    I love the concept of this figure, and I like how the right panel is built to present, but the actual results mapped onto the triangle are hard to figure out. Like this is the actual experiment they ran , but its not clear what represents what. Seems like maybe a density map might be more appropriate.

      It’s very dense but once you get it I feel like it’s pretty clear and easy to read

        These ternary plots are also commonly used for compositional data, e.g. for displaying a property of a three component mixture. Its three components shall always sum up to 100 %, thus the axes are increasing in opposite directions to each other.

    No offense to the citizens, but USA is a failed Capitalist experiment. Nothing really works optimally, or even close to it. Everything is backwards, wasteful, unjust, non-free, anti-democratic, and in general several hundred years behind more mature nations…

      Europe had an advantage on designing walkable cities by building them when there wasn’t another option.

      Much of the US was settled by cars and air conditioning.

        To quote Not Just Bikes: “the USA wasn’t built for cars, it was destroyed for cars”

        Most cities in the US were walkable and public transport oriented, but in the fifties all livable neighborhoods and city centers were bulldozed to make place for parking lots and arterial roads.

    Very cool looking graphs but omg I’m having a hard time reading them. I get that it’s saying everybody in the US drives and people elsewhere walk and use public transit but… I can’t wrap my brain around the figures
