Amazing use of a joyplot.

#Stata #joyplot v1.71 is now out which fixes a major bug where a bad local was resulting in a program crash under specific conditions.

Note that "joyplot" is also mirrored as "ridgeline" and both can be used interchangeably.

Made a joyplot of Switzerland following @aasmith.bsky.social's instructions.

I'm sure it can be improved but I really like how it looks already!

And then another graphics that also didn't make it. Here's a joyplot for UK residents in Australia. Definitely a cohort effect going on with Australia as people age and you can see the sharp increase in young people. ENDS

You're joking but this type of composite plot is commonly known as joyplot

“The name Joyplot is derived from the use of a Ridgeline plot of the intensity of pulses from a pulsar on the front of Joy Division's album Unknown Pleasures”

Why are ridgeplots (renamed from joyplot) assumed to be a probability distribution, when the original was simply intensity over time?

Ok true story: it’s apparently called a “joyplot,” after the Joy Division album cover.

One of my new favorite bits of trivia.
