Global Warming Reminder

Nov 15, 2016 ChartITWorld

Not surprising. The earth temperature measured by NASA in September was the highest ever warmest month. http://data.giss.nasa.gov/gistemp/tabledata_v3/GLB.Ts.txt. This follows the same pattern as every month this year. The Paris climate agreement clearly recognized the wide impact of Global Warming, but with the recent results of the US Elections, this issue needs to be raised all the time.

I'm really hoping this won't happen. And it was definitely a complete poll miss. A dangerous one.

Last US presidential polls

Nov 7, 2016 ChartPoliticsUsa

Alright, the last 4 way presidential polls still put Clinton slightly ahead. Crossing the fingers the lead will hold.

I haven't checked the Mobile OS market share in a while. According to net market share Android has 68.5% and IOS has 25.8% in the last month. I'm curious how this will be affected with the whole Note 7 issue. But still it's impressive the growth compared with just 2 years ago.
