Project mention: Show HN: a Rust Based CLI tool 'imgcatr' for displaying images | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-04-16
While not CLI, I always look for cross platform image viewers and found https://github.com/woelper/oculante.
Had a few woes compiling it due to my laptops configuration, but once compiled it works with everything I would reasonably throw at it.

Project mention: Ask HN: What is the best software to visualize a graph with a billion nodes? | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-08-02
I had this question a few years back while working on a social network graph project and trying to render a multi-million node graph. Tried Ogma and it worked quite well but it became too slow when approaching the million. Ended up writing my own renderer in C++ and then Rust. Code here: https://github.com/zdimension/graphrust
Tested it up to 5M nodes, renders above 60fps on my laptop's iGPU and on my Pixel 7 Pro. Turns out, drawing lots of points using shaders is fast.
Though like everybody else here said you probably don't want to draw that many nodes. Create a lower LoD version of the graph and render it instead

Project mention: wxHexEditor — a Free Hex Editor / Disk Editor for Huge Files or Devices | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-05-18
ImHex Looks amazing, but I couldn't get it to work in my system last time I tried. Not a pre built version and not compiling it myself. So I wrote myself a simple hex viewer. Only a viewer, don't need an editor. All other hex editors that I could get to work on my system where really disappointing. Either they couldn't handle large files (>2GB), or they lacked features, like decoding the bytes at the current location as various integer types, had very cumbersome controls for navigation, or displayed important information like the current offset in uneditable labels (status bar) and even didn't give it enough room for large files so it got cut off! Did they never use their own program? Anyway, my viewer only has a terminal interface, so you can always select and copy any text it displays. Also has IMHO handy controls to jump around to absolute and relative offsets. See: https://github.com/panzi/rust-hox
