While thinking about layout/grids I've been looking at SSENSE's editorial stuff. The use of indents/different fonts is really interesting.

Always enjoy going to @jxnblk's site to look something up and finding out how he's restyled the front-page. Looking default-minimal-styles good right now.

I made a GIF of running UMAP on the digits dataset, adding one digit into the dataset and retraining each frame. This was probably a weird thing to do but it is helping me to develop more of an intuition of what it's preserving (nearest neighbors) and what is not informative (overall positioning/scale).


After a lot of python problems I've got the umap tutorial running in a Jupyter notebook (my first Jupyter notebook).
