🪧 Strejke i Hvidovre! I går, lørdag 3. oktober protesterede en gruppe foran restauranten Pink Salt, fordi en migrantarbejder ikke havde modtaget sin månedsløn samt feriepenge i 5 måneder. (1/2) #Danmark #dkpol #communityhousecph #pinksalt

Parliamentary seat share in the German Bundestag since 1949 Inspired by @economist.com's chart showing how the factions and parties evolved in Israel's Knesset. #ggplot2 📊

A ribbon chart which shows the share of parliamentary seats of political factions in the German Bundestag. Each election year is marked on the vertical axis. Each party's seat share is connect with the next election year. The name of the chancellors are marked at the first legislative term of their time in office.
The chart shows a lot of stability, esp. between 1961 to 1980, with only 3 factions in the Bundestag. The Greens joined in 1983, the PDF/Leftist Party in 1990 after the reunification. The right-wing extremist AfD entered in 2017. Since 2025, the Bundestag consists of 5 factions + 1 MP from the SSW.

#TidyTuesday 2026, Week 01: Tracking mpox search trends in Madagascar with {gtrendsR}. Code: github.com/rajodm/TidyT... #dataviz #rstats #ggplot2

Line graph showing Google Trends search interest for mpox-related terms in Madagascar from December 25, 2025 to January 9, 2026. Three lines track searches for 'mpox' (blue), 'variole du singe' (green), and 'monkeypox' (orange). Search interest began rising around December 28, peaked on December 30 ('variole du singe' and 'mpox'), then declined after the first officially confirmed cases on December 31, 2025 (marked by a vertical dashed line). Interest rose again in early January. Below the graph, three treemaps show top related search queries organized by the three main terms, with related searches including 'symptômes', 'traitement', 'vaccin', 'transmission', 'virus', and 'madagascar'.

BYOD for the 1st #TidyTuesday of the year. I chose to focus on the Africa Cup of Nations giants. Did the host nation make it to the top four? #rstats #dataviz #ggplot2

For last week's #TidyTuesday, I created a map of endangered languages around the world. Built entirely in R/ggplot2: transforming spatial coordinates, identifying hotspots and composing multiple charts! Code: github.com/gkaramanis/t... Inspiration: www.reddit.com/r/MapPorn/co... #RStats #dataviz

Map and bar chart showing the global distribution of 4 209 endangered languages. The world map displays threatened, shifting, moribund, and nearly extinct languages as colored points, with yellow areas highlighting regions of high language clustering. A notable concentration of approximately 700 endangered languages appears in Papua New Guinea and the Indonesian portion of New Guinea, shown in detail in an inset map (bottom right). The bar chart (bottom left) breaks down the 4 209 languages by endangerment status: 1 629 threatened, 1 835 shifting, 434 moribund, and 311 nearly extinct.

Here the city's press release: via.ritzau.dk/pressemeddelelse/1456… They ~quadrupled the bicycle budget to >600 mio. DKK. Below my full comments to the journalist, which was used for the article.

Kilde: Mobilitetsredegørelsen 2025

På cykelområdet er der ca. blevet bevilliget 160 mio. kr. årligt (10-års gennemsnit for 2016-2025). Investeringer på cykelområdet omfatter både midler til cykelinfrastruktur og cykelinitiativer, men også sikre skoleveje, trafiksikkerhed samt eksterne investeringer og bidrag fra puljer. I 2025 blev der bevilliget 174 mio. kr. til cykelområdet. Af de 174 mio. kr. blev 82 mio. kr. bevilliget primær til cykelinfrastruktur og cykelinitiativer, 68 mio. kr. til sikre skoleveje, trafiksikkerhed, strøggader, cykel- og gangbroer og 11 mio. kr. i forbindelse med eksterne investeringer fra trafikselskaber samt bidrag fra puljer.

From an urban planning perspective it is very good and much needed that Copenhagen is increasing its bicycle budget. It is especially important that some of this investment will be allocated to child safety, as Copenhagen's transport policies have indeed neglected children. I personally experience this every morning through the terrifying traffic chaos on the street of my 7 year old daughter's school. As a consequence, Copenhagen has fallen behind several cities in Europe. Investing into cycling is increasing a city's livability, and also comes with massive economic benefits, especially to the public health system.

We should however not forget, that still vehicular infrastructure receives a budget that is many times higher than cycling, so this bicycle budget is only like a drop in the bucket. Despite the laudable efforts, Copenhagen is still missing the political will to boldly transform its transport system towards becoming truly human-centric. Also the public wants this, as one can see clearly in Paris' ongoing success story. So, despite offering fantastic cycling infrastructure for fit adults, Copenhagen unfortunately remains inherently car-centric. A budget increase is great, but not enough by far - it will need a fundamental rethinking of transport, urban living, and crucially the political will to change this.

👀Looking into the future! 📈 Just wanted to share our patient outcome #prediction model which we presented at EULAR 2025. We have designed a #forecasting #model that can follow a patient's swollen joint count over time and estimate if their condition will improve or worsen. (1/3)

Poster Title: "Robust Prediction of Six-Month Methotrexate Treatment Outcomes in Rheumatoid Arthritis:
Results from Sequence-to-Sequence Models on the Danish DANBIO Registry",

This Poster describes a machine learning model, namely a TFT, for predicting how patient swollen joint count will change over time for a given RA patient who has been prescribed methotrexate.

Just made a #bsky account to vent about how #NotebookLM 's intro page is different for personal vs. organization users. * Briefing is upper-case in the personal edition, but lower case for org users. * 'org' is used instead of 'organization' in the personal edition.
