Desperately need a word for when you hate the subject of a data, but like the visual. My latest combines a comparison chart & cartogram to show which states allow prisons to charge "pay-to-stay" fees. #dataviz

👀 Dataviz folks, anyone using Svelte 5 yet? 😗📊

Curious how it feels for visualisation work:
🟢 Easier?
🟡 Harder?
🔵 Ready for production?

Also on the hunt for code starting points: drop links if you’ve got them! 💡

Signal boosting this 🧵. Whether you are a #dataviz professional or amateur, journalist or working in a corporate setting, it's all the same: don't ignore your responsibilities and ethics. Especially now.
Once again, the New York Times gives the dataviz community an opportunity to reflect on its purpose.

Can everything be quantified and turned into a chart?

Most important: what are the consequences of a chart?

If words matter, charts matter too.
Of course the NYT sees the "DEI" stuff positively & is neutral on anti-trans discrimination

Re-reading this article from 2017 (medium.com/visualizing-...), I wonder — where are we at 8 years on?

I started being serious about data visualization around 2005, when the field was still pretty niche and people like Martin Wattenberg, Ben…

#Dataviz pros, I’d love your insights! 💡 Speaking to a corporate audience (incl. graphic designers) about the value of a data viz professional 📊 vs. a graphic designer 🎨.
How do you explain what sets us apart while showing how we complement each other? Keen to hear your take! #DataVisualization

I'm looking for examples of #dataviz presented in a video format. Long, short, with voiceover or a presenter: anything that doesnt require interaction, just to watch. Got any favourites to share? 🙌 #DataVisualization #VisualStorytelling #DataVizInspiration

I want to remind everyone that your local library is both physical AND digital.

You hate streaming everything because the price is ridiculous? Library.

You hate ads because they're every 3 mins or less? Library.

You want to reduce your digital footprint? Library.

You want sourced info? Library.

Recently found this beautifully animated vid in @pbump.com's 'How to read this chart' newsletter.
Reminded me how dataviz goes beyond classic charts: it's about visualising info to understand how things work. Couldn't stop watching, even with my tiny attention span. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fpao...

Hey #datafam!
This Christmas, why not treat yourself (or someone else) to something to a paid membership to the Data Visualization Society? One of the best decisions I made.

So far in the keynote we have “the state of Florida is run by alligators” and “not everything in this talk will be true”. Awesome start on Evil Dataviz from Eli Holder in collaboration with Gabrielle Merite at #outlier2024 📊

#Outlier2024 off to a cracking start as @elibryan outlines how charts are modified to be evil. Also, how Florida is run by alligators, how racism is an American tradition, and how not everything in his talk is true. Be ABSURD (or not).
