It's a kind of magic

The kind of magic that gets you out of the woods.

This dataset wasn’t extracted by myself, I got it from @Magus. (who, AFAIK, just copy-pasted it from a time the data was simply public in the interface.) It used to bounce from a pastebin to the other, which made it pretty hard to track.

To evade the burden of thinking to bookmark it and pray it remains available, I’m posting it here once and for all.
