Here are a few facts about yours truly
Roughly 10% of all men are colour blind, which somehow equates to about 50% of commentors on my public work. The colours most impacted by colour blindness are red and green, which can wreak havoc for any KPI analysis. To help see that havoc, here is a look at Christmas songs that have made the billboard top 100 since 1958 And here's what this looks like to a person who has protanopia color blindness (typically the most acute variety (shout-out to David for the translation)) Not exactly festive. But most notably, take in how impossible it is to distinguish the red from the green. If this were a KPI chart, you'd get nowhere fast. Alas, here are some tips for making a colour blind approachable dashboard.
It's lost some festivity, sure, but it's also gotten to be a bit more palatable (sic.) to the 10% of men who we're having no fun earlier.
