Note that this is comparing the export and import market values. You can add value economically without adding bulk agricultural goods. So the true import/export ratio of tonnes of flowers is probably somewhere in between 1/7 and 1.

I'd already made the bracket viz here but then I saw this blog post about sankeys with circle segments: https://richardbrath.wordpress.com/2023/02/27/arcs-vs-beziers-sankey-vs-tubemap/

so I just used svgwrite to put down the circle segments in the right places. It's all svg rectangles and path elements.

So read this as “Esports” and bsports

There's the old bracket version, and my playoff implications viz.

This is why I chose Arkansas over Illinois, despite the latter being closer!

I think you would just call this a sankey

It's displayed as 100% only because the true probability is closer to 100% than it is to 99%, and I didn't want to quote a finer precision. If they were guaranteed of the spot I would have removed the number completely.

I do love watching hockey live but don’t follow. But THIS VISUAL. I’m wanting to get into data visualization, how did you make this one?

What is this type of chart called? I’ve seen many different visuals for data that I’ve never seen before in this subreddit. Leafs fan too by the way…the struggle is real.

It’s still going to get dark.

In the middle of the day.

Quickly.

In the span of a couple minutes It goes from “shadows are weird shaped!” to “okay, weird light, like when it’s snowing but sun shines through a bit” to “huh, THIS ain’t right” to full-on “ohmygod…” except whispered, because it feels wrong to speak out loud in normal voice.

I drove three hours last time to park at the side of a dirt road running through a field. Totally worth it.

In one 2018 poll Finland was also the most racist among EU so... Weird correlation ;D

Please don't. The atmosphere is filling with harmful greenhouse gases as you may have heard. Please just look at pictures instead I promise it will be better for everybody.

I have family in Burlington Vermont. “Inflate the guest bed, we’re headed your way!”

CH will split up the new bank in the upcoming years 🇨🇭

Yeah, as a European, I know all of these words, but I never have seen them in that order.

Sweet 16.. isn't that the show about entitled kids on their birthday?

Men's seed... well..

Combine both, and you get some nasty things.

I am guessing for that number, Schwab is the brokerage, not the asset manager. At Schwab's brokerage people have money in stocks, ETFs, mutual funds, bonds, etc. Some of the funds and ETFs are like iShares ETFs and contributing to Blackrock's AUM number.

Basically for the number being quoted, Blackrock has voting rights for the stock shares portion of that AUM. Schwab only has the same for those invested in Schwab's own funds.

I know ... but why seed?

We all know what it means. But normally one can trace the evolution of terms in language but with such a commonly used word this one doesn't follow. https://www.merriam-webster.com/ mentions an athlete being top "seeded" but not the origin of the term. https://www.dictionary.com/ only relates to the obvious in biology.

Example; the word slave can be traced back to the Middle Ages to Slavic, when central Europeans were traded as slaves.

My previous account is 14 years. My experience with Reddit was that it was really based around like hobbies IIRC. It was (without sounding cheesey) a bit more intellectual as there was no real alternative so people with niche hobbies would come and use it to discuss stuff super specific to a topic.

Most of my friends in senior highschool in 2010-2012 got into it, mainly due to our interests in geocaching and coding.

It was a lot less shitposty, less memes, bots, astroturfing and agenda posts, but it was a bit more dry and you couldn’t really spend countless hours just scrolling. It was more of a look at the front page which was much more dynamic to your specific interests. Look at your few favourite subreddits for a couple of minutes, then leave.

Then in like 2012-2015 it started becoming really, really political - and then it absorbed a lot of the Tumblr era content once it changed its policies (don’t remember what the exact change was). I think that because of the demographic that used it (mainly college age people) it skewed to the left a fair bit, and then once it absorbed small sites and become larger it attracted the typical online crowd.

It's called feeling social pressure to self-report as happy so as to not inconvenience people with your problems

Same! I've been waiting on this for years!

And then there were clouds. Amen.

with only the right graph it would less evident that reddit posting frequency is not growing anymore
