BREAKING: Donald Trump, who tried to overthrow the results of the 2020 presidential election and inspired a deadly riot at the Capitol in a desperate attempt to keep himself in power, has filed to run for president again in 2024. n.pr/3THqnJM
So excited to be there for this - just ordered plane tix and hotel! WOOT!!
It's been ages since I've attended (or hosted!) an in-person #dataviz event, and I couldn't be more excited to have two days of events, including the @infobeautyaward ceremony, happening at the end of this month in DC.
Join the big celebration Nov 30! eventbrite.com/e/information…
Wow - post-covid @cathaypacific had become useless. @AsiaMiles are unredeemable. And you wait on the phone for an hour and a half to find out. Time for another way to get to Asia.

White supremacists think whites (Christians) are the best, right?
But if Jews control everything, doesn’t that mean Jews are the best?
Are white supremacists admitting to Jewish Supremacy?
I’m just asking questions.
Imagine reducing a color palette by 97% and being able to reveal MORE detail...this is a detailed and eloquent argument for the benefits that can accrue from minimalism in design.

Everything we know in #datavisualization is wrong...really, we just don't exactly know if it is or isn't... In this @LI_learning episode, we hear from #dataviz #researcher @sharoz, one of the people who consistently reminds us about this. linkedin.com/pulse/everythin…
