Concerning for sure though I found this quote in the discussion reassuring: “…in the year 2023, the Scopus database included 2,511,962 scientific publications…compared to the number of 89 articles…the problem discussed constitutes only 0.000035% of the total”

When you use scale_fill_viridis_d() or scale_color_viridis_d(), ggplot chops the viridis color map into evenly spaced colors along the range of the gradient. For instance, if you have a plot with 4 categories, you’ll end up with these colors:

Figure showing 8 viridis palettes chopped at 0%, 33%, 66%, and 100%

The viridis palettes are great perceptually uniform color maps for #dataviz, but sometimes at the extremes they're too pale/dark. With ggplot and #rstats, though, you can truncate the palette to avoid the paler colors. I wrote a little guide for how datavizf24.classes.andrewheiss.com/news/2024-12...

I don't follow baseball 😉 and as a computational biologist I was raised on Benjamini-Hochberg-like approches. but I remember the first time seeing this figure (after reading a pharmacoepi paper by @zshahn.bsky.social) and was immediately captured by the logic.

In a new study, we develop a framework to identify nutrient hotspots in the landscape. We also discuss how nutrient spatial distribution can be indicative of underlying ecological processes. This could thus be useful to identify target habitats for conservation purpose (🧵👇) 🧪🌎 tinyurl.com/577jajvm
