The money for this is not available. It is an ideal that cannot be attained.

I don't think the colors are for aesthetic purposes. They describe meaning for how large and fast the objects are.

So all you said was there are B players for specific companies, but they might be A players in a different one. Fucking brilliant.

by hawleyal 12y ago
I don't think that is possible, given how many different colors this generates.

Most users do not grok tables. Most developers do because they are easy to automatically generate based on lists of things with common attributes. Tabular data is a very exclusive set of information in which columns can be aggregated to sum

I work on many business applications. I find developers make tables as a first recourse because they are easy and don't require thoughtful design of the most usable way to view and interact with data. Edit: Also the example you showed

Almost like how Youtube ignores copyright and trademark laws.

Completely disagree. People at Google acted in a ridiculous manner. This is atrocious.

Bad article title.
