Show HN: Post-mortem of an Internet Accident

1) A blog post is not a Show HN topic: https://news.ycombinator.com/showhn.html
2) If you're plotting a density scatterplot in ggplot2, you must used a reduced alpha, otherwise there is no indication of density. (e.g. the conclusion of "Almost 90% of our repositories have less than 20,000 stars and 20 languages." is not apparent)
3) Why did you use a "repository index" for the second chart? Why did you sort it descending? Why are you using a scatter plot instead of a histogram?
1) Sorry for not following the Guideline, It just went out of my mind. Lesson learned, won't repeat.
Actually this is first time I'm doing something practically with data, so gradually I'll try to learn things and minimize my mistakes.
2) Yes, you're right. I'll change it.
3) Honestly speaking, I was getting the X-axis ruler all mixed up because I was plotting 'repository name' on X-axis. So as a workaround I made a new column of digits, that fits in the image.
