@jreevers5 I must be out of the loop 😕

[Alex Freberg @Alex_TheAnalyst]

Whenever I see something in the news showing a visualization and they say “here is what the data is telling us” I am 100% suspicious of what they show me. It’s so easy to manipulate visuals to show what you want while technically showing the real data.

Having a brother with colorblindness, this is something I'm always trying to take into consideration when creating my data visualizations.

If you've heard the "data viz rule"—don’t use red and green together—@HighVizAbility Tableau Visionary Jeffrey Shaffer shares tips for designing visualizations that are colorblind-friendly.

If you're not getting stuck & googling things for your project, you're in your comfort zone & most likely you're not learning a damn thing

As frustrating as it was to be banging my head on my desk for an undisclosed amount of hours, the payoff from finally figuring out where I went wrong and seeing my code finally run made it all worth it. 😁

Two letters.

Couldn't figure out why my code wasn't running and after an amount of time I'm not willing to disclose, I finally found the culprit. Two letters missing in my conversion function!! *facepalm*

@InfiniDream1 Keeping at it. Programming takes practice. It's hard to get started but it's even harder to sticking with it everyday until you become proficient at it

[Chris Kennedy @datadevchris]

@evan123_eth @PatrickAlphaC @InfiniDream1 Beat me to it lol

[Chris Kennedy @datadevchris]

One of the elements covered in my data viz course today was how to conjure emotion with your data story. One of the examples provided was this viz by @periscopic on gun deaths in the US. It has to be one of the most emotiolly striking vizs I've ever seen. https://t.co/MUAkg7wlbk

@bce3227 R but mainly because I haven't learned python yet lol

Sometimes you have to be a bit shameless to get your first job in data. Messaging people, sending your resume to people, calling recruiters, posting on LinkedIn about needing a job - no one will remember that in 10 years, they will just see your success. It really is a grind.

[Julian Lennon @JulianLennon]

The War on Ukraine is an unimaginable tragedy...

As a human, and as an artist, I felt compelled to respond in the most significant way I could. So today, for the first time ever, I publicly performed my Dad’s song, IMAGINE.

@uvejiogu Thank you, Ugochi!!

[Chris Kennedy @datadevchris]

My new job has been paying me to take #tableau and #healthdata classes on #coursera. Jokes on them. I would've done them for free! 🙃 But seriously, can't express how much I appreciate a company who invests in educating their employees like this 🙏

@yhl100 Having just discovered this musician and this video, I was thinking the same thing.

[Chris Kennedy @datadevchris]

@gardenofniko Congratulations!!
