Oh man The Distillers were so good youtu.be/P5iSk-6Wdow?...

So good, started in February and going on to book 4 after I finish Dawnshard. Definitely going to pick up Mistborn after

Schalke thumped, sun’s out, touching grass at the top of Königsallee with Dozenbier reading Stormlight Archive. Thriving.

A scatterplot shows Bundesliga clubs’ total personnel costs (log scale) on the x-axis and points earned after matchday 29 of the 2024-25 season on the y-axis. A regression line indicates the average performance trend, highlighting which clubs are overperforming or underperforming relative to their spending. Clubs are color-coded by performance and budget category. Teams like Eintracht Frankfurt and Bayer Leverkusen shown as efficient overperformers, Borussia Dortmund underperforms.

I created this chart but I don’t like one particular finding.

If you correlate budget spent on personnel vs. points gained in the Bundesliga, some Bundesliga clubs are more efficient at turning spending into points than others.

Heja BVB. 🙈⚫️🟡

Bundesliga Zwei? 🥹

Hi Gregers, I'll have a full job description hopefully next week that will include more information on the project and the skills we are looking for but for anything else you can always send me a DM.

May have some freelance work for an RStats Shiny project on the horizon. Looking for someone for ~15 hours per week over 3 months. #dataviz

There needs to be some kind of Dunning-Kruger #dataviz for making your own interactive tables from scratch but the slope of enlightenment onwards is just acceptance that a component that can do everything everyone wants but with rigid behaviour everyone expects is really really hard to build

Should this have been several smaller PRs? Yes. Does it feel great removing all of those LOC in one? Also yes.

I’ve seen it on my own photos, use it for saving recipes I take a photo of etc… but that was always in the photos app, think it’s the first time I’ve seen it on a separate app though

Is this a Bluesky thing or an iPhone thing that I can select the annotations in this viz???? 🫨

This is where I got my professional start with the company and it’s honestly such a cool, impactful job with massive scope for creative thinking

Stats Perform are looking for someone to join the data analysis team to work along side Jonny Whitmore and Jon Manuel. If you're passionate about football data and want to shape how we see the game through engaging visualisations, be sure to apply! ⚽️📈📊 #dataviz

Cartogram of 299 German election districts

For the German election we wanted to use a cartogram of German election districts but didn't find anything good, so we created our own. Here's a little nerd thread how the final algorithm worked 🤓 🧵 #gis #cartogram #election #datavis #cartography

An honour to be nominated for Digital Sports Publisher, as well as Specialist Sports Publisher and two individual nominations for Data Journalist for @alitweedale.bsky.social

We're just checking with the Opta supercomputer about our projected chances of winning.

There are publicly available sources for xy data you can check out

Not dumb at all, it's just a regular 2d svg without any transformations needed for the xys. The viz container is just transformed using rotate3d in css.

You don't wanna know how long I spent working out why I was getting unexpected rerenders only for it to end up being the curly braces around this sort function fml 🫠

Love the colour on these

Did a little scroll piece on set pieces in the Premier League with @rbenson92.bsky.social

The influence of set-piece coaches in the Premier League seems to have grown significantly in recent years, but how much of an impact have they had, and is it just a fad?

Here, our new-look interactive article analyses Premier League set-pieces.
