Coronavirus - graphs [View all] denem Feb 2020 OP
Serious threat, useless post. Graphs without source data attribution, context or explanation. (n/t) FreepFryer Feb 2020 #1

Thanks for at least adding the source to these lonely, uninterpreted graphs. FreepFryer Feb 2020 #3
Such hostility. denem Feb 2020 #5
To lazy data science practices regarding a pandemic? Absolutely. Show some respect for DU. FreepFryer Feb 2020 #7
Not a random Web site. See the site's FAQ: Ghost Dog Feb 2020 #10
OP didn't even include link or cite. Just graphs. Bad practice and it deserves to be called out (Nt) FreepFryer Feb 2020 #11
Perhaps things should be "called out" in a friendlier way. secondwind Feb 2020 #30
If one posts bad data science wo explanation one risks curt critique. DU deserves similar respect... FreepFryer Feb 2020 #31
Moreover, the data for those graphs comes solely from Chinese authorities (see bottom of page). FreepFryer Feb 2020 #12

Thank you for this. I share concerns about underreporting of cases. Personal quarantines... FreepFryer Feb 2020 #6

It's my go-to site as well, and I thank the OP. Croney Feb 2020 #9
Nice the OP finally provided the link after pointing out the uselessness of unsourced data. (Nt) FreepFryer Feb 2020 #13
That was remedied within five minutes. denem Feb 2020 #16
Shouldn't post graphs without their sources. And still no intepretation. Thanks for next to nothing. FreepFryer Feb 2020 #17
I see you added the linear and logarithmic graphs, which only compare graphing differences. FreepFryer Feb 2020 #18
Thou does protest too much nt. denem Feb 2020 #19
Thou dost have zero relevant expertise. (nt) FreepFryer Feb 2020 #20

Thanks for the kick. denem Feb 2020 #23
Well that would be harder than your empty screenshot so I'd require you to pay for my time. nt FreepFryer Feb 2020 #27
Dude. Not cool. moriah Feb 2020 #24
Thanks for the kind comment. Amazing how low some go when they defend ignorance. (Nt) FreepFryer Feb 2020 #26
