No place is safe from Trump’s tariffs. Even uninhabited Heard and McDonald Islands near Antarctica. I guess those penguins must have treated Trump badly in the past! But wait, where’s Russia on that list? Why is it not there? Make it make sense.. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

$100M to turn the White House into a Tesla showroom sure has that unique 'Banana Republic chic' energy. 🍌https://www.nytimes.com/2025/03/11/us/politics/trump-buy-tesla-elon-musk.html?smid=bs-share

USA-Ukraine Agreement in brief (1/3): US: You owe us $500 billion. Ukr: What? For what? US: For helping you. Ukr: But you said it was free. And you signed a pact in the 90s that said if we gave up our nuclear weapons, you would guarantee our security. 1/3 www.nytimes.com/2025/02/23/w...

"President Trump Calls Zelensky a ‘Dictator’ Who Took U.S. Money to Go to War" This must be the dumbest episode of Black Mirror. The lunatics are running the asylum. abcnews.go.com/Internationa...

The U.S. is increasingly resembling Russia. Launching an unprovoked economic war against its closest allies is just the latest example. While brute force may yield short-term gains, the long-term consequences will be devastating, both the US and others. www.nytimes.com/2025/02/02/u...

@nytimes.com delivered some truly outstanding data / visual stories this year. A big shoutout to their #DataAnalysis and #DataViz teams for setting the bar so high! www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

I've built an interactive #PowerBI #dashboard for triathletes and #Ironman703 and 140 enthusiasts. This tool includes training plans, course comparisons, VDOT predictive models, and more. Share it with anyone who might need it 🔗 shorturl.at/KesWm #DataAnalysis #Dataviz #DataScience #Triathlon

“It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society” is Luigi Mangione's favorite quote. I'm not convinced all 12 jurors will say guilty at the end of his trial. Millions of Americans already see him as a folk hero, not an evil assassin. www.nytimes.com/2024/12/09/n...

Here’s the #data illustrating the consequences of American exceptionalism in #healthcare. It stands as one of the most spectacular systemic failures, with millions of paying the price.

Bluesky is different from X, not just for now, but will be forever. It operates with a better business model, doesn't have an unhinged megalomaniac owner, and its users have different values and behaviors. It's a space we all needed. Also, the image below is perfect! www.nytimes.com/2024/12/07/o...

The #data is clear, so RFK Jr should ban organic food! 🤣 #DataAnalysis

It's insane that in the US, drug testing is required for a Walmart position, yet not for people in positions of real power, where sound judgment is absolutely critical.

Finally, an article that made me stop worrying about the future of democracy! Now, I can worry about the future of humanity instead 😂. Honestly, seeing the new appointees, this is no exaggeration. Check out this fascinating and chilling article (gifted - no paywall). www.nytimes.com/2024/12/02/m...

I took the #Microsoft #PL300 exam yesterday, and it was quite challenging and comprehensive. I'm glad I spent time preparing for it. Now, I am officially a Microsoft Certified Power BI Data Analyst Associate! It feels great to receive official recognition for my skills. #PowerBI #DataAnalysis

A beautiful #dataviz and #DataAnalysis of trends in Elon Musk's behavior, which is gradually becoming more and more unsettling.

Building something new and being part of a fresh, dynamic community feels amazing! Also, it's like a breath of fresh air to have a space where scientists are welcomed and respected. www.nature.com/articles/d41...

Trump announced 25% tariffs on Canada to fight the ongoing fentanyl crisis. The Canada-US border is the longest in the world (5,526mi), 3x as long as the US-Mexico border. Despite this, less than 1% of fentanyl comes from the north. Clearly, the tariffs are motivated by something else. #DataAnalysis

Context matters. If you look at real wage growth (inflation-adjusted) there has been no "massive" wage growth recently. In fact the growth in the last quarters didn't even offset the wage decline between 2021 and 2023. Be responsible, or ppl will say there are "lies, damned lies and statistics".

I’ve always said that mosquitoes are my arch-nemesis, and now I have the data to prove it:

It's quite ironic that a social platform, free from the influence of a controversial billionaire promoting extreme right-wing theories, is instantly labeled as an echo chamber for the left. The double standard is striking.

This is wild. It seems like we're on the verge of a massive technological revolution reshaping our societies. However, at this point, it's difficult to say whether this will turn out to be good or bad for us.
