This is a great infographic with a high data-to-ink density.
- revorad 17y agoFalse. The data in this "infographic" is really best represented as a scatter plot, using much less ink, as shown in [1] and similar other blog posts. The lines are unnecessary and misleading. It's good that Tufte has made concepts like data-to-ink density popular. But I urge you to actually evaluate that value when you look at a graph and refrain from using it to merely signal your knowledge of the right buzzwords.
