The UN Children’s Fund (UNICEF) on Friday strongly condemned the looting of vital humanitarian supplies from Al Bashair Hospital in the Sudanese capital, Khartoum, warning that the theft puts thousands of malnourished children and mothers at risk.

Among the stolen supplies were 2,200 cartons of ready-to-use therapeutic food – a crucial treatment for children suffering from severe acute malnutrition, a life-threatening condition characterized by severe weight loss and muscle wasting.

Also stolen were iron and folic acid supplements for pregnant and lactating women, as well as midwife kits and primary healthcare supplies meant for mothers, newborns and children.

Many visual models have been conceived and identified in the past several years, but their production is difficult for non-technical users and coding knowledge and a significant amount of time is still required to master the libraries and the tools that allow to create them.

What makes RAWGraphs different from other data visualization tools?

  1. No fee and no registration required. RAWGraphs is open and free for everybody

[...]

  1. RAWGraphs doesn’t store data.

Even though RAWGraphs is a web app, the data you insert will be processed only by the web browser. No server-side operations or storages are performed, no one will see, touch or copy your data.

  1. Open outputs optimized for your design process.

RAWGraphs allows you to export your visualizations in .svg. [...]

I learned about it from this article: https://gijn.org/stories/four-free-cutting-edge-investigative-data-tools/

In particular, it was described as follows:

While excellent visualization tools such as DataWrapper and Flourish are frequently used in published investigations, reporters often need simple, fast graphical depictions of their data during the reporting process. In addition to guiding your understanding of complex data as you gather it, it’s often helpful to have a simple bar chart, matrix plot, or bubble chart to show your editor or a potential source.

Pooja Dantewadia, data journalist at Realtor.com and a former graphics reporter at The Los Angeles Times, said the open source RAWGraphs web app is not only ideal for briefings and brainstorms, but is also useful for rapid chart choices and published graphics on deadline.

RAWGraphs “is amazing in terms of quickly turning data into visuals,” Dantewadia noted. “It’s great if you want quick analysis of data, and to quickly see what kind of chart would be most appropriate, so your editor can quickly see what the data is showing. It’s great for brainstorming. And you don’t even have to sign up — that’s how quick it is.”

The app includes 30 chart models, from Sankey diagrams to heatmaps, and its Youtube channel offers helpful tutorials on how to build and export each one. According to the website, data you upload to the tool should be secure because “the data you insert will be processed only by your web browser.”

If somehow we didn't before, we probably will now with the trade war and changes in manufacturing

I don't have any resources on hand, but I would think so. There are a number of infrastructure and housing projects in the works, and (experienced) software engineers seem to be in demand everywhere

PoorlyDrawnLines comics are like that, they're silly and simple. I've seen better ones, this just happened to be recent

What I found slightly funny about this one was that 'shooting all the bullets out' is how it works in games if you want to make a weapon useless
