As a colorblind person, fuck whoever decided on the colors for this image. I hope they meet a very angry porcupine.
Fixed
As a dog, I’m wondering why you posted the exact same picture.
Thank you for your hard work at making this image easier to read
Touché
Can you provide some detail on your comment? As a non colorblind person, I would like to understand how this image could have been modified to include our colorblind brethren.
It looks like going from blue (-20) to white to blue (+20). It could be modified by using a different color palette - for example blue/green, blue/red, yellow/blue. A good indicator is also if the colors are still discernable in grayscale altough this will be pretty much impossible on a divergent color scale unless you add a second identifier such as dots.
I am red-green colorblind. So certain shades of colors like that I literally can’t see. Blue and purple are issues, and certain shades of yellow and green.
In the image above, I cannot really see a difference in the extremes of the legend. The gradient is definitely not helping. I can see the difference when put near each other. Like Mississippi and New Mexico are clearly on opposite sides, but I would not be able to tell you which direction either leaned because I can’t see what the legend is showing. Likewise most of the states mean nothing to me since they’re part of the gradient itself going towards colors I can’t distinguish a direction from. Without the numbers, this map would mean nothing to me.
Simply put, pick colors on opposite sides of the color wheel when trying to show differences like this with gradients and you’re more likely to to okay. Don’t pick colors that are next to each other. TRhis might as well have been a blue/purple gradient with an extra z-dimension for time or some crap,
It’s not gray, almost no one actually sees in greyscale, despite the jokes. It’s always just certain shades the eyes can’t distinguish differences from.
A good example for other common colors, is peanut butter looks like a shade of like greenish tan or maybe dark khaki, not brown as most people describe it to me.
A decent resource to explain visually for those that can actually see the full range of color: https://enchroma.com/blogs/beyond-color/how-color-blind-see
Hey there, sorry to bother you even more, but I’ve got a follow up question. You said working with complementary colors (“opposite sides of the color wheel”) might work better, so in general it’s easier to distinguish for red-green colorblind people. I’ve always thought it was especially hard to distinguish red from green in those cases, but red and green are complementary colors. Where did I go wrong here? Is it something I misunderstood from your explanation or is it my understanding of red-green colorblindness that’s just wrong?
most of the states mean nothing to me
Not colorblind, but same 🤷
Can’t see pink or blue? Are you immune to gender affirming colors?
While most of the states with zero are searching for both equally, I get the feeling that Wyoming is zero because no one searches for either.
No one lives there
Oh no, no, but afaik the dude is on vacation at the moment.
Lol New Mexico…
Probably not surprising tht Oppenheimer is furthest ahead in New Mexico. But why is Mississippi so into Barbie?
Los Alamos is worth a visit. The lab is locked down (a road goes through it, you are not supposed to take pictures), but there are a couple really neat museums. One of the retired age volunteers at the museum asked us how deep of a discussion we wanted. He went down a deeep rabbit hole of chemistry and mechanical bomb design. It was obvious he had strong knowledge of how atom bombs worked. It was glorious. And the boys boarding school is also neat.
That sounds amazing. if I’m ever down there I’ll try and find that guy
Imagine porkie pig trying to buy a ticket for “op-opeuh-opeuh-opeuh-op–one barbie please”
I don’t get it. I know nothing of these two movies or what liking one or the other means.
I only know that Oppenheimer is a movie because of that IMAX post the other day, but I now have to ask: there’s a Barbie movie?
Yep and honestly the trailer is great.
I’ve seen the whole movie yesterday and I think it’s pretty awesome
I saw Openheimer last night and it suuuuucked. Def not worth 3 hours of my life, and proof again that Nolan should stick to fiction.
And quite a few people left before it was over.
Barbie, I’m seeing tonight, and am pumped about it.
Let us know how you like the Barbie one
Good to see the Dakotas keeping their feud going.
Same with the Virginias.
Oregon -2. really? I thought they were more like Cali and Wash…
I flat out laugh now when I hear them mention the word snowflake.
I saw Openheimer last night and it suuuuuucked. I mean there were a few ok sequences, but def not worth 3 hours of my life.
Proof again that Nolan should stick to fiction.
Oh yeah? I found it really compelling and well done, but as with most biopics the pacing is definitely a bit slower than most dramas. For being 3 hours I thought the time flew by but the third act did tend to drag a little. Visually I thought it was beautiful with a lot of nice stylistic touches and I was blown away by the acting. (Edited a couple typos)
I felt like every time it was picking up steam it would just stop being fun. It had no self-awareness.
It seemed like it could’ve been a great 90 minute movie, but no one would’ve believed a Nolan movie could’ve been good under 3 hours, so they just jammed in all this boring dialogue that went nowhere.
It was a good role for Matt Damon though. He can’t carry a movie, but goddamn he does great cameos.
… meh
Mississippi is definitely building up the spankbank.
