Data has become a modern buzzword. Data analysis, often including the terms big data/machine learning/deep learning, has become a popular tool for clickbait shenanigans. Since the data and methodology is rarely included with these types of content, it is impossible for others to verify the conclusions and learn from the data.

I intend to change that. With funding from GitHub Sponsors, I will be able to take the my data analysis and AI tooling to the next level, and create some really crazy-yet-cool things.

All my data and code for getting the data, processing the data, and visualizing the data, is open source for anyone to reference and improve upon.
