To my knowledge, cbfc.watch is the first project of its kind to make updates to film censorship in a country available for subscription with an RSS feed :P

We're tracking and archiving data on India's film censor board and making it as accessible as possible.

Quick plot for #TidyTuesday week 48 - Exploding snowman
Code: github.com/deepdk/TidyT...

Scatterplot titled ‘Does Zurich’s Boeoegg Really Predict Summer Heat?’. Each point is a year from the Boeoegg festival, plotted with burn duration in minutes on the x-axis and average summer temperature in °C on the y-axis. Year labels are shown in colored rectangles: teal labels for years with average summer temperature at or below 19°C, and coral labels for years above 19°C. A dotted upward-sloping trend line indicates a slight positive relationship between longer burn times and warmer summers, but both warm (coral) and cooler (teal) years occur across short and long burn durations, visually suggesting that the Boeoegg is a noisy and unreliable predictor of summer heat.

Over the past 1 year, we've switched to Typst for creating PDF reports, because it enhances flexibility and client usability. For JHU's IVAC reports, Typst allowed us to design state-specific exemption boxes.

See how we did it + Typst tips by @joseph-barbier.bsky.social.

Taste meets tables 🍜📊
For this week’s #TidyTuesday I built a table with {shiny} + {reactable}. In the table, recipes with search, country filters, star ratings, and inline “view details” panels showing images, timings, and ingredients.
There are still a few tweaks to make.

#TidyTuesday week 36 - Henley Passport Index Data.
This one created in #Tableau
each column is a visa-free count;
height = how many countries sit there.
Tableau Public: public.tableau.com/app/profile/...

A stacked bar chart titled “How many doors does each passport open in 2025.” The x-axis shows the number of visa-free destinations, ranging from 20 to 190, while the y-axis shows how many countries fall into each category. Each small block represents a country, color-coded by region: Africa, Americas, Asia, Caribbean, Europe, Middle East, and Oceania.

Quick plot for this week’s #TidyTuesday - Scottish Munros
Code: github.com/deepdk/TidyT...
#Rstats #DataViz
A grid of triangle-shaped plots showing the number of Scottish Munros and Munro Tops across survey years from 1891 to 2021. Each year is represented by two adjacent colored triangles: green for Munros and purple for Munro Tops. Numbers inside the triangles indicate counts, e.g., in 1891 there were 283 Munros and 255 Munro Tops, while in 2021 there were 282 Munros and 226 Munro Tops. The chart highlights fluctuations in classifications over time. Title reads “Scottish Munros” with a note that Munros are Scottish mountains over 3,000 ft, and Munro Tops are subsidiary summits over 3,000 ft.

Hello #dataBS (& especially #TidyTuesday) fam! I'm trying to organize a thing to help me keep TidyTuesday running smoothly, but first I need to get a bit of a runway. Every week I curate a TT dataset, and it's wearing me down. Please see github.com/rfordatascie... for some ways you can help! #RStats

*Huge* new feature in Datawrapper! You can now create locator maps using the globe (aka orthographic) projection. Makes small scale maps so much better compared to the Mercator projection! All thanks to the amazing folks at @datawrapper.de and @maplibre.org ❤️

🎉 Big news! After 5+ years of consulting work under the R for the Rest of Us name, I'm launching Clarity Data Studio.

The name confusion was real – people thought we only did courses, not knowing about our consulting work building reports, websites, and more.
