Design and Analytics makes broken things work, puzzling things intelligible, slow things fast, and ugly things beautiful---with applications in time series finance, geographic information systems, and social network analysis.

I encountered a strange bug while using Google Drive today--it suggested auto-correcting "a lot" to "alot." No google, I did not mean "alot." I never mean alot, and neither should you.
Can someone fix this immediately?! I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes---google wants you to type like a texting teenager, #kthanksomglol.

Just some quick news: I've recently taken a job as a Data Scientist at a future-of-education startup in New York. This means Design & Analytics is no longer taking new paid clients, but I will keep posting to the site blog on techy things related to design, data visualization, R, networks, and amateur cartography. Also, still feel welcome to shoot me an email if you have any questions about anything I've posted.
