What Hacker News says
8 sourcesI like how you can change the Cascading Style Sheets pretty much on the click of a button. I am a bit behind the time, but I do remember Square's Cube to be good for time-series.

Those can be embedded into dashboards
In Cyclotron: A web application for constructing dashboardsI was looking for https://github.com/square/cube with the keywords 'square cube' and didn't hit it in the top 100 results. Adding a third keyword 'series' didn't help either.
Is that page perhaps out of the scope of the index?
When I search for the first two with the Algolia search I get a hit in the top 3.
Also, what do you think about indexing the page screenshots too :)?
In Show HN: Search in HN ContentIn addition to this helpful guide, note that statsd / graphite both spring some unfortunate surprises on new users, e.g., graphite changing your data across retention rates and time scales [0], graphite changing your data at different plot widths (?!) [1], statsd believing that only count and time data deserve to be aggregated [2], etc.
I have no alternative to suggest, however. Perhaps Cube [3], but unclear if it has any user community.

In SLOPE: A proposal for better time representationI've been itching to display data from Cube [1] in the Terminal. This might be a way in.

If someone would suggest a reliable, free source of realtime data that won't fall under peak load from HN, I'd be happy to replace the random walk data source with something more realistic. (For example, stock data, wind measurements, etc.) I added a sine to the random walk to make it a bit more interesting, but these visualizations are much more compelling with real data.
