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

well deserved!

Ah, looking at your previous code and wondering what fever brought you to write this or that 🤭

that's good to hear! One of my struggles learning Svelte (and perhaps, code in general to be honest) is "what did I do wrong or is this because of the position of the planets?" 😆

👀 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! 💡

Paris?

Bruxelles?

+1. went to Chicago last year, will attend Miami virtually this year.

Wake up babe, @alv9n.com dropped his latest @puddingviz.bsky.social's project. #dataviz 📊

Last year, there were talks of viewing parties for people who could not attend in person, I believe? It could be cool to organise one in Europe?
Disclaimer: not throwing my hat in the ring to organise, just wondering if that's something @datavizsociety.bsky.social or someone is working on?

Wow, I had to check this was a real article and not a spoof.
Using biased data visualization to push a narrative is like using phrenology to justify beliefs—it looks 'scientific' on the surface but falls apart under scrutiny.

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.

Went to Chicago last year, but can't justify to myself the expense nor the carbon footprint two years in a row. And yeah, unwilling to visit the country right now.

There be dragons: dataviz in the industry I started being serious about data visualization around 2005, when the field was still pretty niche and people like Martin Wattenberg, Ben…

"…there’s one nut we have not been able to crack: anchoring bespoke data visualization as a full fledged profession in corporate settings."

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

My Saturday morning productivity? Nonexistent! 😂

all good points!

I totally get that. My challenge is this impression that "well, if that's to build bar charts, we don't need a data person" and I'm trying to explain my contribution could be a bit more than that :)

very valid points, thank you for sharing!

#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

love it. It's funny how many of the examples listed in this thread are from like a decade ago.

interesting to see how this company focuses on a "cinematic data visualization tool that turns your data into memorable animated presentations"

does look like a labour of love! Thank you for the pointers.

but also: this format is so good, showing the nuances, the footnotes, the data biases and interpretations. Chef's kiss <3 www.youtube.com/watch?v=8TPa...

there is something about bringing back analog materials that compels you to pay more attention.
