Chaos

Make clean datasets dirty

What it does

Most publicly available datasets are pre-cleaned, making it difficult to practice data cleaning and management skills with authentic, raw data. To bridge this gap, we developed Chaos—a web application that generates messy datasets from clean data.

    Hey HN - our team wants to open source a project called NASTY (NASTY Abstract Syntax Tree thingY) that we built for ourselves. NASTY was built to maintain testable/composable data pipelines. Our team was ripping our hair out trying to maintain dbt/SQL scripts across different data warehouses (Redshift, BigQuery, Postgres, Snowflake) on top of ever shifting data foundations maintained by our customer's internal data teams. NASTY is the result of our learnings from field experience. We wanted to write abstractions so that we could reuse code. We wanted to bundle those abstractions…

    I realized that the PDF engines of modern desktop browsers (PDFium and PDF.js) support JavaScript with enough I/O primitives to make a basic game like Tetris. It was a bit tricky to find a union of features that work in both engines, but in the end it turns out that showing/hiding annotation "fields" works well to make monochrome pixels, and keyboard input can be achieved by typing in a text input box. All in all it's quite janky but a nice reminder of how general purpose PDF scripting can be. The linked PDF is all ASCII so you can just open it in a text editor, or have a look at…
