proportionally

2019-10-03 22:09:18 UTC  

it's the dot that is not the smallest

2019-10-03 22:09:21 UTC  

but like 2nd smallest

2019-10-03 22:10:17 UTC  

it seems like the smallest dots are like 150k population and under or something

2019-10-03 22:11:55 UTC  

For those looking along

2019-10-03 22:12:36 UTC  

Chattanooga is in Hamilton county, it’s one of the dots just on the southern edge of TN on the GA side of the AL/GA line

2019-10-03 22:13:27 UTC  

basically the problem is with the scaling

2019-10-03 22:13:37 UTC  

they make the scaling visually disproportional

2019-10-03 22:13:41 UTC  

While Nashville is the blue dot in the middle, which is in Davidson County

2019-10-03 22:13:58 UTC  

Davidson County is about 2 times more populous than Hamilton County

2019-10-03 22:14:07 UTC  

That dot looks about 2 times as big to me

2019-10-03 22:14:10 UTC  

So that checks out

2019-10-03 22:14:15 UTC  

Do you have another example?

2019-10-03 22:14:17 UTC  

<:waitwhat:583236680903950355>

2019-10-03 22:14:18 UTC  

Simple as.

2019-10-03 22:14:50 UTC  

What’s your question?

2019-10-03 22:15:22 UTC  

Jeez, you two are still arguing?

2019-10-03 22:15:55 UTC  

Does anyone else want to judge whether that blue dot is twice the size of one of those big red dots on the west side of the GA/TN border?

2019-10-03 22:17:05 UTC  

Pelth is currently frantically googling the populations of Hamilton and Davidson County

2019-10-03 22:17:25 UTC  

And is swearing at himself that he is a stupid little bitch.

2019-10-03 22:17:34 UTC  

yikes

2019-10-03 22:17:40 UTC  

Oh there you are honey

2019-10-03 22:17:45 UTC  

What was your question?

2019-10-03 22:17:51 UTC  

didn't have one

2019-10-03 22:17:55 UTC  

your chart is shit

2019-10-03 22:18:00 UTC  

and you have bad eyes or something

2019-10-03 22:18:16 UTC  

You were having some trouble understanding the chart- do you understand it better now?

2019-10-03 22:18:24 UTC  

I understand it perfectly well

2019-10-03 22:18:33 UTC  

you're the one that doesn't understand how it's purposely deceptive

2019-10-03 22:18:36 UTC  

with the population scaling

2019-10-03 22:18:41 UTC  

It’s not my chart, it’s made by an analytics PhD from university of Wisconsin

2019-10-03 22:18:58 UTC  

So do you not believe that those red dots are half the size of the blue dot?

2019-10-03 22:19:00 UTC  

i saw his twitter and he has like no followers or credibility

2019-10-03 22:19:20 UTC  

Or do you not believe my population counts

2019-10-03 22:19:22 UTC  

Haha

2019-10-03 22:19:31 UTC  

the scaling is deceptive

2019-10-03 22:19:33 UTC  

simple as that

2019-10-03 22:19:34 UTC  

I mean, just the analytics visualization cert and the PhD

2019-10-03 22:19:39 UTC  

Answer the question

2019-10-03 22:19:48 UTC  

it's not hard to get a phd

2019-10-03 22:19:52 UTC  

it really isn't
