Re: Software galaxies
#82Navigating the galaxies is frustratingly hard. One finger touch moves forward, but it makes very hard to touch a point and see what it is. I keep selecting something past it, especially for large dots, which I'm curious to see what they are. Rotating the device changes the direction but it's hard to point towards a specific star. On the good side it's very nice to look at. I wish there would be something as fast as t…

#87This looks very nice, but a 2D visualization might have been more practical. For example, the fact that the dot size represents the total number of dependents is obscured by the fact that the dot sizes are also a function of camera distance.
What's used to compute distance? I couldn't find any legend or description (mobile). Edit Ah, noticed the bottom-right about: https://github.com/anvaka/pm/tree/master/about#software-gala... Distance is seemingly arbitrary, decided by clustering algorithm.

#89I love these kind of things: - https://github.com/acaudwell/Gource : generate a beautiful and organic videos from git repositorios. - https://code.google.com/archive/p/codeswarm/ : similar to Gource . - https://skyline.github.com : it is dead, like as Atom .
Hell yeah. In our department we setup Gource to render out a video every midnight and pimped it out with a bunch of overlays and profile pics to show project progress and to visualize who worked on what. Shown endlessly looping on an iPad in front of the department, so no contributions are forgotten, especially the ones by interns who participated only a short while.
