Great way to demonstrate the absurdity of y axes that don’t start at 0.
As someone who deals with data visualization for a living, I mostly agree. But also, it's fine to do this as long as you have some sort of visual indicator to show that the data continues down to 0 as opposed to leaving it like it is in the chart above. If you need to be able to show the details in the data that is present higher up, removing the extra numbers where data isn't present is a good way to do so. But again, you need some kind of indication that you have done so or you're just being deceiving.
Heights are potentially a good example of that. Iirc, the standard deviation of height is only about 3 inches (for women), so doing the full y-axis would make small differences between groups impossible to visually compare.
How about a chart starting at 0, then cropping the bottom ¾ − not showing the full body but with heads in proportion?
If these women have such similar heights, what on earth is the point in showing the differences between them so misleadingly starkly?
Didn’t it need a zigzag line at the bottom to indicate that the numbers are cut short?
Could you give some examples done well of a visualization with a y-axis that doesn't represent 0? I'm curious what that would look like
Ariana “Grande”
yet another lie red to us by the woke left smh
More like Ariana Demi......amirite
Imagine if humans actually had height disparities like that
Me when big ladies
And width and depth too?
This would make Sabrina weigh a few hundred grams.
ariana no es muy grande
Sabrina Carpintera, por el otro lado… pequeña, y dulce
Same guide for tinder dating 5'11" vs 6'
There are 5’11” men on Tinder?
Just a myth.
Sabrina always sings like she wants me but when I show up at her house she calls security and I can’t handle these mixed messages.
I have no idea who Megan or Dua is.
I kinda like that. I'm old now!
If you were aware of Cardi B’s WAP, Megan was the feature on that. I only really know Dua Lipa because of the Levitating lawsuit
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megan_Thee_Stallion
I only know Megan for Wet-Ass Pussy.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dua_Lipa
Dance the Night is the only song of Dua's I recognize.
I just don't know why they don't all use last names. Full names is just really basic best practice on the first instance, before switching usually to last name only, or first name only if you're personally familiar with the person.
for the same reason that when we grew up you say
Freddie
or
Elton
And be confident "everyone" knew what you were talking about.
In the 90s you could arbitrarily refer to Michael and there was a 50/50 shot that anyone could guess specifically who you were talking about. I think pretty much everyone still knows who Arnold is when referenced.

That's 'cause there were two of them, Jackson and Jordan.
It's called having a stage name.
Not really. Only one of the people pictured really has a stage name, and even that's a stretch, because Beyonce created her stage name merely by dropping her surname. Normally, the term "stage name" refers more to people who use a completely different name, like Katheryn Hudson, better known as Katy Perry, or Ramón and Carlos Estevez (Martin and Charlie Sheen).
Dua Lipa has some bops.
What it feels like being a 5’ staff when fifth grade stampedes by .
/r/samespecies was banned for good reason
Sooooo, Taylor is only 10 inches long from her heels to the top her head? That's a large foot.
Research paper charts be like-
Dua Lipa is such a babe.
No Olivia Rodrigo? That’s a shame. At 5’4”, she’d be right next to Selena.
Nicki Minaj seething somewhere.
She'd be inbetween Selena and Ariana at 5 foot 2-3 inches
Anyone got Megan's number?
5'10"
Great, thanks.
Yeah but she can't talk right now got her mouth full
