Smells of TikZ! Very nicely done.

#55Something else this could be useful for is in visualization of historical events on a common timeline.

People might not enjoy your 'joke', but you do have a very good point. When I looked at it the first time, the mouse problem didn't came up. I used my two fingers and like in the authors mind I just swiped to the left and the timeline moved as expected. After reading the comments, and seeing the 'mouse problem' I could see it in my minds eye how it 'breaks'. But seeing your comment I realised the web site only breaks…
I wouldn't call it a very good point. I'd call it, based in no small part on your response, a bias towards people who use MacBooks. It's unfortunate to see this attitude towards the very large segment of the internet-using population that are using "older" input devices (which are still much more practical for many use cases).
a bias towards people who use MacBooks.
and iPhones and iPads and android phones and kindle tablets and ....
Web traffic for some (most?) sites is already tipping over the half-mobile-usage direction (where "mobile" means "doesn't have a built in full-sized keyboard").

#57I can't handle the day/month/year syntax
Fork it.
You are right I should do something rather than just complaining. Maybe somebody (or me) could do a patch that allows YYYY-MM-DD dates with dashes. Or YYYY-MM to specify a month.

Exactly, its not just MacBooks. I used a Lenovo recently that has multitouch and scrolls wonderfully with two fingers. At work, I use a multitouch trackpad instead of a mouse.

That is gorgeous, I love the design.
Re: Show HN: Life – A timeline of important events in (your) life
#60I'd love to see this as a zoomable timeline, where less important events are less visible when zoomed out, so that the timeline itself is fully visible at 100%. Draggable timeline in a max 100% w/h window would fix the scrolling weirdness for folks who care, and would also be usable on a touch device, but I think the interaction should always feel full screen, regardless of where you are in the timeline. Love this id…
How do you envision designating important events - or should the app determine those automatically?
