Wir haben mal wieder die Nebeneinkünfte der Bundestagsabgeordneten ausgewertet: www.spiegel.de/politik/deut... In der Vergangenheit lief das so: regelbasiertes Parsing der Freitextangaben, viel Regex, viel Fluchen. Diesmal haben wir ein LLM-gestütztes Parsing genutzt – und sehr viel gelernt. 1/18

(S+) Gehälter, Gewinne, Mieteinnahmen: Wie viel verdient Ihr Bundestagsabgeordneter nebenbei?
Insgesamt mehr als zehn Millionen Euro haben die Parlamentarier seit Beginn der Wahlperiode neben ihrer politischen Arbeit verdient. Kommen sich Nebenjobs und Volksvertretung in die Quere?

Dieses Bild hat dann doch einen Platz in meiner Timeline verdient. Danke, @heygster.bsky.social, fürs schiessen & dann zur Hilfe kommen. Danke an alle für die Soli! Die ist viel wichtiger als der ganze Hass und die Gewaltphantasien. Und wird nichts daran ändern, dass ich diese Arbeit weiter mache!

Donald Trumps Broker haben im vergangenen Jahr kräftig an der Börse spekuliert. Wir haben ausgewertet, welche Aktien für ihn gekauft wurden und wo diese auffällig von seiner Politik profitiert haben.

Correctiv und NSDAP-Mitgliederkartei: Copy and Waste
Katapult und Correctiv wollten die Suche im NSDAP-Archiv schnell zugänglich machen – ohne Bezahlschranke. Dabei haben sie die Quellenprüfung vergessen.

You might have noted that we visualize constituencies and their winners as cartogram. We do this with a similar technique that @driven-by-data.net has already used last year. The method is based on centroids, Delaunay tessellation and a force directed graph layout.

Have you seen our Olympic medal count visualization? BTW: To generate the Olympic medal scarfs, we render it on HTML canvas. A powerful drawing technology, but inherently non-interactive. We wanted the medals to be clickable. So: How do you render an interactive canvas? A technical deep-dive #Svelte
