Great video with @tanyashapiro.bsky.social and @cedricscherer.com walking us though using {ggiraph}. Plus, there's a plot with some #DrWho data :-) #data #Rstats #code www.youtube.com/watch?v=GnDj...

Chart crimes are everywhere. I ate it.

I have a slide about an unusual data request I once got: can we show that song choruses are appearing earlier due to the economics of streaming (gotta hook people in early to get paid)? I joked that it's not as if anyone's got a database of song structures. But it turns out that someone has...

Last week, I crafted my first-ever gauge chart 🏎️ to showcase partial radial plots for our #ggplot2 [un]charted lesson on "coordinate systems" Thanks to coord_radial(), partial circles like those are super easy now — and of course I couldn’t resist making a polished and animated version 💅📽️ #rstats

ggplot + ggiraph in action ⚡ I teamed up with @cedricscherer.com to put together a fun ggiraph talk for useR conf this year. Of course I had to show an example inspired by him! Stay tuned for behind the scenes how-tos, tricks, and code. Excited to share more info when the talk is live!

Two redesigns of the cluttered bar chart on Europe’s largest urban areas 📊 Two reworked variants — same data, different goals: show the data vs. tell a story. Decluttering, refocusing, adding context, and using visual emphasis can turn a chart into insight. #dataviz #ggplot2 #rstats #tidyverse

It's always fun to create bad charts for workshops 🤪 #retro #dataviz #workshop #ggplot2 #rstats

Why do we 💙 #ggplot2? Yes, it's for the Grammar! But also for the passionate and supportive community — and their steady contributions to the ggplot2 universe: all the extension packages 🧩 that take its impressive flexibility even further, making it more powerful and beautiful 🙌 #rstats #tidyverse

Many people have been saying that percentage change scales should be logorithmic. I think it's an excellent opportunity to use #ggplot2 dual axis capabilities to add a clarifying "times/fractional axis" to make the relationship clearer #rstats gist.github.com/boundlesstor...

A while ago I reluctantly decided that there is no rationale for me to learn ggplot. I still believe so. And yet, here I am, desperately resisting temptation. Two guys I admire, and a course that looks brilliant. Sigh.

you cannot learn from finer masters of this craft

This looks like a great opportunity to learn from 2 #DataViz experts how to go from #ggplot2 blah (me) to ggplot2 wow (their work). This week's launch price of 79 € is a bargain. I've signed up! (I plan to go thru the course later, when the weather turns cold again and I'm indoors more) #RStats

Wow, this is an amazing collaboration #RStats!

We're happy to see so many charts shared on Bluesky. ♥️ So, we prepared a chart, too. It shows the number of contributions for each prompt on Bluesky this year. #30DayChartChallenge

Thanks to everyone who contributed their #DataViz, celebrated others’ work, and shared encouragement — thank you all simply for dedicating your time, in whatever context, to help make the 5th edition of the #30DayChartChallenge such a success 👑

Rest well, lovely Lotte ♥️ You brought so much joy, warmth, and love to our home. We’re grateful for all the years we had together and will miss you forever.

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. 🙈⚫️🟡 #30DayChartChallenge #Day13 Clusters 📊 #rstats
