@sallyschu @TMWData Lunch = same as dinner, a mid-day meal. Did you know that what we called "dinnerladies" at school are now called "lunchtime assistants"? So maybe the use of dinner for a mid-day meal will die out after all!

@TMWData @Data_Anna But where does lunch fit in to that @Data_Anna ?
Lunch - meal eaten at lunch time
Dinner/Tea - evening meal - depending on effort - Cooked meal/out = dinner, sandwich/jacket potato = tea
Supper - Just what posh people do

Come on now, we all know the real debate is between "dinner" and "supper"! (This is AP here, trying to defend the cultural relevance of English dialect debates in anglophone nations around the world). twitter.com/YouGov/status/…

The real North/South divide: is it "dinner" or "tea"? Our new map shows the boundaries between Dinner England and Tea England yougov.co.uk/news/2018/05/2…

@TMWData My POV as a northerner (UK):
Dinner = mid-day meal OR what you go out to a restaurant to eat
Tea = evening meal eaten at home
Supper = what posh people eat OR a glass of milk and a piece of toast (or similar) before bed

Oh my! This is something to bring a smile to those of us working madly to prepare for #GDPR - at least we haven't done this => twitter.com/hattygrant/sta…

My new fave thing is spotting mistakes in privacy policies. The @Space_NK one still has someone's notes in it 😂 particular fave is 'do we do this?' #gdpr

Now that the brilliant @mollymath has galvanised a whole new set of #grimgraph hunters, I'm looking forward to seeing more truly horrible examples shared on here. Here's a cracker to get things started!

@mollymath @paulrouke And I’m loving that the 14ft cat still lives on! That’s one of my favourite examples ever and I still use it in my #dataviz training

Wow. Am especially loving the instruction "Don't say we already do what GDPR requires"! twitter.com/becket/status/…

Also, £1.79 is 82.9% cheaper than £10.45 so we’re looking at a rounding error here too. Triple fail! #mathsfail

Bar graphs are hard to get wrong, unless you make them 3D of course. But somehow @degiroeu have made a hideous #grimgraph out of this one. And it undervalues the point they’re making too - double fail! (Thanks to @albertoapardo for sharing)

A lovely illustration of how truncating lines on a chart can mislead, and in turn lead our brains to underestimate a serious issue #grimgraph twitter.com/L__Macfarlane/…

I’m a few days late in sharing this, but here’s a brilliant #grimgraph (if that’s not an oxymoron) for all Remainers to enjoy! Thanks for the share @notabbott - I absolutely LOVE this use of the dreaded pie chart => twitter.com/spaceangel1964…

@TMWData @sallyschu @Ausriuke @mollymath @CatherineShaw15 @sophclutterham @t30d0ra Don’t forget @Yuliya_PFF and @isobelfreeman too - they pre-date the twitter account but are still awesome past TMW #datawomen! 💪🏻
