My big fat softy of a cat would agree with this. I get really miffed when people question my reluctance to leave her alone all day or overnight. I don’t do it for my own sake but also for hers, she holds a mean grudge. getpocket.com/explore/item...

Great piece of data-driven journalism in @theguardian.com today. Without migration, Europe's population would fall off a cliff in the next 75 years. Any argument for tightening borders needs to contend with that reality.

I'll start recording the Breaking the Rules video course tonight. How exciting… Members will get these as they're released (and the book is already available–e-book included for members, too) The launch offer ($50) will run until I finish recording the course, so now is a good time to join

Wow. This is a seismic bit of data journalism. What if the UK isn’t actually the sick man of Europe? www.ft.com/content/1409...

Ok, #AI and data folks: who do you think is doing the most interesting work regarding AI and journalism? I’m looking for the companies/startups/researchers whatever that are thinking about the future of news with AI.

Open-world games teach us something profound: You can explore anywhere, but the story only progresses when you take action. Read that again... Good morning :)

A personal milestone - my viz was selected for Tableau's #VizOfTheDay. It's my #8, but more meaningful to me is it's the first viz I did _not_ publish or promote on twitter. I had a lot of fun making this; I hope it leads to more folks exploring the great vizzes in this year's Iron Viz gallery.

Anyone come across some nice, recent examples of open data use in the public sector lately? What better place to crowdsource research for a newsletter than #databs 😊

That little countdown on 2FA apps stresses the shit out of me. I feel like I'm diffusing a bomb. If it gets into the red, I just wait. I can't handle the stress.

Exploratory Data Analysis is so much cooler when you understand why you're doing it and having the right statistical knowledge to help navigate the process. You'll stop plotting random graphs and stuff! 😂😂 Data Science is cool as hell man! #dataBS #datascience
