DEEP SCATTER

This library enables zoomable, animated scatterplots in the browser that scale over a billion points. It uses a custom quadtree format that only loads data when zooming to increase speed. The library also uses the Apache Arrow Feather format, which is quick to parse, compresses well, and can copy directly to the GPU without JavaScript transformation. It runs in completely static settings, making it possible to host million-point scatter plots over services such as GitHub Pages.

Laid-off tech workers are expanding their horizons and landing jobs in smaller and midsize firms, freelancing, and nontech companies. Many are now considering tech jobs outside the industry or with startups that are more aligned with their values. The job market remains strong, with low unemployment rates and growing technical services and software development sectors. Many companies that were previously unable to compete with big tech for workers are now able to hire again.
