DataCrayon··on Show HN: I Wrote a Book on Data Analysis with Rust Notebooks
Definitely hugged to death - I wasn't prepared for that amount of traffic!
DataCrayon··on Google users locked out after 15 years' use
Who do you recommend instead of Google Domains?
DataCrayon··on Netflix Android and iOS Studio Apps now powered by Kotlin Multiplatform
From another comment below it seems Kotlin Multilpatform is for multi-platform libraries, not UI!

I like it!

For those interested, I'm working on a D3 book on how to create unique visualisations with D3 https://datacrayon.com/shop/product/visualisation-with-d3/

DataCrayon··on YouTube Channels to Level Up Your Programming Skills
If you wake up one day and decide, "I want to learn Evolutionary Algorithms with Python", then you're in luck... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ee1-idlHUzg
DataCrayon··on Show HN: I visualised the co-occurrence of origin and variety in coffee beans
Thanks for the feedback, paired with my other reply below, I'll be working on the presentation soon. I'm not a fan of the Bootstrap "jumbotron" for the banners myself either so I'll look for something else.
DataCrayon··on Show HN: I visualised the co-occurrence of origin and variety in coffee beans
Thanks for this - you're right , the ToC links to nothing at the moment. I was sharing the visualisation itself. I'm going to add a condition that greys out or removes the ToC in these cases so no one ends up trying it in multiple browsers!

I am sharing a visualisation - and the book which shows you how to make one is advertised on the same page. Is Show HN: not for showing something you made yourself?
DataCrayon··on Ask HN: How to launch a side project after a startup failure?
Although I haven't used it myself, I've read this approach a few times on HN:

If you can come up with a good solution to an existing problem, perhaps an app of some sort, create a landing page for it using some mock-ups (e.g. using Sketch, another thing I haven't used!) along with a mailing list subscription to indicate their interest... if it picks up, you know it's worth dedicating resources to the problem. Then when you're ready to release the software you know you have some potential users/customers - they could even have a trial of early versions and give valuable feedback.

There are downsides, of course, e.g. giving away your idea to people who may be able to implement it quicker than you do - but they won't have your mailing list!

DataCrayon··on Twister OS: Make Raspberry Pi Look Like Windows or macOS
Thanks, not heard of Tint2 or Polybar before, will check them out.
DataCrayon··on Single Objective Problems with Python
Nice work and good job getting into GECCO! I think my real curiosity is actually off-topic, e.g. did you leave academia, and why!
DataCrayon··on Creativity Changes as We Age
Have you found that people are willing to make the investment at that price?
DataCrayon··on Show HN: How attractive is your website? Check using Visual Mind AI
https://datacrayon.com gets a visual appearance score of 90, but a visual clarity score of 20. "60% of users are expected to like your site"[1].... interesting

DataCrayon··on Twister OS: Make Raspberry Pi Look Like Windows or macOS
Looks great! Are you aware of anything that gives a macOS look-and-feel to Ubuntu Desktop?
DataCrayon··on Single Objective Problems with Python
I've come across it during literature searches but I'm no expert!
