Nice. Is the data points y-axis normalized by total amount of comments at that time?

Edit: Nvm seems like absolute count if you click the graph.

Looking at this makes me think HN is peak design aesthetic.

Really cool! Where would you get the data for something like this? Is it open, or its scraped?

The colors of the lines of the big graph are inverted compared to the smaller ones.

Love this, seems to struggle with newly indexed words. Will try again when the FP load is gone

Are those raw numbers or adjusted for active users at given point in time?

I'd be interested in "google ngram for hacker news" instead

What is missing from it? I've used ngrams as well and I this was partly inspired by that.

But can it discover new trends without having to type the keywords?
