I am starting 2025 with a completely renewed blog based on Quarto. I have also updated all the previous posts. The first post addresses the issue of the lack of data normalization I observed in the Spanish National Atlas.

So obviously the conclusion was that the Y chromosome defined masculinity.

Chugging away at the Effective Visualizations book.
