minus-squaredavel [he/him]linkfedilinkEnglish57•2 years agoEveryone knows data is not beautiful when you visualize scalars using area instead of length.
minus-squaremagic_lobster_partylinkfedilink22•2 years agoI’m pretty sure it’s by volume, which is even worse
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink6•2 years agoI like it. you can visualize sizes with 3 orders of magnitude between them without one being microscopic. What makes this graph shitty, is that the spheres don’t look very 3D.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink9•2 years agoI respectfully disagree. If you want to compare orders of magnitude, you should use a logarithmic scale.
minus-squaredavel [he/him]linkfedilinkEnglish4•2 years agoYeah these are long-ago settled, 101-level, wikipedia-level data visualization principles.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink1•2 years agoWait like 3D volume? 😬 I was looking at it completely wrong
