For future reference: how to bivariate colour scale.

[Lisa Hornung @LisaHornung_]

My first bivariate choropleth map in python, many thanks to Andrew Hamilton who wrote a great tutorial on how to create the bivariate colour map (https://t.co/NSpYGmR5hP).
Full code behind the map available here: https://t.co/FgblLOjXy1

[Alex Trueman @truemoid]

I like the bivariate colour scale. Trying to imagine a use in my work. Maybe probability and grade for simulation work?

Mapping meat consumption versus GDP per capita. And yes – meat consumption tends to rise when richer. There are a few exceptions but no real outliers.

Some #Python sequence shortcuts (works on lists, tuples, range objects, byte arrays, and anything else list-like):
first = seq[0]
last = seq[-1]
first_n = seq[:n]
last_n = seq[-n:]
first, *middle, last = seq
middle = seq[1:-1]
reversed = seq[::-1]
lazy_reversed = reversed(seq)

TIL that @GitHub has added a new feature to GitHub-Flavored Markdown to adapt blockquotes to Notes and Warnings (also known as "admonitions")

Syntax is super simple:

> **Note**
> This is a note

> **Warning**
> This is a warning

Just found the ‘merge_omni_with_directional()’ method of rmsp’s experimental variogram implementation. Use the more stable omnidirectional variogram to define short scales. Use directional variograms for longer ranges. #gamechanger @resmodsol
