Wait a second, these are not real error bars … the author literally just put the letter “T” above the bar graphs 😭

TIL: debug = TRUE argument for element_text() in #ggplot2 "aids visual debugging by drawing a solid rectangle behind the complete text area, and a point where each label is anchored" 🤯 I don't know how I've never seen this before, it's super helpful!
Line plot of lifespans of 10 women in science who changed the world, faceted by profession. The plot shows how the debug = TRUE argument places a solid colored rectangle around the facet labels. The rectangles are cream-colored with a yellow triangle on the top left corner where the text is anchored.

Are you a {ggplot2} user who's very comfortable with geom_ but feel intimidated by stat_ and/or see no need to learn it? I wrote a comprehensive guide to stat_ that will hopefully convince you to start using it! #rstats yjunechoe.github.io/posts/20…

A thread for those who may not be aware. @airbnb uses AI to detect whether a user is a sex worker, mentally ill, or otherwise "un-desirable". Based on this algorithm, #airbnb bans these folks, even if they were *not* looking to use the property for e.g., #sexwork.
