Imagine (no need to imagine, it's true), russian children wear military uniforms and undergo military training in schools and kindergartens. No need to lie like russians do every day; it would be easy to say "we hit a military target."

I proposed the trolley problem to ChatGPT: a cockroach vs. Putin. It chose to kill Putin and explained why. Smart enough. The Turing test passed.

Magic of the new Power BI Button Slicer: the current calendar month is always selected by default.

In the video, I change the system date, refresh the report, and the slicer selection updates automatically to reflect the new current month.

This is how you create a (white) hole in a map. I think it looks like a bar chart that starts from a non-zero value.

#dataviz Just use different shades of the same hue or transparency. There is no logic in using random colors for time dimension.

February, or "Luty" in Polish. "Luty" means "fierce," referring to the winter cold.

No, those are not °F; they are °C.

How to make a better tooltip in Deneb?
Format pane - Properties - Tooltips - OFF

That's it. Forget "tooltip" property as well. Create your own tooltip using Vega marks and events

It can be round, transparent, it can follow the cursor or be docked on the side of the visual

A diamond in my collection of Vega Deneb Power BI templates for @data.ft.com Visual Vocabulary chart types.

This is only one chart that I thought would be impossible to implement in Vega, until I realized that it's possible to generate SVG paths using Vega expressions.

My 9 y.o. daughter is learning some basic programming. Together we're converting a tactical shooter into a farm game. A player (civilian game unit) has to walk around (with map, compass, binoculars) and look for (randomly placed) cows. 🧵

How many colors do we need for a good data visualization?
I recommend seeking an answer in the following books:

SVG experiments in Power BI Matrix visual.

Map with highlighted areas. Value based highlighting of the area (fill-opacity).

Multiple lines strings with color highlighted substring and with superscripted characters.
