I think there’s a really strong argument, and yes, I’m aware of the irony of me making this argument here - that influence is far less about the words that are used and far more about the community that is built, perhaps in the act of using words. This video explains it youtu.be/ndyf18FXg8E?....

The president has covered the Oval Office in gold, is planning a massive military parade for his birthday, and is now accepting $400,000,000 luxury planes from foreign powers as personal presents.

What the fuck are we doing here?

I think the answer is be deliberate, even when you aren’t. When you take on a data analysis project, you need to have the high-level goals in mind of what you are doing. But then sometimes you need to just explore and be as deliberate about not having an outcome in mind.

These calculations massively minimize the totality of economic damage by holding everything else constant. 10% is greater than the sales tax in Texas, a state without an income tax. I guarantee you that it has a bigger impact than $2500.

Or they have, and like the owner of the old place, along with oligarchs around the world since time immemorial, decided they want people to suffer so they can own a larger piece of a smaller pie.

On the communication side of dataviz — what would you say, were the "hits" in the last few years? Pieces that went viral, found wide adoption, opened new audiences, were shared a lot.

Dashboard overview of NSF funding cuts showing four key metrics at the top: Total Funding Lost ($2.059B), Total Grants Affected (3,483), Average Grant Size ($591,076), and Affected Institutions (700). Below is a choropleth map of the United States showing the financial impact of research funding cuts by state, with a color scale ranging from purple (<$50M) to yellow ($200M).

I hear you, I came here to get away from it. I think I’ll make a second account. It’s a complete shit show so hard to avoid or just take a break.

Everyone has a responsibility to not post completely unproven rumors on social media. Unless you are trying to discredit criticism of the administration, I don’t know why you do it.

I’ll trust it if it comes from a good source. I’m not a skeptic of news orgs but I am of uncredited rumors.

Limiting open data severely limits entrepreneurship, nee entrants, and competition. I fear that’s the point but I hope it’s temporary and caused by incompetence

In the meantime, NHGIS (https://www.nhgis.org/) has much of the data you'll need, and will remain functional. NHGIS has the latest ACS data and Census data back to 1790 along with Census boundary files.

You can support NHGIS here: makingagift.umn.edu/...
