I'm a total newbie to #R and #ggplot2 but I'm slowly getting the hang of it! I've collated some resources I've found useful and may help others to get started. I would also love to hear if anyone has any other recommendations... 1/6
Online data visualisation lecture series by @rafalab: edx.org/course/r-data-… @HarvardOnline fantastic introduction to data visualisation in R which also includes important lessons on how to avoid misrepresenting your data.

here’s @Georgina4Mayo giving $127,373 of her own money to the local bowling club.

oh, hang on, it’s not her money, or even @LiberalAus’ money — it’s a commonwealth grant, ie. *your* money.

oh, hang on, she’s not even the local member. 🤷🏻‍♂️

what justification does she have?
did the good people of the yankalilla bowling club think it was her money?

did georgina think it was her own money to give?

did georgina think it was @LiberalAus’ money?

it’s *your* money!

in what world is this remotely ok? and coming at the end of last week… tone deaf. 🤦‍♂️
i’d love to hear from anyone on the #yankalilla bowling club committee — why did they agree to participate in this crass, partisan, sham event?

1. One question that jumps at me in this passage, Luke 10:25-37, is – Who are the robbers of our days? How do we describe robbery in our day ? The original robber is Satan who leverages the sin nature to destroy other people's lives (John 10:10). #Love
2. There are armed robbers who rob physically with weapons and there are also economic and political robbers destroying people’s lives. (James 5:4) #Love
3. Whichever way the robbers rob, they leave people wounded and hurt. There are people in our world today who are wounded. #Love

For those who are inclined to say that all Trans are harmless individuals in need of support, sensitivity, and understanding, this should help clarify that embedded within the alternative lifestyle movements are a significant number of very deviant and dangerous sexual predators.
This is a huge safety concern for women. As this took place in a college dorm, Universities must ensure they have experts on campus who can help them discern the difference between those in need of emotional /psychological support vs, sophisticated predators in "sheep's clothing"

[Thread] 0/9 I've always been an automation and data nerd.
When working at @JumiaKenya, I tested most tools enabling to use data to automate operational processes.
When I started actiondesk.io, I looked at them even more closely.
1/9 Let me summarize in this thread 3 years of testing, research and thinking around data automations and integrations. Those tools can help you save days or weeks of work, and make you a workplace hero
2/9 A. If you want straighforward "if this then that" type of automations, @zapier is the way to go. Nobody competes with them in terms of ease of use and number of integrations (+1000 vs ~250 for closest competitors).

The first time you read this you will be mildly amused. After giving it more thought you will realize there is some miniscule, yet possibly legitimate, concern to be considered. In five years there will be no amusement, only concern...
If Vladimir Putin were given the opportunity to trade two billion human lives in exchange for a small chance of seeing Russia be in control of most viably inhabitable land on Earth, do you think he would do it?
Of course he would, and he might.
Sitting on an icy tundra, sulking and sobbing over the fall of the Soviet empire, I propose there is some chance Vlad began considering that if Russia cannot win, then how can Russia spoil the fun had by the Western winners?
What would be the ultimate "trolling" accomplishment?
