Hi #EconTwitter!
Are you an applied economist who loves data visualization and binscatters? 📊📈
Don't miss👇this newly accepted paper in the American Economic Review by Cattaneo (@princeton), Crump (@NewYorkFed), Farrell (@UCSB) & Feng (Tsinghua U)!
They provide a lot of stuff, including novel visualization tools, principled covariate adjustment, estimation of conditional mean functions, and much more.
Super cool #econometrics paper - highly recommended! ⭐️⭐️⭐️

🆕blog post summarizing Tim Harshbarger, Darrell Hilliker, @jcmankoff, and my recent work on designing more accessible dashboards for screen reader users.
We also presented the paper @sigaccess where it was🏅nominated for the best paper award: tableau.com/sites/default/fi…
What if there was an easier way to design dashboards for accessibility?
Tableau Research @10_arjun explores techniques to make dashboards more accessible to screen reader users.

The HCI and Visualization group at Autodesk Research (@ADSKResearch) is looking for graduate interns and postdocs to host in Toronto for 2024. We have a focus on HCI AI, but also software learning, visualization, AR/VR, novel interaction techniques, creativity support, and more!
Wow! I didn't imagine how much fun I'd have with #DataPhysicalization. You're still in time to participate in the project run by @VizFSG. Just let your imagination fly! In my case, I chose to use leaves 🍃🍂 to create a heat map of global temperatures. 🤓

A while ago @Reyfenberg and I made a tutorial on how to create 3D data visualizations with svelte...
He just took it to a whole new level!

I've written a blog post on creating large-scale interactive force-directed graphs, with PIXI.js v7 handling the rendering and D3.js for the force simulation abilities.
I also compared rendering between PIXI and D3.

I’m happy to share that I’m starting a new position as Senior Data Visualization Editor, Global Publishing at McKinsey & Company. Very excited about this new journey @McKinsey
Why should stories be visualized as storylines? How else might stories be visualized? Narrative-time vs. world-time, StoryPrint, and text-heavy historical narrative visualizations. richardbrath.wordpress.com/2…

When I'm thinking about HCI implications for LLMs, I keep coming back to David Kirsh's work. Here is a great paper about how tools influence thinking and work. adrenaline.ucsd.edu/kirsh/Ar…
These decisions are hard to make, and you'll be happiest/most-effective in a place that best aligns with you, so I would also encourage you to look at all my wonderful vis colleagues who are also recruiting PhD students: vis-phd-positions.netlify.ap…
Interested in vis society? I'm looking for new PhD students next year!

1. How do we design visualizations to serve more diverse communities of people?
2. How do we change visualization education to stop prioritizing such a narrow band of people?
Five months ago I started experimenting with self-tracking in a text file. And it is still going on. Here I describe the syntax that I developed to keep the log machine readable, yet easy to write.
