       | for that language. The goal of Ohayo is to enable people to do
       | data science at the speed of voice.

       | Also, Cleveland rocks... Ohayo!

       | I had the same idea (to sort social media posts on a chart by
       | time and points) in 2014. I called it "News 2D" at that time:

       | My Show HN was even similarly named. "Your Hacker News history
       | visualized":

       | I built out the interface for a while, but it did not get much
       | traction. And I also did not use it myself after a while, so I
       | shut it down.
       | 
       | I however then adapted this idea to visualize products and that
       | project is still alive:

         | but dope anyways.
