Beware data bullshit

Trying to teach the habit of digging deeper
Bullshit = when you create non-sense bc you don't care
Calling bullshit = even on lies, injustice
Clean the information bullshit around us, similarly to physical environment
We all create bullshit = we babble to look credible > be bullshit-neutral
Metaphor: It often happens when you interpret or create viz, since you think you understand
They critise something similar to Tufte's chartjunk
You don't need to understand the black box, algorithm, to call bullshit – just understand what is getting in (source) and out (isn't it a bit too surprised)
Publication bias – you only publish interesting and expected results – false positives. Desk-drawer effect.
How to call bullshit? Make it ad absurdum. Attack the argument, not people. Make a dialogue. Give people benefit of the doubt.
Self-bullshit is the worst!
