fascinating and, to excuse the chose of word, sobering analysis and explainer.

Nice write up. This came up in a recent Scotland User Group.

"Make it fun".

I think this is really important factor on honing skills but also pushing boundaries. Similarly, on personal projects, if it stops being fun, then its either time to push to publish, or archive, right!

Going green gonna make map go green.

Amazing initiative and hard to argue with

Great project.

Some terrifying results and the climate reparations interactive visuals are powerful.

This was really interesting.
Sane, and measured, without the hyperbole that ~85%* of AI content seems to be.
From myself in a BI Role, embracing new tools whilst honing craft in existing tooling is a forever balancing act (sometimes limited by tech stack)

What do we think?🤔

Hmm…. A Daily Mail headline so clearly designed to make you furious.

Being shared by salivating Tory MPs who love a good rage farming story!

So, what’s going on here?

Let’s take a look!👀

Just how big were the dinosaurs, is a question my kids keep asking me.

This Dataviz 📊 looks at comparing Dinosaur sizes, using @johandegroot.bsky.social funnel area charts for inspiration.

I've referenced this back since seeing you do this at DataFam so many times

This is so good @datavizlouis.bsky.social

@dopemeat.bsky.social ... take a look at this

@darraghmurray.bsky.social its been pretty spectacular seeing how this particular viz-evolution has capture imagination of analysts, regardless of their tool of choice. Nice collaboration

"messing around" 😆
you're producing consistently great stuff

@trebor-rolyat.bsky.social your animation in the Val Kilmer Tableau dashboard is superb, really pleasing on the eye.
Had a look how you achieved it, and it is elegant. smart stuff

lots of really sane hints and tips here from @johandegroot.bsky.social

Hide “0” values - thats a nice one to add into the toolbelt!

Thanks for having me on @datavizlouis.bsky.social !

Need to get back on and start on the next viz now....

Smart viz, lots to consume and click through. Shame NA takes a big proportion of the spend.

For avoidance of doubt, what is value associated for the Y Axis? Also, the click through for Total doesn't seem to be working for me (vs LY / LY-1 would be interesting to see in time)

This is cool, I like it!
Could you add cumulative runs into the tooltip?

This is also something nice on Smith:

Such a simple change from the default makes a big step in user experience. Nice walk through @johandegroot.bsky.social
Nice config for Tableau could be the have a toggle to work Dates desc as default?
