Today's motto...
Today's featured picture
Michael William Balfe (1808–1870) was an Irish composer, best remembered for his operas. Balfe was born in Dublin and grew up on Pitt Street, which was renamed Balfe Street in 1917 in his honour. After moving to Wexford with his family as a child, he began a career as a violinist, moving to London in 1823 after his father's death, later relocating again to Italy and Switzerland, where he married the Hungarian-born singer Lina Roser. Balfe began pursuing an operatic singing career as well as composition, and moved back to London with his family in 1835. In a career spanning more than 40 years, he composed at least 29 operas, almost 250 songs, several cantatas, and other works. He was also a noted conductor, directing Italian opera at Her Majesty's Italian Opera House for seven years, among other conducting posts. His most notable opera is The Bohemian Girl, which continues to be performed. This photograph of Balfe was taken by the studio of the French photographer Nadar; this albumen print was made in 1900.

Graphs
editI love it how Aboriginal paintings depict a whole story.
Good graphs can also tell a story, as Edward Tufte describes in his books on data visualization.
Global warming
edit-
Daily Sea Surface Temperatures 60S-60N 1979-2023
This Copernicus graph is a jewel. It is a graph that tells a whole story in an instant.
The blue, white, red lines are like waves of an ocean. The colours seem to show increasing temperature, yet actually show time, decades of data. Time and temperature coincide.
2023 jumps out of the waves, is out of bandwidth. Oceans are warming.

Climate tipping point 1.5 °C

The 20 year average is expected to cross 1.5 °C in 2030.

In 2000 the tipping point was expected in 2045, in 2024 it was 2030.
