Check out mosaic from uwdata which works on top of Observable plot

Or plotly-resampler which works on top of plotly and uses the rust package tsdownsample to aggregate on the 4pixels per pixel shown level (to make antialias work)

the grammar of graphics approach really is a great abstraction, and I'd love to see xy work in that direction

Check out https://github.com/ila/openivm which implements a very large scope of aggregations as incremental operations in an SQL-to-SQL compiler, and extension for duckdb that automatically maintains a materialized view

I can recommend Pixi for this. https://pixi.prefix.dev/latest/

pixi init && pixi add wget

And youre ready to go, everything confined to the venv within the directory

you're joking because of the other frontpage story with Gemini 3 hallucinating hacker news 10 years in the future, but still lets keep the hallucinations to that page.

I agree. So many disparate solutions. The streaming sql primitives are by themselves good enough (e.g. `tumble`, `hop` or `session` windows), but the infrastructural components are always rough in real life use cases.

crossing fingers for solutions like `https://github.com/feldera/feldera` to be wrapped in a nice database, `https://materialize.com/` to solve their memory issues, or `https://clickhouse.com/docs/en/materialized-view` to solve reliable streaming consumption.

Various streaming processing frameworks often have domain specific languages with a lot of limitations of how to express aggregations and transformations.
