Audification is a kind of sonification useful when you have a large, continuous stream of data. Here, listen to the audification of the shockwaves from the February 6, 2023 Turkey-Syria earthquake.

@MicrobiomDigest @UBC @CellPressNews @UBC, can you comment? This is serious and will discredit the university if you do not respond.

Each day since the start of the trial is represented by 50 millisecond. Each pulse of sound you hear is one or more infections. The pitch of the sound tells you what cumulative proportion of participants in the group were infected on a given day.

I would love feedback from visually impaired folks.

@nickchk I've tried Pluto for Julia and, despite it's quirks, I like some of the features (interactivity, auto listing requirements, being able to write code in any order). Not sure how Quarto compares.

Here's a puzzle for Julians (people who code in Julia).

Update: Got an email acknowledging the mistake and apologizing for it. Keep up the good work @inclusion_ca.

@inclusion_ca emailed me to offer free Ballet tickets a day after the event.
