The best stats you've ever seen | Hans Rosling 

Watched it 8 yrs ago. Recommended to a lot of people. No one gave any attention.

RIP hans Rosling

@@gamerfortynine I think his daughter did some work? I honestly don't remember

i want an updated version

So you'd go vote.

What's the population of wild birds/insects/mammals look like during all these stats?

@@BlueJDMMR2 During those years is unlikely for such data to have being recorded in large scale. Bird tracking with markers is newer occurrence. Why asking btw?

@@DarkGT Hans Rosling is utterly ignoring the sad state of affairs the natural world is in, and btw when I say natural world I mean the parts of the planet that aren't (nor should be) utilized for any metric of human consumption or growth...all that human development, came at the cost of permanent losses in the natural world...and there's only so much natural world we can chew through. He's leaving out a very important elephant in the room when he openly discusses all his optimism. IMO he has a lot more in common with Greek Sophists who believe convicing their audience what their perception of reality is the most important aspect of argument and debate, instead of Socrates who argued in favor of reality and facts forming the bases of views and opinions on important matters.

​@@BlueJDMMR2l 17:49 lllll

⁠@@BlueJDMMR2YES ! YES ! YES ! Dr. Hans Rosling videos must go on ! And he did it all with humour. May he R.I.P.

Same here mate. Broke my heart when I heard of his demise. It would have been a privilege to learn from him.

I am in the same course.

@@SM-ve9fx i didn't even completed the short video but this one is amazing

@@cynic24x7 same bro

I am also doing same course on coursera

lucax tshotting Losing this man was a tragedy. He was brilliant.

I completely agree with you Maria, best wishes PH

lucax tshotting I understand your point, but he’s a lot more engaging in his book Factfulness which is one of the best non fiction books that I have ever read

+shananagans5 Well said. Ignorance is a major problem for getting the right solutions to problems (if something even is a problem in the first place) and a data/evidence driven approach is by far the best way to identify and solve macro (and micro) problems.

+Kevin Octacok lol Yea, that has become my pet peeve over the years. I am only an expert on criminal behavior, psychology & societal crime patterns but I know there is a huge amount of accumulated knowledge in the professional journals. Virtually anything you can think of has actually been properly studied. If you are familiar with proper scientific method, you can look up & understand studies on virtually any subject. If it's a field you aren't familiar with, you may need to look up a few terms or go a little slower but good information is out there if you look. It's like two people sitting on the steps of a library & arguing for hours about what the first sentence of the book Tom Sawyer is & never putting in the effort to walk in & look it up. The Tom Sawyer analogy is funny. Spending billions upon billions in taxpayer money on misguided attempts to reduce violence while well studied, evidence based programs go unfunded year after year isn't so funny.

shananagans5 lol. Agreed completely.

a rare spark of accurate insight mr shananagans .. amid a sea of ignorance.. it amazes me how many people hear Hans Rosling say these things, then make comment as if its just another interesting dinner party topic, if they could only remember properly.. rather than the most crucial and badly needed conversation we should be having, to re set the massive misconceptions fuelling todays political polarisation and inertia..!

true. Challenger crashed because they didnt have Hans Rosling in their team (quite famous example of data and poorly presenting it; in visualization textbooks )

Just finished his book, he didn't die in vain!

I didn't know he died. What a loss! This dude has changed my life.

@@gargos25 Yeah and you do pubg videos. Not sure he's proud of this life change.

@@drafura He is not the only one who has changed my life. I have been assaulted in 2011, after which I wasn't able to communicate with people so I became extremely isolated. I had to have 5 surgeries, which didn't help that much either. I am still extremely limited but I just bought a car, last weekend. I am planning to drive to the sea, maybe Blackpool or Liverpool.

@@drafura: way to go, jackass. Maybe you should keep your thoughts to yourself...

He makes me hate statistics! How can he manipulate the data like that so dishonestly?

Evil Robin He literally wasn’t. His whole point was showing how people misinterpret statistical data and fail to update their knowledge over time.

His name is Hans Rosling, Swedish and He was a professor in Karolinska Institutet in Stockholm in Sweden. And he was very well known as incredibly good presentation.

@@lepetitchat123 you didn't get any point. So bad.

I am teaching myself statistics and it's by far the most complex thing I have ever come across tbh. I had no choice as I want to get into data analytics domain but I really hate learning Stats everyday. Watching this video didn't change my thoughts towards it at all haha...the video is an animated entertainment but when you actually dive into getting those visuals using programming languages it's brutal 💀

Gapminder

Legends say, before buzzwords came, people called this "statistics" and some old people sugguest it might have been worked quite well - which of course can't be true, right?

