  1. This is indeed beautiful, but IMO any visualization that includes both historical data and future projections needs an obvious dividing line between the two.

  2. This is what I see when I listen to music especially when I’m high lol

  3. Ah, some actual beautiful data presentation. Only missing some horizontal lines to make it a bit easier to read the data from the y-axis.

  4. So.. the amount of 20-year olds was never higher than amount of 60 year olds? How is that even possible?

  5. Projections for the year 2100 depend on forecasting how many children that our not yet born grandchildren will be having.

    Probably too far out to be meaningful.

  6. Cool looking shape. I barely get any info looking at the data, maybe only the fact that they have low reproduce rate.

  7. “If you carefully look at the data represented at the labia minora…”

  8. This looks like the cover for a Statistics 101 college textbook.

  9. This is actually a truly brilliant way to represent this data. A clear dividing line at which it’s no longer records but predictions would be good.

  10. Something is wrong with this data, unless I’m reading this wrong. Side note: beautiful plots should always have axis labels.

    In the past there was a majority of 0-15yos. In future there is a majority of 65-80yos. But the time in between has no majority of mid aged people. Where are all the people going and arriving from if they’re not aging?

  11. Stunning work, specifically the interactive version.

    I’ll be honest, I never understood why these sites enable projections by default, but it’s nice that I can filter out to the current year.

  12. It’s pretty and at the same time absolutely worthless. Dafuq? Lmfao.

    Can we go back to graphs that intuitively share information, rather than their whole use being that they look like a vulva?…
