Hey everyone, I'm still here!
Holidays and extra work - I was off Mastodon for a bit. Anything new with this platform? Or vis.social?

JasperHot take alert 🌋
Climate tech firms will live and die by how seriously we take dataviz & info design.
We need to be able to...
- Communicate the complexity behind our scientific models
- Surface insights to our customers & clients in an elegant & simple manner
- Motivate & inspire our customers and clients to act on the insights we've shared.
Climate Tech's raison d'être is aligned completely with the core directives of good dataviz, and it's SO JUICY to be right in the middle of both 🙌
David RibesThis is coming out dec.5
The Last Writings of Thomas S. Kuhn
which has some lectures and texts untranslated into english and an **especially compelling sounding** booklet called
✨ The Plurality of Worlds✨
"which Kuhn himself described as a return to the central claims of The Structure of Scientific Revolutions and the problems that it raised but did not resolve."
You Can Call Me AlYesterday we published the first issue of Data Bites. It's a bi-weekly newsletter with tips on data journalism/data communication. It's really an extension of our Intro to Data Journalism series but you can sign up for it on its own here: https://newsletters.mediahack.co.za/subscribe/databites/
keeps vis.social runningOh wow! ProPublica is now on mastodon! Woohoo!
@ProPublica does amazing work. And I'm such a fan of their WeePeople font that I've used it in various projects...Including this mid-covid piece about How Big is 400,000 https://kristinhenry.github.io/howBig/
This piece is both data viz and art, as I think of it. I was also outraged that so many were dying.
I'm still getting used to where I need to look in order to see notifications vs. responses, etc. etc. - be patient if I haven't seemed to respond yet
I need to figure out advanced web interface...
anyone have good ideas or workflows for using Lists/ Bookmarks/ pinning hashtags?
Wondering how I could start sorting my content to be more effective.
I'm just using the web interface/ browser. No apps.
At some point really soon I'll stop actively trying to bring people over from Twitter. I have most of my favourites here now :)
Looking forward to connecting/ talking/ learning from/ meeting others in this new space/arrangement.
Going to focus and be as intentional as possible with posting. Much less Twitter fluff.
