Isn't that still fantasy? Unless there's some sort of scenario where people are uploaded into a virtual world where they get trapped in the form of a talking train. Forever. Now that's dark.

Fantasy. Or maybe just surreal and experimental. Not SF anyway.

We use Arial corporately. I try not to go below 10pt. As Jeff said, the bigger issue is probably lack of control of data labels and the like. Very conscious of horrible label overlaps. So frustrating.

Also, it's a waste of space to start the y axis at zero, when you could start it at 45?

Oh, and it really needs a picture of some coins behind the chart. And really, technically, you only need two bar colours, black and white. The legend will make clear which column is which. I guess as well if you could format it with thinner bars, so it fits on a mobile screen. Like, really thin.

I mean, obviously 3DP on the Y Axis would be better. And ideally, to be fair to all countries, you should measure each country in the currency unit of that country, and show the currency on the bar.

I like that you thought about what the data means, as well as just how to display it.

I mean, wind direction *is* data. But yes, in education we do map home address to school as vectors. And during Covid, I did some work on transmission patterns as vectors-really interesting seeing how social networks control spread hyperlocally. It's all disclosive though so can't share pics.

I guess Eurler is an early approximation of Euler which will get closer in the next iteration (never too early for maths jokes 😊)
