I plan to routinely prune follows and followers in order to nurture a smaller, more intentional microcommunity
I care about #accessibility and will not boost images or videos without #AltText
TY @rOpenSci@hachyderm.io for inviting me to co-host a social coworking session about #accessibility! Big thanks also to the wonderful participants that kept the conversation lively & interesting. Our collaborative links & notes are at https://github.com/spcanelon/ropensci-a11y #DataViz #DataJournalism #RStats #PyData
My first byline! I made #DataViz for an excellent accountability piece by Emily Rizzo for the Kensington Voice abt a Philly initiative that targets & arrests unhoused people who use drugs in Kensington. Emily collected & analyzed original data for 87 people bc the City won't provide evidence of the program's effectiveness. TL;DR the most common outcome for folks pushed through "Wellness Court" is the City loses contact w them & they receive a bench warrant #ddj https://www.kensingtonvoice.com/new-fast-track-court-for-kensington-lands-most-with-warrants-back-into-the-cycle-of-addiction-and-homelessness
