Weeks in and I still see nearly anyone using data poorly. In the sake of the general interest here's a recap of all the common #loserthink I see regularly correct by a cartoonist who never hated science. Here we go: 1/ log vs linear. As spread is slowing down everywhere this one isn't as bad as it was but still going. The first linear graph reflects of how the reality of deaths country wide but hides that it's actually slowing down, as shown by log graph scale. If you already knew, good4U!

Interesting figure if you’re trying to assess the Climate Change topic. I’ll post my comment below but look at it first and see what you make out of it /wo my bias 😅
informationisbeautiful.net/beautifulnews/… First, note the explosion of disaster events. The description doesn’t mention it but to me it’s obvious to me we didn’t really go X80 (~5 to 400+)between 1920 and 2005.
