minus-squaredavel [he/him]@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up59·2 years agoEveryone knows data is not beautiful when you visualize scalars using area instead of length.
minus-squaremagic_lobster_party@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up24·2 years agoI’m pretty sure it’s by volume, which is even worse
minus-squarebort@feddit.delinkfedilinkarrow-up6·2 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-squareOtakat@reddthat.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up10·2 years agoI respectfully disagree. If you want to compare orders of magnitude, you should use a logarithmic scale.
minus-squaredavel [he/him]@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up4·2 years agoYeah these are long-ago settled, 101-level, wikipedia-level data visualization principles.
minus-squarejeffhykin@lemm.eelinkfedilinkarrow-up1·2 years agoWait like 3D volume? 😬 I was looking at it completely wrong
