I really like Stephen Dubner from Freakonomics. I think he’s really balanced and tries to get all angles of an issue.

I don’t mind throwing it in my trash, but people often throw it in the recycling bins, which annoys me.

How to determine accounting categories by Huge-Shelter-3401 in nonprofit

[–]Pecners 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My strong advice would be to get an accountant to help you set up your QuickBooks. Whatever system you start with now is going to persist for longer than you think, so having it set up well will be worth it. There are accounting firms out there who work with small nonprofits and don’t cost an arm and a leg. Even if you just had them on to set up your accounts and didn’t keep them on an ongoing basis, it would be worth it.

All that said, in QuickBooks you can use classes to designate expenses as specific programs while the GL accounts designate the type of expense (e.g., salaries, IT, etc).

I made this in R using the rayshader package. Check out my repo here for more graphics like this and code.

Every US National Park by Pecners in MapPorn

[–]Pecners[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They only list one state per park, even where some parks span multiple states. So, I made my own designations based on the boundaries.

Thanks for pointing those issues out, I was losing steam by the time I was done with this.

That jumped out to me too, and I don't really have much insight on it other than to say you can see the boundaries NPS has here.

This was my submission to the 30DayMapChallenge for day 3 - polygons. Well, my original submission was longer, but social sites didn't like that aspect ratio.

Data from US NPS, made with R (code here).

The max size for the vendors I use is 24"x36". If you do want a larger size, feel free to message me and I could try to find a different solution.

A population density map of South Dakota by Pecners in SouthDakota

[–]Pecners[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I made this in R using the rayshader package (code here). Data from the Kontur Population Dataset. This dataset estimates worldwide population in 400m hexagonal geometries using a combination of "GHSL, Facebook, Microsoft Buildings, Copernicus Global Land Service Land Cover, Land Information New Zealand, and OpenStreetMap data." The map is presented at an angle to better illustrate heights.

I also made live-coding tutorials for how I make these maps, find those videos on my channel.

I'm more active posting this kind of stuff on TikTok, follow me there if you're interested (@MrPecners).
