| Does anyone know if this can be integrated with tensorboard.

|
| It was ok. Kind of lost interest when I saw the actual result.
| You can't smooth the data, so often times it's hard to tell
| what's going on.
|
| Here's the awful script. It's specific to my own naming
| conventions, so it probably won't work for you. But the same
| idea would work: just parse the tensorboard data and spit it
| out as csv.

| I also ran into a bug where multiple different datapoint types
| were getting merged into one. (It wasn't due to the csv code;
| the actual CSVs are fine.) I.e. the rows in the csv had a
| certain column that had a certain value, but in hiplot that
| column was nowhere to be found.
|

| I deployed an example here: https://hiplot-subsim-demo.now.sh
|
| Notice that the "run" column shows up in the data, but not in
| hiplot.

| Thanks for the feedback, we'll fix this.

| Edit: Just saw your name. _Holy shit_ , it's Mike Bostock.

| On a side tangent, I find it crazy that the New York Times for

| Mike Bostock (mbostock in this thread), D3.js is awesome!

| Jeremy's here at Observable, too!
