A lot of these are outright stolen from Edward O'Campo-Gooding's list of questions. I really like his list.

I'm having some trouble paring this down to a manageable list of questions -- I realistically want to know all of these things before starting to work at a company, but it's a lot to ask all at once. My current game plan is to pick 6 before an interview and ask those.

I'd love comments and suggestions about any of these.

I've found questions like "do you have smart people? Can I learn a lot at your company?" to be basically totally useless -- everybody will say "yeah, definitely!" and it's hard to learn anything from them. So I'm trying to make all of these questions pretty concrete -- if a team doesn't have an issue tracker, they don't have an issue tracker.

I'm also mostly not asking about principles, but the way things are -- not "do you think code review is important?", but "Does all code get reviewed?".

A line chart rendered to Canvas using d3-shape. Rendering the axes is a bit tedious, but that’s we need a d3-axis module.

From Wikipedia:

Epicyclic gearing or planetary gearing is a gear system consisting of one or more outer gears, or planet gears, revolving about a central, or sun gear. … Epicyclic gearing systems also incorporate the use of an outer ring gear or annulus, which meshes with the planet gears.

Use the menu in the top-left to change the frame of reference, fixing the specified gear in-place.

	A Whirlwind Tour of Combinatorial Games in Haskell
	==================================================

	Combinatorial games are an interesting class of games where two
	players take turns to make a move, changing the game from one position
	to another. In these games, both players have perfect information
	about the state of the game and there is no element of chance. In
	'normal play', the winner is declared when the other player is unable
	to move. A lot of famous strategy games can be analysed as
	combinatorial games: chess, go, tic-tac-toe.
