It's Tuesday and that means it's time for #TidyTuesday again! ☀️ For this week's data from @nws I looked at accuracy in predicting high temperatures - finding they're often over-estimated! 🔥🔥🔥

So I understand that the bird site has started blocking links to common/known Mastodon instances, and that doesn't seem like free speech to me. So... I did a thing.

If you go to https://spacekaren.sucks it is now a URL shortener that blocks the twitter user agent. That means you can share that link that will redirect to your Mastodon account without the pouty baby stopping you. If you find this helpful can you boost so others can find it? #TwitterMigration #Mastodon #Musk #introduction

This week's #TidyTuesday data is from the US Census Bureau and looks at changes in retail sales values over the last couple of years! 💵 Found some interesting (inverse) patterns between food/beverage and gas station sales...

I decided to have a little chat with #ChatGPT. Maybe it was the nature of the questions I was asking, but the responses were clear about the limitations of the model and its outputs. I was also pretty impressed with the way it summarised our "conversation" when asked to do so.

As a #journalist and #editor, I can see this sort of text summarisation as being a quite helpful tool when working with, say, a 10,000-word interview transcript
