Today is my third year as a home ‘owner’ (well, the bank owns most of it). Years ago, I never thought I’d be able to buy a house with the way prices were going, but we managed to get it done. It’s a hard route for anyone to take - particularly in Australia, but man, it beats renting!

Embracing my info system roots again - found my first year text from circa 2001! #databs #datasky

I think I have permanent #ironviz fatigue!!

@heather-cox.bsky.social great to see another member of the APAC #datafam here!

The CRPG Addict has finally finished his epic review of early 1990s game “Betrayal at Krondor”. This game defined my childhood! His overview is awesome and he’s spent most of the last six months writing about it. You can see his final review here: crpgaddict.blogspot.com/2025/01/betr...

It suprises me that dual-axis charts don’t get the hate in #dataviz that is usually reserved for pie charts, when in most cases they’re much worse

I don’t know why the washing machines I’m looking at buying nowadays NEED to have AI in them.

#TinyTableauTip If you want to put some shapes into your data in @Tableau, you're not limited by the built in ones. Go to My Documents/My Tableau Repository/Shapes and add your own -several formats are supported (in a suitable named folder). Add a dimension on Shape on the Marks Card, assign values.

This is THE event for the tableau #datafam in the APAC region! Free as well!

While I don’t exactly know what it means, this viz is gorgeous! It makes me _want_ to explore it, just because it’s so elegant.

Suddenly SkyNet doesn’t seem so bad. #databs #datasky

Words cannot express how much I enjoy @joereis.bsky.social substack! Great reflective post on writing a pretty great book on data engineering! joereis.substack.com/p/fundamenta...
