11.5 what? Data doesn't really mean much without units.

[–] imgprojts@lemmy.ml 9 points 2 years ago

That's pretty close to 12 so you know it's better.

per 1000 internet users by country

And why did anyone decide making "unknown" countries completely invisible?

[–] FUsername@feddit.de 5 points 2 years ago

Well, the scale is given. Just the unit isn't.

Interesting data but in terms of viz, this is an odd choice of color scale - the max and background being very similarly dark-toned. It may look better with flipped color scale, or maybe background should be lighter. Plus, I’m mot sure Greenland being very dark means there’s no data or it’s the max.

It appears that the Greenlandic coast is filled to the brim with Github users.

The UK has the least amount of programmers per capita in Europe? Quite interesting, any ideas why?

[–] hardware26@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 2 years ago

Not every programmer has a github account.

Anywhere where we can see the raw data?
