Show HN: iMessage Wrapped – your year in texts

This is very cool. Some minor nits, since you seem to be open to feedback here: 1) Received (not Recieved) 2) represents (not repersents) 3) I have a random late night buddy because I sent no texts between 12 and 3am. 4) The "Good morning sunshine" block tells me my first morning text was sent at 13:39 AM on average, which is not a real time (should be just 13:39 or 1:39 PM) and not in the morning--which further suggests you're taking my overall average text time and not my average morning text time. This might be clearer as "You sent your first text at" (skipping "morning"). 5) I got no days of the week data and no map data.

Once again, these are minor nits and didn't detract from my enjoyment at all. Just thought you might appreciate the chance to fix some easy errors.

Thank you! Appreciate the feedback and glad you enjoyed. Spelling errors are my bane - I'll make sure to fix those.

And yep, I think fixing some of those time errors is where I'll start. I feel that pandas is better optimized for handling dates than times, which explains some of my wonky work arounds.

Days of the week is also interesting - did you have a full year of imessages on your computer or do you auto-delete after a certain period?

The map is puzzling and I'm working to debug. It seems that it works occasionally on reload and that it works consistently if all fade-in animations are removed from page.

I put this together in the last two weeks, so it's definitely been rushed. Thanks again for the feedback!
