Visualizations like this are always awesome, but it would also be interesting to see the inverse of this chart.

Where do countries import arms from?

When you hover over a chord you can see both exports and imports for each pair of countries. The arms imports visualization is here: http://insightfulinteraction.com/armsimport.html

Hovering over a country shows where they import arms from.

I love the effort, it is absolutely worth praise. That being said, this is one of the last things I expected to show up on the internet.

Does that mean that the internet is now nearly complete?

What is more interesting is that I can see anyone who has had their accounts breached.

I now know that I can collect one of my friend's cell number from the snapchat breach or that an other famous person had his info leaked by Gawker.

Is it possible to include him on some sort of design / architecture meeting with your team? That might give him enough to think about and learn from while keeping him engaged.

That's a really great idea. I think I will try to schedule a lot of meetings that day.

27 would be correct if each side were independent random variables rather than the cube of a random variable. The way the problem is set up you are suppose to solve for E[a^3] (the third moment of the random variable) rather than (E[a])^3.

It is important to note the sample set of the survey: "The researchers surveyed 655 students entering Berea College, a private liberal arts college located in Kentucky, in the falls of 2000 and 2001."

I have a feeling that the results of the survey would be different at a public university with strong science and engineering programs.

My personal experience has been that many people will change their intended degrees, but rarely have I seen someone completely withdraw from science or engineering programs

Agreed. A few hundred kids at one atypical college does not a full pattern make.

Also, does it bug nobody else that this "news" is from research done a dozen years ago?

Yeah, this study is a joke-- Berea is really atypical, I've visited. The town is charming with a serious mountain artistic vibe. The school has a religious mission and outreach to non-traditional students in Appalachia.

I can understand google trying to protect their revenue source, but actions like this undermine the openness of the platforms that they are trying to promote.

Open and free platforms need to allow people to say no.

This is a very cool use of html as a medium to tell a story and keep the player involved. Defiantly want to see more games in a similar style!

It was really only a matter of time before this happened, regulation of trade (and the taxation thereof) is one of the main tasks of a government.

Pretty cool project, but I feel kind of dirty having js and html being so tightly bound to each other. Do you have a specific use case where pithy would perform faster or be more cleanly implemented than standard templates?

From the OP's documentation, I don't think it's intended to be used for large templates where speed of render is important. It's main benefit seems to be as a more readable, less-error-prone alternative to string concatenation, such as in small snippets that are created by client-side-update methods.

I work on an enterprise platform where I have client side access, but no server side access. My only options for injecting HTML are:

1) cross domain AJAX via CORS

2) Injecting HTML strings constructed in JS

For small amounts of HTML, I'd much rather go with option #2.