Information visualisation

I'm amazed that these videos are antique by todays standard... yet still his vision of presentation hasnt been fulfilled

RIP to this amazing man

Michi Hirti Just search bro. Use Google Scholar, national stats, UN, WTI etc. It's out there.

I love the worldbank databank, its super intuitive to use and very powerful :)

@ You took the words out of my mouth..

You mean 2022

@@muhamadrashad2269 exactly mean 11/2022 :)

BennyDACHO what is wrong with you?? Disgusting.

+Dennis De Gouveia he died? Whats wrong with saying RIP?

@@dennisdegouveia5439 He is died after suffering one year with pancreatic cancer.

Just read the book. Life changing.

The best of the best individual in the TED show just pass away ...I was just about to see his latest work after a long time since 2016....RIP my professor statistician the best only.........farewell and goodwill

I guess you measure reality with a manifesto?

🤦‍♂️

Woah really? I was hoping for more of these to come out...

+Andrei Andrei there's a new version of this talk but its 2009 though. Still better than 2006

Thank you....can you write me the link to it, please?

+chrthiel Thank you.

+Andrei Andrei Do it yourself :D And then maybe you can share with all of us ;)

I had to go back and just say that I really appreciate that someone was actually helpful and polite on a RU-vid comment. I have a hard time even reading the comments in videos anymore since it's just turned into a nightmarish orgy of negative human potential, but this inspired some hope!

1/3 off the world population starving may reach 2/3. Dump ocean water into dry rivers with ocean fish, have an ocean river, desal at farms, steam distiller a the kitchen sink, disinfected and salt free Collect America's lawn mower clippings for more cattle, new jobs. Instead we export corn and beef and have a storage and import meat from other countries Don't eat people, if it's time for cabalism as some are saying it's time for mass suicides, and don't eat them, no, you may not be a zombie. Stop eating people, plant cows eat chicken They tried to make viruses to eliminate half the world, they are unsuccessful, 65 percent of the world would say thanks for a synthetic opioid euthanasia drink by the 10,000 gallon vat, I could have done agenda 21 better 8 years ago If you won't be compassionate to the majority, nor will the the ruling minority to all. To them it is a matter of choice: Theirs Soon your cities will be without water, unless you hire people for US currency which costs the same to print as unemployment without a future and pump desalinated water from the ocean into river systems we're not being drawn to the sun, There's two black holes on the surface, whatever was gravitationally drawn to the core went there, and the overall gravity of the sun increased but it got hotter but we're moving away and angry solar flares and CMEs are coming after us for leaving. Heat pushes clouds causing flooding on other parts of this planet while coronal mass ejection and solar flares from magnetic connections from the sun to the earth are increasing. One day maybe it will arc weld this iron ball if we don't cross elliptical orbit line with the moon. Tell NASA about the moon and a year and a half later they make Moonfall. They should make a euthanasia for everyone who wants to go, or be stuck to endure the future even if you don't want to be here at all??? With the moon it'd be a tsunami one way and a volcano the other, the future of our relationship with the sun is a different issue However, 65 percent of the planet would take a synthetic opioid drink by the 10,000 gallon vat and say thanks, 1/3 off the world is starving to death, 5 percent need bones they can't or don't want to get replaced, 5 percent need organs they can't or don't want to get replaced, 5 percent are terminally ill 5 percent chronic pain, 5-10 percent never wanted to be here anyway, and everyone else will have a peaceful way to go when they want. There's no good way to go, some are 18 and 0 and going through death and not actually dying is not fun, some attempts are violent to go through. Instead of making a euthanasia available to everyone who wants to go they kill .08 percent of the world population in two years. Everyone was the target. I would have helped the 65 percent go 8 yrs ago. They're needs to be a peaceful easy way for everyone when they want to go. Guy saves 1M in state aid, paid 600k in social security, doesn't have to die every day, just gets to leave before suffering. The guy with the kids gets 800 k from Uncle Sam in life insurance he never signed up for and Uncle Sam keeps the other 800k. Free euthanasia. Cut inflation by more than half, more than doubled available resources. Have a job by a company which pays all the taxes and picks up grass clippings M-S to take it to fields now with cows on it, 4x your US cattle with lawn mower clippings from every years, save 2500 on property taxes and make sure your clippings are out in your neighborhood on Tuesdays Pump desalinated water from ocean wave current into river systems ASAP. It costs the same to print unemployment and section 8 as it fits a job with a paycheck that won't even take your house away Here's your check if you love your neighbors and don't want to leave your free housing, and here's your bigger check if you want to rent on the private market More confusing paint all the taxes making useful cool jobs, your paper actually goes somewhere and a quarter turns back into a dollar Dig out 10 ' of river bed and cast and set two 10' pipelines to being Atlantic ocean water to every house, use steam distiller for salt free disinfected water at the kitchen sink, dump waste water into sealed pipelines. It took a turn 2 years to dig out 10' of riverbed, everyone could be back to work working in every town and we'd be at with new infrastructure. Don't put salt in your water, have more salt for more roads in the winter. Send salt water straight to homes, they'll use a distiller for their few gallons of driving and cooking water and they're off toilet to tap loop. Use electrolysis for energy from salt water. At the very least, feed rivers with desal water immediately to quickly overcome drought shortages, no problem Make a grass and corn crop that grows in ocean water hybrid with say, oceanic grass root structures, best genetic corn crop growing in salt water in Texas and Arizona while you solar desalinate more oxygen and hydrogen into the air in a 24/7/365 grow season with ocean water and no weeds growing in salt water crops or lawns, fill your swimming pool with ocean water and water your lawn with salt water, don't put salt in your what salt water put it in the roads, use a small steam distiller made of glass and stainless to get disinfected and salt water free water for cooking and drinking, maybe an ocean let for your pool, were have to deal with ocean water rise, how about a Dolphin? Make more indoor fish farms, clean fish into a flash freezer, people eat fish, kid makes 90 k a year running fishing equipment not $9 an hour people eat well People could be cremated visible to the public and the smoke can be required in a gallon of water and the ashes and cement combined and people can be made into a concrete cast or flower pot. Otherwise, if they get cremated, without a filter, or dissolved in alkyld they go down a drain? And they had that place giving fake ashes and selling bodies Maybe you could make a wireless Tesla bridge (like when you touch a Tesla ball and the current comes towards you, though you are in the millivolts) to draw CMEs from to sub to say, Mars, maybe you'll stop the earth from frying A synthetic like fentanyl would be a good way for everyone to go who wants to go, instead they ban that and their next viruses will be upon them

