Am guessing others would have covered this already, but a AAP + CONG alliance would've beaten the BJP. AAP won 22 seats on its own (based on vote count at 6-30 PM). But combined with CONG, they could've won 14 more seats, giving them 36 seats and a majority in Delhi assembly.

Did the flipped/retained seats for the Delhi election. With big wins for one party, the flipped/retained map doesn't really tell us much. But don't see many newsrooms doing the map with the 'hatched' pattern, so just thought I'd put mine up.

Oh hey Matt, yeah those channels can get really loud, which is why they're all on mute in our newsroom :) (You can see the monitor with vidgrid below). First came across vidgrid during lockdown after someone in BBC's Delhi office recommended it. Will definitely give you a follow on the other site :)

@Chidam333 Oh yeah, you can tile browser windows. But clicking on that link opens up that 2x2 grid automatically, so it reduces the initial friction. Think people in newsrooms or newsjunkies who aren't that tech-savvy are the ones who could benefit from this.

As you can see from the video, if you compare this winter to winters from the last 50 years, this winter is warmer than average, but there were other winters that were still warmer. A more advanced analysis would tell us more though. Data taken from GHCND

something very customised, you will still need professional designers and developers. But a majority of the work done now in data journalism can be done with AI tools we have *today*. Think it's great that the ability to build cool things has been democratised like this. FIN
