  1. My latest project enables you to query the popular Gapminder dataset using natural language.

    The project was written with <200 lines of R code and is driven by Gemini 2.0 Flash.

    Try it out here: huggingface.co/spaces/Ifeanyi/

    Code is on GitHub: github.com/Ifeanyi55/Gapminder

    If you like the project, please give it a GitHub star 🌟

    Dies und:
    • detaillierte Grafiken
    • animierte Grafiken
    • interaktive Grafiken
    Ich wünsch mir so oft relevante Statistiken in augenscheinlicher Relation zueinander.
    Wertarbeit, die die Community oft nicht leisten kann.
    Seht Euch bitte nochmal #gapminder an, deren Werkzeug Bubbles' ist weltbekannt aus Hans Roslings TED talks.

  4. Yesterday I met a very smart friend, a data scientist / mathematician. We talked a lot about energy consumption, society and #ourWorldInData. Looking at my notes I realize that I owe him a link to the brilliant and uplifting talk “The Magic Washing Machine” by the wonderful presenter #HansRosling of #Gapminder.
    So if you’d like to watch something interesting and positive for your sunday afternoon, I suggest to watch this.

  5. One of the best websites around the whole web: gapminder.org

    Makes you understand important aspects of the world through beautifully visualized #statistics, photos, and quizzes that remove misconceptions. By a Swedish nonprofit.

  6. Und nochmal #Gapminder, da gibt es die gapminder.org/dollar-street?ln 265 Wohnungen in 50 Ländern mit Fotos von Bett, Toilette, beste Schuhe etc., weltweit nach Einkommen als würden sie in einer Straße wohnen.

  7. These days I have to remind myself again of this #quote by Hans Rosling in #Factfulness: "Remember: things can be bad, and getting better." With the news from #Ukraine, #Israel and other conflicts I sometimes doubt it, but I believe* that when we take a birds-eye-view of decades and taking the whole world into consideration, not just specific hotspots, it's still true. And I still have hope for the future of humanity. Which is what we need to inspire us to *act* to ensure that the world will continue to get a better place, instead of saying that the world is burning and giving up.

    I put the larger context of the quote into the image and its alt text.

    * Footnote: I said "believe" but the whole point of Hans Rosling is that we should look at the numbers and long-term trends. I'm not sure if there's reliable data already to put the last two years into perspective, I think for that we will have to wait a bit.

  8. I’ve had reason to reflect on how easy my life is recently. Not only am I a straight, middle-aged, able-bodied white guy but, according to Gapminder, I’m living life in a prosperous country on ‘Level 4’.
    Worth pondering.

    Inspired by the iconic Hans Rosling plot.

  11. Weil ich heute Links zu Hans Rosling, Gapminder.org und so rausgesucht habe:

    Ola, Hans' Sohn ist ähnlich gut und redet hier eine sehr interessante Stunde über "Factfulness" (auch das Buch) und die Common Misconceptions und warum wir alle ziemlich falsche Vorstellungen über "die Welt" haben, die den Fakten nicht (mehr) entsprechen.
