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.
I know your comment was a joke, but am I right in saying dogs see monochromatic pictures in yellow and blue as opposed to black and white?
Interesting, everyone says they see black and white, but of course it doesn’t have to be that, just monochrome where the filter can be two colours best suited for a dog.
Yep! Dogs love the Swedish, Ukrainian and South Dakotan flags!
As a fellow dog…that butt smells amazing.
Touché
Thank you for your hard work at making this image easier to read
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.
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?
They are complementary, but not on the opposite side of the color wheel. They are primary or secondary complements, depending on if you are in additive (light) or subtractive (paint) color-space. The exact opposite of red is cyan, and the opposite of green is magenta
most of the states mean nothing to me
Not colorblind, but same 🤷
Thanks for the writeup! If I were giving a presentation explaining the Four Color Theorem, which four colors should I choose to accomodate folks with colorblindness?
As a non colorblind person, I would like to understand how this image could have been modified to include our colorblind brethren.
In general it is a good idea to use colour gradients that monotonically increase (or decrease) in brightness in addition to (or instead of) hue (see here for an in-depth comparison of different colour maps. It’s from a Python package, but it shows some interesting plots comparing different colour maps when it comes to brightness vs. hue). This isn’t just useful for colour blind people, but also helpful when printing in black-and-white.
If you absolutely have to use a diverging colour map, you might reach most people by using blue as a major component of one, but only one of the two branches (the map in the OP uses blue as a major component of both branches, which is why red/green colour blind people can have a problem with it). That way most colour blind people should be able to distinguish the branches, since blue colour blindness (Tritanopia/Tritanomaly) is much rarer than red (Protanopia/Protanomaly) or green (Deuteranopia/Deuteranomaly) colour blindness.
Apart from that it is also possible to mark information visually in other ways than by colour, e.g. by shapes and patterns, like dotted or dashed lines for line graphs, shaded or dotted areas for bar and area graphs, or different geometric shapes like crosses, diamonds, and circles when plotting individual data points, but that is probably more useful when different sets of data are plotted in the same graph.
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 hope they meet a very angry porcupine.
What a fantastic insult!
At least there are numbers.
I think this does a pretty good job for color blind people.
Assuming you’re on a phone, do you not have a colourblind filter in your device’s accessibility settings? I introduced a colourblind mate to that a few years ago and he was blown away.
I swear it only makes the situation worse
Can’t see pink or blue? Are you immune to gender affirming colors?
I used to run /u/dalton-bot on Reddit. Maybe I should learn how to use the Lemmy API to make a Lemmy bot.
Wow the right didn’t decide barbie was woke?
well ben shapiro made a 45 minute video ranting about it lmao so some do
Oh god I wish I could watch 2 minutes of the most deranged shit he said
2 minutes could be too much, your brain may melt
No, didn’t you see the article that it leans too much on heteronormative ideology?
LOL so the right crazies hate it because it’s too woke, the left crazies hate it because it isn’t woke enough, but most people enjoy it because it slides somewhere in the middle?
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I was just surprised
Me too tbh lmao, this almost makes me want to watch it to see what’s up.
I won’t be recording data for either movie though unless they’re counting torrents.
Yeah I just liked the cross over promotion stuff they did. I still have movies from last year to watch before these. I was just surprised no one I saw was having a meltdown over either of them before they even watched.
I think they do count public available piracy numbers into the data I feel like I read that on TF years ago after some movie tried to manipulate it and got caught.
Lol no way I didn’t know they actually counted those! That’s hilarious lmao. I honestly have no clue why that makes me laugh so hard but it does.
I really haven’t watched much new since like '10 but I may have to make these some of the few just for the laughs (though I do like history so I did already have Oppenheimer on my radar).
The only torrents available thus far are cam rips. Most people are waiting for an encode or remux to come out.
As usual for many new releases. I’m in no rush.
The South needs to sit down with itself and discuss their issues.
At least 250 years of not doing that so far…
And counting!
They did, and decided to blame it all on those “darn liberal city slickers with their fancy book learning”.
Source: Right now they’re literally blaming books for their problems, and are banning and burning them.
Conservatives all blame someone or something else for their problems, and even dismiss them exisiting until it happens to themselves or someone close to them.
Abortions are the devils work and anyone who aborts should rot in hell and misery. Except for my little Angel that made a honest to god mistake that shouldn’t ruin the rest of her life.
As a member of the south, I can say with confidence: You do NOT want the south to sit down and discuss anything… The results would be disastrous.
its the meth
And the vicious cycle of raising stupid bigots.
And inbreeding.
As someone from the south. This will never happen. It’s a matter of social pride that a southern man never admits he has a problem
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, it’s because Wyoming doesn’t exist
More like Whyoming.
Nah, it uses the Playstation layout, not the Nintendo layout. It’s got a square where the Y would be.
No one lives there
Oh no, no, but afaik the dude is on vacation at the moment.
Probably not surprising tht Oppenheimer is furthest ahead in New Mexico. But why is Mississippi so into Barbie?
I assume because Mississippi is so horrible they need escapism to mentally survive. It’s also possible there are more families with young children in the South.
Barbie looks like their hot cousin
It would be interesting to see a demographic breakdown of who is going to Barbie in MS.
Another possibility is that they’re not watching Barbie more, just Oppenheimer less.
Hey now! That’s my love box! And her name, is Step-Sony.
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
This is Google trends, so it’s not necessarily trending because they like the movie. It could be hate trending cuz of the “feminism”
Is the bomb program really that strong a part of the state identity? Can some locals comment?
Imagine porkie pig trying to buy a ticket for “op-opeuh-opeuh-opeuh-op–one barbie please”
Good to see the Dakotas keeping their feud going.
Same with the Virginias.
As always, South Carolina is a cringey little copycat
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.
I saw it last night too and thought it was excellent. It’s long but the story is being told in a way that continuously moves it forward at a steady pace. I can see that it wouldn’t be for everyone though. I happen to love a lot of movies surrounding the world wars and just read the Agent Sonya book which ties into the whole Russia part of the movie on how they advanced on nuclear technology. I’m also really looking forward to a nice toke and watching Barbie though!
I saw the trailer for the first time a few days ago and thought it looked boring. Barbie on the other hand looks like it should be fun.
Let us know how you like the Barbie one
The Barbie movie was a masterpiece
the fuck is going on in Mississippi lol
State where Barbie was created ?
hate searches. “What about this ungodly Barbie movie my pastor told me to hate”
Lol New Mexico…
People watching the movie like it is a documentary about their neighborhood
Honestly though, how many of us would know about how the government completely screwed the people in New Mexico living near the Trinity blast site, without movies like Oppenheimer and Sunshine?
They have good reason to watch the movie and keep the story in the public eye, because the clock runs out in 2024.
Wasn’t NM the same state that has the furry search explosion?
Ah yes, the two genders
2023 was the year Mississippi declared war on New Mexico.
I don’t get it. I know nothing of these two movies or what liking one or the other means.
Mississippi is definitely building up the spankbank.
I’m doing the 70mm IMAX with my son in Providence next Sunday. Gonna be awesome!
Wait aren’t this ghe blue and red states…?
