It shows that the trend lines are correlated, but that was pretty loving obvious already.

I might give it too much leeway, but since it's slide 53/60, there's at least reasonable chance that it's a decent graph in the context of the lecture.

But yeah, pretty drat hilarious out of context.

Brookings is legit, and left leaning if anything, so there's probably a reason they did it that way.

Even if you allow the 60% "saving" to be 40% "actual," which I think is what they were going for, how the gently caress do you explain the two 2X% being so wildly different?

The savings from "sustained use discounts" (24%) plus the savings from "list price differences" (21%) plus the savings from "rightsizing recommendations" (15%) adds up to 60% savings. Each smaller pie slice is, I think, the correct proportion of 60%. (I haven't actually measured it, obviously.)

It's still a terrible graph, but I can at least see the thought process.

Not surprised that teenagers find something named after Wall Street lame. I'm kind of surprised about Vice, though. Is there something else called Vice other then the media company that might be messing with the data?

They are probably familiar with it cause of that pewdiepie poo poo. Like they don't even hate it because it's "Wall Street" or because it's Murdoch's rag, but because it was mean to their favorite racist game shouty man.

I can't figure out what the colors mean at all. It looks like Starbucks, Spotify, and Xbox are all the same color. Legos, ESPN, and Costco are the same. I can't really figure out the connection here.

Yea I see it now, thanks. Doesn't make any sense though, might as well have grouped them by some metric, like news, entertainment, food, etc., but I guess that's why it's in this thread.

Communism will help more white people than anyone else. Any equal measures unfairly provide less to minority populations just because there's less of them. Democracy is truly the tyranny of the mob.
