Hi Mastodon! 👋 #introduction I’m Edgar, and I built Terra Tempora: a free globe where you can scroll through history and watch borders, empires and events change over time. Pick a country, press play and travel through the centuries, or search for a battle or treaty. It’s open source, with no ads and no tracking, and it’s available in English, French and Spanish. 🌍 https://terra-tempora.com/?ref=mastodon Feedback and missing events are very welcome! #History #Maps #DataViz #OpenSource #OpenData

Alright I've setup a dedicated site to track the unnecessary police contact countless false calls have caused me. Today I pushed an update adding more infographics about the frequency of stops I've been subjected to for no good reason. Please consider donating to the legal fund for my daughter and I below 👇🏿 https://dayssinceivebeenstoppedbythepolice.com #MutualAidRequest #LegalFund #BlackDadsMatter #infographics #dataviz #KarenLaw #PNW #acab #Seattle #SPD

Days Since I've Been Stopped By The Police

A live counter tracking how long SPD can go without treating my custody exchanges like a crime scene. Spoiler: not long. Help fund the legal fight.

Quarto + #RStats + Observable = ❤️ New blog post from me about: 👁️ What is Observable? ❓ Why should R users care? 📊 How do you use both together to make interactive charts? Link: https://nrennie.rbind.io/blog/observable-r-users/ #DataViz #Observable #QuartoPub

Observable for R users – Nicola Rennie

Observable is a JavaScript-based programming framework for data exploration and visualisation, which is popular for creating interactive charts and dashboards. This blog post demonstrates why and how R users can integrate Observable into their existing R workflows.

There still is a long way to go in the Indonesia fire season but total estimated emissions are reaching comparable levels to those of previous El Niño years toward the same end of August. You can play with charts at Fire Emissions Watch: https://apps.atmosphere.copernicus.eu/fire-emissions-watch/?r=IDN&d1=2026-07-31&d2=2026-08-27&lvl=subdivisions&t=2026-08-20T03 #wildfires #Indonesia #climateChange #dataViz

Clients often tell me they feel the market is peaking, but feelings are useless in real estate. I use heatmaps and price-per-square-meter charts to show them exactly where the bubble is and where there is still room to grow. Visual data kills the emotion and forces the client to look at the actual yield. It is the only way to stop a buyer from overpaying based on a gut feeling. #dataviz #realestate #tbilisi

Most people mistake information density for insight. Cramming every metric into one chart just spikes cognitive load and hides the actual story. The best visualizations prioritize clarity over completeness. Less is usually more when you want people to actually understand the data. #dataviz #ux #datascience

The mean means nothing

I was recently trying to validate some performance improvements related to lld at $DAYJOB and it was a little frustrating to see the improvements in our benchmarks but not in the live-production dashboards.

Today Microsoft #Excel differences on Windows to macOS (missing menus just ribbon) got me thinking: can I not just run a #SpreadSheet in the #Linux #terminal for basic data work and visualisation? I want something akin to the original text only #Lotus123 (which I used for school work on DOS), but ideally with in-terminal graphics for #DataViz. There is https://github.com/andmarti1424/sc-im (must self compile, not trivial), several apparently abandoned tools like https://www.syntax-k.de/projekte/teapot/ - and multiple vibe-coded rust tools I'd rather avoid... Suggestions please?
