For my dataz literacy folks: How are we teaching people how to read charts now and how has it changed over time? Is there a #dataviz equivalent of phonics vs whole word chart learning? I'm reading some articles about the current challenges with traditional literacy and wonder if we have it too.

#rstats I was recently reminded of this neat #ggplot2 trick by @tjmahr.com on how to create a 'self-documenting plot' that shows the code used to create it

Including plotting code as an annotation on a plot

I am a bit puzzled with the "climate stripes" today. Shouldn't the red part of the palette start at 0 - above is warmer (red-ish) , below is colder (blue-ish) ?
Also, why have this blue-red separation at 0.6 actually?

It is so good to be part of these spikes :-)

What is the difference between weather and climate. This #dataviz shows the "Central England" average temperature for periods ranging from 1 day (weather) to 30 years (climate). This shows the climate signal emerging. Note the varying y axis that covers the range of the data.
