I work in tech for public media and am it's almost disheartening to know what kind of resources other publications have. We have people spread across everything at once. Do you work for the technology department or for the editorial department?

I've been following the NYTimes tech development from a distance for almost 20 years. A couple of things I've picked up:

1) it helps to be the biggest

2) it helps to have rabid boosters with reputational stakes themselves, like Edward Tufte.

3) the tech group maintains the framework, but each section owns their own section layouts.

4) the tech group made a big splash ... eh, sometime between 2005 and 2009 if I recall, with a very early progressive framework. I wish I could recall the details, but it was spicy when it first landed, like "Wow, that's genius, and it looks so good."

Makes me think of Mike Bostock who created d3 for New York Times. Amazing stuff and definitely made me smarter to work my way through how it works.

And Rich Harris who developed Svelte while working there (and used by The New York times)