What software did he use ?

@@okiwahboris1597 yeah. I want to know as well . Did you get the answer?

+Ben “Paracidic” Anderson by that logic, all the date the police and intelligence orgs collect is accessible for the public. because those orgs are publicly funded as well.. but i agree its should be accessible but only for scientists.

+Ben “Paracidic” Anderson Many data are freely accessible. UN, governmental stats, and many other organizations share their for free. Is it easy to find, search, and visualize? Not yet. Maybe some folks are working on it

+Vincent Labrecque Yes, there are websites like NationMaster that offer lists and maps of statistics.

+Absolian Yes, It should. Anonimity should be preserved of course. But why not make available how many arrests, what kind, etc were done?

Same

Took me ~1 minute. Pay it forward.

Musclebra

Woot

Did you find out what it's called?

Update: Google gapminder. It's a website focusing on questions similar to the one he asked about child mortality.

Tru dat

Ted talks always attracts naive fuckers, eh? #ExtinguishTheBern

TickleMeElmo55 Well you sure did just prove that.

+TickleMeElmo55 You got a little carried away there, losing what my point was to begin with and all that. You can have all the superiority complexes you want, but writing #ExtinguishTheBern or insulting me using hashtags, only makes you FEEL like you're superior to other people. Call me naive, well fine. I believe writing #ExtinguishTheBern is even more naive then writing #FeelTheBern. So what if this naive person thinks he just met someone even more naive? I'll tell you what. Nothing. Just a useless internet discussion between people living thousands of miles apart from each other, that will end into nothingness. Just vote for whoever you want.

TickleMeElmo55 Thanks for the insult! Care to be a little constructive next?

of course they're useful, like how incredibly easy it is to mislead people using them

slQueenBluestar wtf you talkin about?

The mobile revolution in China is the $100 dollar computer effect :)

XD I know right! That's the only reason I clicked this XD

Yes

Do you know?

Wait, this isn't about Agar.io?

God, when agar.io was still a thing

really amazing how much has changed since then!

+Julie Ogden yeah and still we have war hunger and stuff. Yeas so much better. Q:For whom? A: For rich ppl

Especially the aspect ratio.

Actually that is not strictly speaking true. As you can see on the data here, things are already very good for rich people - proportionally, it hasn't really changed. However, 2014-2016 data shows that things are continually improving around the world for poorer countries. You can look up the Millenium Development Goals and the changes made over the past 15 years on these. Poverty has continued to go down, education is improving, healthcare is improving, mortality rates are improving... despite war and natural calamities. It could probably have improved a lot more if more people cared about making a global difference (instead of raving about closing borders and building walls), but the fact remains that actually, people working towards global development are making a steady change for the better.

True BULLSHIT

Statistic show that you can not have only one of those.

Its already 15years and i would stay this video still very relevant

He has died 😢
