I recently became a dad, which is the most wonderful experience I've... experienced! But it's been no bed of roses 🎵 No pleasure cruise 🎶👑 It is no news that a baby disrupts parents' sleep. Well, I share my evidence of that with a #dataviz Still worth it!!!💙👶 #ggplot2 #rstats

We send stuff to space, and part of that stuff falls. Every year, more uncontrolled objects are reentering Earth's atmosphere. Most of these objects burn out before hitting land, but not all of them. If this trend continues, we might see more impacts in the future. #dataviz #space #earth

Betting ads made up 17.3% of all World Cup ads in Argentina, more than any other category. Meanwhile, 16% of Argentine teens (13-18) admit they've bet online, and 53% of them believe you can "win money easily." The real story: over 95% of online bettors end up net losers (UC San Diego). #dataviz

Do Argentines hate England? Musically, no. Historically, it's complicated. Over 1,330 hours of British music passed trough my pleased Argentine ears. Cheers for the music, lads. Today, though? The mythical little Argentine with the No. 10 blue shirt returns. #dataviz #worldcup #argentina #england

The group stage of the 2026 World Cup ended with 68,162 passes, 597 shots on target, and 215 goals. Also, African nations made history, with 9 of 10 qualified to the round of 32! #dataviz #worldcup #fifa

Possession doesn't win World Cup games. No team with over 65% possession won their first 2026 World Cup match. Is this an mind-blowing insight? No, just surprising. There is no correlation between possession and match outcome so far. I found this a bit counter-intuitive! #dataviz #worldcup

More people are attending Women's Super League football games. Yesterday, I was happily surprised to see 55,000 people attending a friendly football match between Brazil and USA women's national teams. That inspired this visualization. #dataviz #football

The "League of the World Champions" is also the world champion in football matches ending 0-0 in 2026. With 30 teams and only 2 relegations, draws are "good enough" for many teams. We, the fans, pay the price by watching lower quality football. #WorldCup #football #dataviz

The #football Argentine first division has 30 teams and only 2 relegations. Because of this, many weaker teams tend to aim for draws, and produce boring games. Comparing the data against the Brazilian first division (20 teams, 4 relegations), the results speak for themselves. #dataviz #brasileirao

Most palindromic places in Argentina are concentrated in the north. Many of these come from the guaraní language (Itatí, Amamá, Yatay). Makes me wonder how many palindrome places Paraguay has! I will probably explore that later, but I'm hoping for a Paraguayan #dataviz creator to do it 🙏

These are the 25 countries that saw the greates increase in financial inclusion between 2011 and 2024. The world made remarkable progress in financial inclusion during this time, driven by digital inclusion (access to smartphones). #30DayChartChallenge | Day 29: Monochrome #dataviz

Argentina's debt with the IMF is the highest in history. #economy #dataviz #30DayChartChallenge | Day 27: Animation

Where is Argentina's economy going? Argentina is transforming its economy radically. Agro and Mining are booming, but retail and industrial sectors are suffering. The latter two are especially important in terms of number or jobs they create. #30DayChartChallenge | Day 26: Trends #dataviz #economy

It seems that vaccinating your children "isn't cool" anymore. South America made great progress in immunization coverage during the 2000s, but sadly, that progress is being lost in recent years. #dataviz #publichealth #30DayChartChallenge | Day 24: Data day UNICEF

Argentina is the World Champion of Inflation. Between 1960 and 2024, the cumulative inflation was 233,345,339,553,130,700%. Throughout history, generation after generation, inflation in Argentina persists. #dataviz #economy #30DayChartChallenge | Day 21: Historical

How do men's and women's national teams compare in World Cup performance? I built a #dataviz to explore the results of a simple scoring system. #worldcup #football

#Inflation isn't really gone in Argentina: it's been rising for 11 months (3.4% in Mar-26). But the story doesn't end there: Food, beverages, housing & utilities have reported inflation ABOVE the national average for 6+ months. These hit lower income populations hardest. #dataviz #economics

