This line chart displays the cumulative number of tech layoffs over time, with the x-axis representing timestamps and the y-axis showing the cumulative count formatted in billions. The data is loaded from a CSV file and parsed using d3.csv, with dates converted to JavaScript Date objects. The visualization is rendered as an SVG using d3.scaleTime, d3.scaleLinear, axis generators, and a d3.line generator with a curveBasis interpolation. Axis labels and a title are added as SVG text elements, styled through the accompanying CSS file.
