practices. The case for their usefulness has been made by their adoption as standards. However, dispute over some standards continues. One of the most hotly debated visualizations remains remains the pie chart.
An individual pie chart displays the proportional relationships among n parts of a whole, and each part's relationship to that whole. Its highly simplistic structure makes it very easy to understand. Common criticisms of the pie chart include humans' supposed lack of skill in discerning angular variation –more on that later–, the univariate information provided by the chart, and the rapid degradation of readability that occurs as n increases.
