Thank you for sharing! This is what I was trying to (very inelegantly) get at the other day - that everyone designing is for the middle person but 1) that excludes 90% of people who aren't that middle person and 2) you can't make good anything designing for that middle person.

this chart is still very ugly but you get the point. Peak July electricity needs look very different when you NOAA forecasts under different scenarios instead of just using historical data.

Chart that shows difference between PJM projections of electricity demand vs. what the demand would look like if you used NOAA predictions to model climate rather than historical data

Finding out your (not mine, but many others') electricity provider is not accounting for climate change in their forecasts is a little like finding out your doctor doesn't account for the existence of germs

I'm writing a data story on power grids, summer heat, and data center construction focusing on the PJM Interconnection Service area(serving all or parts of DE, IL, IN, KY, MD, MI, NJ, NC, OH, PA, TN, VA, WV and DC) and this (search PJM 2025 long-term load supplement) has to be seen to be believed:

Screenshot which states: The 2025 Long-Term Load Forecast uses historical weather data from 1993 to 2023 as the basis for constructing forecasts. No explicit assumption is being made about Climate Change, and thus the assumption is that future weather will resemble past weather.

Hey! Ever wonder if your city has more or fewer of different amenities? Check out my visualization: public.tableau.com/views/Makeov... Compared with the average city, New York has - less improved trail mileage (makes sense) - more community garden sites - more splashpads and inclusive playgrounds

LRT I'm not actually that into the'more women!' framing (though I do think women screenwriters/directors are more likely to be overlooked) as the answer is just ... Good stories. That's it. And as Hollywood films get more cookie-cutter, the truer this becomes. But that's not quantifiable so... 🤷‍♀️

Hi Friends! I need your help for a grad school project! I'm working on an interactive data storytelling assignment and I need to do some short audience interviews. No expertise in anything required, I just want to get a sense of how different people engage with news/information and I'll ask you a couple questions on the specific topic I'm writing a data story about.

Doing research on Greenwich Village today and ran into the craziest story. Like something out of Columbo...

New York Times article, Dec 1 1965: A "successful" bank robber, who later talked a look-alike into a repeat performance, was sentenced to 15 years in prison yesterday for the original holdup. The successful robber, Robert White, 29, of Selden, L. I., escaped with $3789 from the Greenwich Village branch of the Manufacturers Hanover Trust Company at 3788 Avenue of the Americas, on March 8, 1962. Later White was sentenced to an indefinite term at Rikers Island prison for a payroll robbery. There his cellmate was his look-alike, Thomas Sorenson, 26. He talked Sorenson into robbing the same bank after his release from prison. They thought witnesses would identify Sorenson as White. White would have an alibi because he would still be in prison. So, last Jan. 8 Sorenson went to the bank branch, followed White's plan, but was captured. He then told them the whole story. Before White was sentenced yesterday by Presiding Judge Edward J. Dimock. Assistant United States Attorney Robert J. McGuire told the court the Government believed White had committed at least four other bank robberies in the city. Sorenson is to be sentenced tomorrow.

There are people in Minnesota who are violating the law, and it's the people who are flash-banging babies, shooting people who pose no threat, and deploying tear gas against peaceful crowds. The way to end the violence in Minnesota is for ICE to stop committing violence against Minnesotans.

Very funny and apropos that there was no seating at Fulton Transit Center to watch the former, especially given the context of the latter, how much of it centered on how public spaces are created without adequate seating out of fear of 'undesirables' but how it in fact makes things worse for all
