I really like the circular packing variant of it from D3.js (https://d3-graph-gallery.com/circularpacking.html). Its usage in CodeScene shows how powerful this visualization can be:

How is this making the front page of HN? It’s total misinformation. The defacement had nothing to do with the riots themselves. Total BS from a random untrustworthy source.


Allowing people to suddenly buy a symbol that used to mean the source could be trusted (at least more than now)… what could go wrong


Did it ever mean they could be trusted though? I think it’s healthy for everyone to distrust any and all tweets.


In terms of factual information, no; in terms of identity verification, most could be trusted.


The person behind the checkmark was a real person/entity and whatever they said, true or disinformation - they owned it. That is the difference.

If Candice Owens had said something detestable, at least I knew that I was being triggered by the actual troll.


ASPnet webforms kept the state serialized in a hidden field in on the page


Right, but the reason it was kept in a hidden field was that it would then go to the server on form submission and the server would persist it across requests, if I recall correctly – haven't done ASP.NET in more than a decade.

Either way, that was a form of hydration itself I suppose, the server would send this state value to the client and the client would hydrate its view to match the state.


I had to scroll down to the bottom to understand what Qwik was, because it suddenly compares it with react, and I know what react is.

“Framework reimagined for the edge”

that does not tell me anything about what Qwik is. It’s not even a proper sentence, is it? A framework for what? Is it software? A methodology? Some device? No clue.


I understand the sentence. My guess is this page is targeting people who understand and need what it is selling. It’s probably not ready for mainstream, so maybe that’s why they use that language? Just a bunch.


If I'm in a meeting where someone suggests using opaque technical language to deliberately reduce reach... I'm voting that down :)

Use simple language that everyone understands. You might gain some converts.


that file is incredible :)


100%, and also how TIL about the Swedish Rhapsody

The partial decoding is also interesting for another case, I think: polymorphism. The OneOf implementation in go protobuf is ugly, but this trick could make it bareable. I'll have to explore further :)


Here is a OneOf Go implementation I wrote that hopefully is less ugly and is significantly faster: https://github.com/splunk/exp-lazyproto#oneof-fields


Yep, got bit by this exact behavior too, returning a typed nil error as the error interface. The check for err == nil said false, although we were returning a nil typed error...


My mother's family name is "Lazare". it's pretty common isn't it?


Humm, not where I come from (France). And it's actually my first name !
