Hans Rosling: No some-more tedious data: TEDTalks


www.ted.com With a play as well as coercion of a sportscaster, statistics guru Hans Rosling uses an extraordinary latest display tool, Gapminder, to debunk multiform myths about world development. Rosling is highbrow of general illness during Sweden’s Karolinska Institute, as well as founder of Gapminder, a nonprofit which brings vital global data to life. (Recorded Feb 2006 in Monterey, CA.)

    People like him should lead the world. Not those pretty-faced Wall street motherfuckers now in the White house.

    The world CAN be saved. But we need to do it SCIENTIFICALLY. Religion should not be encouraged.

    Are “these ideas worth spreading” not worth spreading in HD?

    Interesante, y habla inglés de p*ta madre. Por mucho que diga algún pardillo, es más, precisamente por el fuerte acento sueco los hispano-hablantes podemos comprenderlo.
    Ahora vayamos al análisis. En un momento se refleja la evolución mundial y relacionada de la renta y la esperanza de vida. Es alucinante como en los años ochenta los países de África y América Latina van hacia abajo y a la izquierda gracias a las políticas neoliberales. O cómo Cuba está a la cabeza de América.

    @pilatech Don’t worry, these old Swedes are masterful statisticians. Unfortunately TED doesn’t allow much more than 20 minutes, so he doesn’t get to break up the statistics in detail as he does in longer lectures.

    I was listening to Hans yesterday in Seattle and had a good discussion with him and Steve Balmer – these are two extremely bright, still very humble, guys and I wish we had more of these kind of persons in the world. If you have a chance to speak or listening to Hans Rosling – pls do it and you will learn a lot.
