Fun to look at! Since I also had a mini project, that utilized this data. Sadly, haven't maintained it in awhile. It's a Show HN on my profile if you're curious.

I hope you had a better time with ingesting the data than I did :)

I actually built this primarily with chatGPT o1.

One of the things LLMS are really good at is writing scripts for processing and pairing down data. I wanna do a blog post talking about how did some of this, maybe coming up!
