Encoding matrices as graphs is a cheat code, making complex behavior simple to study.

Let me show you how!

Common software dev mistakes are at the extremes:

1. Under-engineering
2. Over-engineering

Under-engineering:
No CI
No reviews
Weak types
Hard coding
Tight coupling
Manual deploys
Frequent copy/paste
Insufficient flexibility
No automated checks
No validation/error checks

A most surprising & little-known results in statistics is that the mean (μ) and median (m) are within a std deviation (σ)

|μ−m| ≤ σ

for unimodal densities bound is even tighter

|μ−m| ≤ 0.7756 σ

This beautiful results first appeared in a 1932 paper by Hotelling & Solomons
