A learn-to-program blog written with journalists in mind
Five Haiku for the Data Hacking Newsroom
With thanks to Adam Marcus (@marcua)
1. Data hackers should be reporters sometimes
Data hackers should
Be reporters sometimes.
It’s very humbling.
2. Make friends with IT.
With IT make friends
Understand what they want
Get new laptop first
3 Reuse, workflow, provenance
Build general tools.
Know where your data comes from.
Hack your workflow now.
4. The Update Pipeline
You need a reason
To share. So do reporters.
So give them one, fool.
5. Do not guess. Count.
Do not guess; count it
And if you cannot count it
Say you are guessing.
