Question for science/math/statistics twitter:
Is the y-axis in this graph on @maddow last night considered logarithmic? The distance from 10-100 is the same as 100-100.
And if so, what is the use of that as opposed to having the y-axis to scale (is that even the term?)?
Thx!

I’m also really annoyed that neither axis is labeled, but whatever.
