@ExWHUEmployee What interview are we talking about?

[Ben Davis @benjamesdavis]

WiP 🧑‍💻: trying sto simulate brown trout spot patterns in @observablehq.

Such a cool array of patterns, with broad variations across river catchments 🏞️, regions 🌍 and maturity ....and giving each individual fish unique character.

@flowingdata Interesting..missed this first time around.

[Ben Davis @benjamesdavis]

Tableau Tip - Synchronized Scrolling

ICYMI at TC23, @flerlagekr showed us how to synchronize scrolling across multiple sheets in just 30 seconds. Put them on a dashboard, make the dashboard tall enough to remove scroll bars, then add the dash to a story! https://t.co/5ciwLPHQ4L

@sr4thore @WHUsparetickets £35 for the pair? How did you get them so cheap?

@MarshyBoy26 Let's not jump to conclusions. Give him some time for his abilities to unravel, and mysteriously become a bit shit

@BMooreWasTaken @tableau @tableaupublic This is great. Idea & execution!

[Ben Davis @benjamesdavis]

@curataceae Any good?

[Ben Davis @benjamesdavis]

@curataceae Hi Lee. I found this in Epping Forest. Google lens reckons it Podoscypha multizonata...and one of the profiles I read said that Kew mycology department must be informed due to its rarity?!

[Ben Davis @benjamesdavis]

@curataceae What would you say the 'big 5' are for an Epping Forest mushroom safari?

[Ben Davis @benjamesdavis]

@curataceae Seemed opaque, with a slimy cap. I thought maybe a porcelain, but I would've thought the cap would be flat at that kind of size.

[Ben Davis @benjamesdavis]

@curataceae Are you able tell me what this fly-smothered deadwood dangler is?

[Ben Davis @benjamesdavis]

@WildTroutTrust @NatResWales Thanks!

[Ben Davis @benjamesdavis]

@WildTroutTrust Why are there so few coarse fish in Cornish rivers?

(That's not the set-up to a Xmas-cracker joke. Am genuinely curious).

[Ben Davis @benjamesdavis]

@WildTroutTrust @WildTroutTrust Do you know if it's possible to access the EA fish survey data for Wales? It's not in the https://t.co/fTvrKuEVhe NFPD dataset...but I know it exists somewhere.

[Ben Davis @benjamesdavis]

@WildTroutTrust I'm currently analysing the EA fish survey dataset...and am surprised to see how geographically distinctive fish assemblages are on our small island.

[Ben Davis @benjamesdavis]

@The_BoleynBoys Ah ok. That will never come good
