I have a set of scripts I wrote in 2016 that aimed to analyze my posts over the years and hopefully offered up some insights. I’ve updated them for 2017 but rather than posting every single visualization I thought it would be more valuable to highlight the ones that seemed the most relevant and interesting.

  I like the concept of word clouds since with a quick glance you're able to get a sense of the topic. In this case it's definitely leaning more on the tech side as well as high level software development concepts.
