Did they actually release the data? I just see charts, and boy can I manipulate charts to say what I want!

- jlgreco 14y agoAs someone who can manipulate charts to say what you want, I assume you are familiar with what manipulated charts look like. Does anything stand out to you?
- smackfu 14y agoYou can only tell if you get the raw data. Omission of data is the biggest problem. Another good way to manipulate data is how you pick your axes. like having the x-axis be miles instead of time. Both are valid, but they show very different pictures. A miles x-axis emphasizes the parts where you were driving fast, while a time x-axis emphasizes parts where you are driving slow.
- jlgreco 14y agoI posit that if you had the raw data, you would be demanding something further, access to the sensors, internal communications about the data, whatever.

- gfodor 14y agoPresumably you could write a script to extract the "raw data" (whatever that means) from the charts themselves. Unless you mean you want finer-grained data. Which is just as easily faked.

- sp332 14y agoInsufficient labeling of axes?
- jlgreco 14y agoThe labeling seems sufficient to get the point across. Do you think finer grain labeling would tell a different story?
