Dutch government decides to cut education and research budgets, but spends more on keeping a tax reduction on fossile fuel. Can anyone explain what vision is behind this?

Today I visited the Holocaust memorial in Berlin. At first it did not touch me, until I entered it and it slowly sucked me in. I think that is the essence. A society can slowly go down a horrific path.

De Kamer had het kabinet opgeroepen om de ANBI-status af te nemen, zodat de actiegroep niet meer zou kunnen profiteren van belastingvoordelen voor goede doelen.

At #Geofort museum they had a great example of two maps representing proportion of the population belong to minority groups in the Netherlands with different colour scales. Same data but the one with the pink to red scale seemed to have another message then the green to blue scale.
This excellent interactive tutorial on misleading data visualizations explores the idea of a "counter chart" — the graph you draw in response to refute a misleading claims
