This "beautiful" dataset contains duplicate entries (#7 and 9). There may be others, stopped reading after that.

Thank you for the due diligence, I almost cross posted this unknowingly

The text at the bottom has duplicates, sure. Do you think that's the "beautiful" part?

[–] lolola@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I think a beautiful dataset wouldn't have a duplicate entry in the first ten rows.

[–] FaceDeer@fedia.io 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The duplication would result in an arc being drawn twice with exactly the same pixels. Ie, it would make no difference whatsoever to the display. It has no effect on the "beauty" part. You might as well be objecting to the font that the text is in.

Font choice is also a factor in data visualization hehe

You could literally chop the lower half of this image off and it would make no difference to the data visualization.

I'd say it'd be an improvement because I wouldn't have been distracted by this little mistake lol

I'm a data scientist and a nitpicker, not in that order.
