Replacing Observer-Observable (inheritance vs. composition)

Since Java 9 the pair Observer-Observable have been declared deprecated.

They don't provide a rich enough event model for applications. 
For example, they support only the notion that something has changed, 
but they don't convey any information about what has changed. 
There are also some thread-safety and sequencing issues that cannot be fixed compatibly.

Java idioms for exposing properties

In several application where a general purpose container needs to access specific objects, properties represent a common technique.

We can loosely define a property as an attribute of an object that can be accessed programmatically based on run-time only information.

Where we donate vs. Diseases that kill us - Slopegraph

This gist reports a redesign of the graph shown in the August 20, 2014 article by Vox.

The original diagram uses two paired bubble charts with categorical levels encoded in colors.

The re-design presented here makes use of a slopegraph.

Where we donate vs. Diseases that kill us - Paired Barchart

This gist reports a redesign of the graph shown in the August 20, 2014 article by Vox.

The original diagram uses two paired bubble charts with categorical levels encoded in colors.

The re-design presented here makes use of two paired opposed bar charts.
