For this week's Tidy Tuesday, we looked at earthquakes around Mt Vesuvius. I was interested in how many earthquakes were recorded each year, and how that was related to their average Duration Magnitude. I tried to use a dual axis graph for this, but these are generally advised against.

It's been a while, but I wanted to share some visualizations I made for the last few Tidy Tuesdays, though the topics for the last few weeks have been depressing to say the least. First, I have this bar graph showing how science grant terminations are distributed across different categories.

Again, he just thinks the act of importing is itself an economic loss. He has no concept of mutually beneficial transactions.

Yesterday I had two very different people tell me, "I thought #TidyTuesday data could only be accessed in R" & they thought the "cleaning script" at the bottom of each data readme was something they would have to run. No & no! The data is just CSV files! And the cleaning is already done! #databs

HEY. I'm looking to chat with professors, teachers, instructors, and educators of all kinds who use #Python in their data-focused courses (stats, analytics, modeling, forecasting, econ, finance, biostats, medical, whatever). Looking to connect py data learners with the data community. Help! #databs

A new Python edition of "Forecasting: Principles and Practice" is now available online at otexts.com/fpppy/. Thanks to @azulgarza.bsky.social, Cristian Challu, Max Mergenthaler, Kin Olivares & Nixtla for making this happen. #forecasting #python

For this week's Tidy Tuesday, we looked at general healthcare data from the United States from 2023 to 2024. This was a really tough dataset to wrap our heads around initially. I have a graph of the Top 10 States with the highest percentage of healthcare workers up to date with the COVID vaccine.

@dslc.io welcomes you to week 14 of #TidyTuesday! We're exploring Timely and Effective Care by US State! 📁 https://tidytues.day/2025/2025-04-08 🗞️ https://www.visualcapitalist.com/mapped-emergency-room-visit-times-by-state/ #RStats #PyData #JuliaLang #DataViz #tidyverse #r4ds

The main effect of tariff insanity: Uncertainty poisoning supply networks, degrading a lot of relationships at once. That scar tissue will linger for a long time. 1/

Vaccination eliminated polio from the United States 🧵

For this week's TidyTuesday, we played with a dataset of Pokemon stats and other features. I wanted to show how fully evolved Pokemons' strength has changed over the generations.

It's just about Data Science Hangout time! Hope to see y'all in about 10 minutes :) posit.co/data-science...

HAPPENING NOW! COME HANGOUT!

So, searching on @bsky.app has felt really unsafe 😰 The "Moderation" settings for images don't seem to help, and many of the words associated with data stuff are also associated with... other... stuff. Anyone have safe search tips or use other tools to interact with bluesky? #databs

Ready to dive into #MachineLearning with R? An Introduction to Statistical Learning (statlearning.com) is a fantastic (and free!) book that covers the ML essentials with clear examples. Each chapter has #rstats labs to practice - I've had fun completing this book with friends! #DataScience #RLadies

PSA: Learning #datascience with others beats Googling error messages every time. 😅 We've all been there! Finding a community (like a #useR or #RLadies group) or study buddy can turn frustration into “aha!” moments. Team up and save yourself some time and angst. #rstats #BetterTogether

Again, nobody is forcing them to put tariffs on bananas, coffee, avocados, or any of the hundreds food/minerals/materials that literally can't be obtained in the US. They could write exemptions for any or all of them. Instead they press the "make groceries more expensive" button.

The way this current administration uses the phrase "gender ideology" makes me somewhat NUTS. I grew up in a borderline fundamentalist evangelical community in Texas; we had gender ideology galore!
