Interesting list. I geocoded the data and created an interactive searchable map of the sites - https://ramadda.org/repository/a/dotgov

OP here. There are clearly a number of DEI related awards in the list. But lots and lots of non-DEI related awards that show up solely based on a stupid text search. e.g.

CHEMISTS HAVE A GREAT UNDERSTANDING OF THE REACTIVITY OF SMALL MOLECULES IN SOLUTION IN A HOMOGENOUS ENVIRONMENT

Ted Cruz recently released a database of "woke" DEI NSF awards. Exploring the data it is clear they just did a search with terms "homo" and "hetero" and "race". Some of their "woke" DEI awards include-

CRII: NETS: RUI: FUNDAMENTALS OF WIRELESS NETWORKING USING BATTERY-FREE DEVICES IN INHOMOGENEOUS ENVIRONMENTS

HETEROMOLECULAR INTERFACE DESIGN FOR BETTER MULTIFERROIC MOLECULAR SPINTRONICS

BUT ARE IMPORTANT PROBES FOR ASTRONOMY SINCE THEY CAN BE TRACED DIRECTLY BACK TO THEIR ORIGIN

I use (and also develop) RAMADDA's SeeSV package- https://ramadda.org/repository/a/seesv

A Java based package for data wrangling that reads in all sorts of formats, over 300+ commands for transmogrifying the data and a number of output formats. There is an interactive interface provided by RAMADDA and a stand-alone command line release.

Interesting data. I grabbed the CSV, cleaned it up and created an interactive searchable map with RAMADDA - https://ramadda.org/repository/a/fossil_locations

For me the biggest win in pages with lots of images is the img loading=lazy flag- https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Performance/Laz...

This only loads the image when it scrolls into view

IBonds are a no brainer. A great rate, no risk and few constraints. I've got them for myself, my wife, my kids and my LLC

Yeah, with the possible connection to the Spanish Flu epidemic this gives one pause when considering long covid and covid's neurological effects in general

I too had a problem (maybe same email with multiple accounts). You have to get the form stamped with a "medallion stamp", not just a notary. So check your bank if they have someone that can do this

Domestic use (lawns, showers, toilets, etc) is a small percent of the overall water use in the west. For example, in Colorado 89% of the water usage is for agriculture and only 7% is municipal and industrial (https://waterknowledge.colostate.edu/water-management-admini...). So, we can rip up as many lawns and install as many low flow toilets and it is barely a drop in the proverbial bucket.

Here is a web page I put together a while ago that has categorized links to the Netflix category pages - https://ramadda.org/repository/a/browse_netflix

I forgot where I got the original list of links
