Well, Twitter's no longer public so they won't benefit from any long term stock price appreciation. I wonder if there's any other bonus structure in place, or if Elon plans to cut everything to the bone.
Since multiple chart libraries are on HN's first page right now, thought I'd ask a question. Working on a project that requires a very specific chart type, which almost no chart frameworks provide. Anyone know of a library that offers:
- VERTICAL 100% stacked area chart
- Images can be used as background for each series
- Dynamic - mouseover displays information when hovering over a slice of the chart
The only thing I can find is this [1] but it seems to lack key features. Currently I've resorted to building a custom chart in SVG with js but it's pretty rough.
Yep +1 - just swap xAxis and yAxis and you get really close, and echarts has lots of customization. I just don't think you'll get images for a background with it.
I've seen the other responses already contain ready solutions, however in general, if you're in need of custom/non-standard graphs, then D3.js is a great library for constructing them, providing many common building blocks and a declarative API.
D3 could be the right tool for this. When I first used D3 years ago, it seemed so incredibly overkill. But maybe it's just right for something like this project, with these specific requirements.

When I set it to 15 mph it feels like a really nice screensaver.
Which, really -- turning this into a screensaver for mac/pc that skipped the sound and slowly/gently cycled through days and seasons would actually be really nice! At least on my M1 MacBook Air it seems to be pretty low CPU usage.
I knew two people who quit after two weeks. One after being called to find out why he wasn’t at work. On a Sunday.
I ended up on a short contract and think I understand why. I also understand why Amazon employees are notorious for taking up the entire sidewalk like nobody else is there. Trauma.
I recently did a contract with a company in the logistics (warehouse/delivery) business for a product you've heard of. Their turnover rate is over 100% every year. The industry is crazy.
The person who told me "autistic people can't work for RAND" was hired by Amazon. I'd blacklisted them by that point -- I don't like when folks treat a good faith interview like a free consulting session.
The company culture reminds me of some kind of suicide cult - treating a job interview like a free consulting session might work if you're looking for warehouse workers with teachable and replaceable skills, but when you apply that goldfish galaxy brain mentality to interacting with folks who have a buck twenty five plus IQ and more esoteric knowledge, it is unsurprising that mistakes will happen, those mistakes will be costly... and that those mistakes may increase in frequency.
>I'm guessing the warehouse biz has the most effect on this stat, but still. Wow.
I don't know off the top of my head, they sell a lot of servers.
(I was thinking the other day about how in my attempts to avoid Google I often involuntarily use their stuff -- it's why my old VPN was hosted on Digital Ocean, because I have no warm feelings for either.)
Google has had house ads for its own products on the search homepage since at least 2010. I'd like to see a screenshot of the "banner ad" claimed by OP. Text ads on Google's homepage are nothing new. I don't see a banner ad on the homepage at the moment, I see a text ad for "Learn about the latest innovations coming to Google Search"