An Argentine legend was born 76 years ago. In his honor, Argentina celebrates today the "National Musician Day". Descansá en paz, Luis Alberto Spinetta 💚 #dataviz #Spinetta #MusicianSky

I am usually happy when I share a new data visualization, but not this time. Each dot is a signal of extreme heat detected by NASA satellites. Over 10,000 hectares (~24,710 acres) of native forest are already affected. This National Park is home to some of the oldest trees on Earth. #dataviz

I had fun doing this, but I must admit: It was an unnecessarily complicated way to visualize price data 😅 #dataviz #bitcoin

I made a #dataviz where I am part of the data! Proud to be one of the 85k+ that show up every week. #football #riverplate

Ozzy Osbourne would have turned 77 today. Millions still listen to his music, and so will remain. Legendary artist, immortal songs. May you rest in peace 🖤🤘💜 #dataviz #metal #music #ozzy #ozzyosbourne

I was curious about the passing stats of @fcbarcelonabr.bsky.social and @fcbfemeni.bsky.social so far. Mapi León has the highest avg. successful pass distance with 1640m per 90'. The most accurate non-GK passer was Andreas Christensen (96.2%). #dataviz #football #laliga #ligaf

We love football in Argentina, but women receive little to no support whatsoever when trying to pursue a career as professional footballers. Hopefully we can change this someday. #dataviz #football #soccer

Wondering if you can outsource your data viz work to ChatGPT? 📊 I tested out a few different generative AI tools, giving them prompts to visualise two different data sets. If you're interested in the results, you can read them here: nrennie.rbind.io/blog/gen-ai-... #RStats #Python #DataViz #GenAI

Is the economy doing alright? Yes, inflation is dropping! No, jobs are declining! Reality is complex. We live in a time when cherry-picking and confirmation bias are at their peak. Critical thinking doesn't sell much, unfortunately. Inspired by @yesbut.bsky.social #dataviz #economy #argentina

The Minister of Economy spoke and the markets listened... Making bold statements about the dollar never ends well for Argentine politicians. History repeats itself. #dataviz #economy #argentina

More people are borrowing money in Latin America, but the trend is not the same in all countries. #dataviz #findex #finance #debt #credit

Over 2.000 streets in Argentina are named after today's date (July 9th) to conmemorate our Independence Day 💙🤍💙 ¡Feliz día de la Independencia para todos los argentinos! #dataviz #ggplot2 #maps #9dejulio

Football teams with expensive players tend to obtain more points (duh) But when we look at the data in a scatterplot by quadrants, we can immediately spot the overpeforming teams (cheap, many points) and the letdowns (expensive, few points) #dataviz #football #soccer #futbol #libertadores #sport

Copa Libertadores' Matchday 5 is done. Central Córdoba leads Group C with a €16M squad. Flamengo, worth €220M, is 2nd. Anyway, here are the points earned per every € 10 million invested after Matchday 5 (group leaders only). #dataviz #libertadores #football #futbol #ggplot

Imagine forgetting a $100 bill in a drawer at the start of the year, and when you find it in December, it's only worth what $32.10 could buy back in January. That was Argentina in 2023. #dataviz #economy #inflation #argentina #ggplot2 #ars

In under 3 years, Argentina went from "ridiculously cheap" to "painfully expensive" for travelers. On the other hand, Argentinians vacationing abroad doubled in 2025 compared to 2024 (1.3 million people), with the favorite destination being Brazil (they spent $465.3M Q1 2025). #dataviz

Monthly inflation rate by Argentinean president and month of presidential term. Last 3 presidents, first 16 months. Had a bit of fun with #ggplot2 and #gganimate. I love R, it's been a while since I used it 💙 PS: Too lazy now to update labels to English. #dataviz #inflation #argentina

#Spotify is down and it's driving me crazy. #dataviz

Some time last year I became older than the median human on Earth. That means over half the world population is now younger than me. Anyway, here's a simple #dataviz to put your age in global perspective. #sorry #notsorry
