Line chart comparing change in players for battlefield 6 and arc raiders since launch. Arc raiders has maintained similar launch levels to date while battlefield 6 has steadily declined.

Two games, two very different post launch trajectories.

I've been itching to compare ARC Raiders with Battlefield 6's playerbase since I read @paultassi.bsky.social 's article last week:

For #TidyTuesday this week, I created a parameterised plotting function to create an alluvial chart to show highlight different features of the talks at this years useR conference 📊

Amazing work! Love your inclusion viz, it's a stark story but it's presented so clearly

Colorful, professionally decorated cookies that with various images and messages like "We fucking survived Quant I", the R software logo, p < 0.05, scatter plots, bar charts, pie chart

Gave the final today in my doc stats class. One student brought these cookies to share and I've never been so proud. #RStats #AcademicSky

I ran my first marathon on Sunday and visualised my training mileage.

It's heavily inspired by my friend Sam's wonderfully creative viz found here!

A useful 'extra' in #ggblanket v12.3.0 is the `aes_contrast` function. It enables the colour of text or labels etc to be determined automatically for contrast based on the fill. This function is based on code developed by @teunbrand.bsky.social #rstats github.com/teunbrand/gg...

Oo yeah that'd be interesting! Id be curious about the days either side of the clocks changing too

Gah yes of course! I was so caught up with e420 being a partial day I overlooked the OG date trickster!

I love the Hobbit! The opening chapters are probably the cosiest thing you can read before bed.

Also happy birthday! 🎂

So nice! That 2008 drop off and February lull are both super clear on here

Thank you!! I had a lot of fun tinkering about with the aesthetics of this one 😊

A grid of points representing car crash fatalities in the United States with months on the X axis and years on the y axis, descending from 1992 to 2016. The macro trend suggests car crash fatalities are decreasing through the years. And within a given year, fatalities start the year low in January and February before climbing to peaks in the summer and autumn before declining slightly into November and December.

#TidyTuesday looking at car crash fatalities in the United States.

I didn't find anything exciting in the 4/20 story so I kept it high level and looked at top level fatality figures.

Haha the best kind of corny isn't it! Probably because the UK hides its best dad jokes on the back of chocolates

Three violin plots, each showing the weights of penguins of different species. Each chart includes a separate plot of male and females. Gentoo penguins are the heaviest, with all males and most females weighing over 4kg. Adelie and Chinstrap penguins were both similar weight, with most females below 4kg and most males between 3.5 and 5kg

Why can't penguins play football?

Because there's snowball!

Any excuse to Google the old jokes from the back of penguin bars...

A few days late to #TidyTuesday because I couldn't quite crack a good way to get the adorable Pokémon icons into a plot!

Not sure I solved it, but we have viz-off! 🚀

Looking at how much starter Pokémon grow from their first to final forms.

So stylish! Those fighting types really knows how to colour coordinate 🥊

Younger me thought completing a Pokédex was the ultimate achievement.

Turns out it's building one! What an ace choice for this week's Tidy Tuesday.

Who knew bug type was so versatile? Love how many stories you can quickly find in here!

Thanks! I hadn't thought about it but that'd be a nice extra touch - especially since they're already the unit abbreviations

My first ever (public) attempt at a #TidyTuesday!
