Hello visitors! Present punk is the idea that we are either currently living in a cyberpunk dystopia, or that we are transitioning into one.
The first purpose of this blog is to curate a collection of all the news stories today that prove this idea, from the latest corporate takeovers to the newest tech innovations.
The second purpose is to reckon with dystopia becoming true, and probe more deeply into the why’s and the what-can-we-do’s.
To make progress against the pressing problems the world faces, we need to be informed by the best research and data. Our World in Data makes this knowledge accessible and understandable, to empower those working to build a better world.

America’s most comprehensive dictionary of campaign finance jargon.
While browsing a variety of websites, I kept finding that the same financial metric can greatly vary per source and so do the financial statements reported while little information is given how the metric was calculated.
This is why I designed the FinanceToolkit, this is an open-source toolkit in which all relevant financial ratios (100+), indicators and performance measurements are written down in the most simplistic way allowing for complete transparency of the calculation method. This allows you to not have to rely on metrics from other providers and, given a financial statement, allow for efficient manual calculations. This leads to one uniform method of calculation being applied that is available and understood by everyone.
The Finance Toolkit is complimented very well with the Finance Database, a database that features 300.000+ symbols containing Equities, ETFs, Funds, Indices, Currencies, Cryptocurrencies and Money Markets. By utilising both, it is possible to do a fully-fledged competitive analysis with the tickers found from the FinanceDatabase inputted into the FinanceToolkit.
This list is inspired by awesome public datasets, but for real-time datasets and sources. Normally accessed via HTTP or Websockets.
The list is separated into Free and Paid and broken into subsections based on loose categories.

The aim of this database is explicitly not to provide up-to-date fundamentals or stock data as those can be obtained with ease (with the help of this database) by using FundamentalAnalysis or yfinance. Instead, it gives insights into the products that exist in each country, industry and sector and gives the most essential information about each product. With this information, you can analyse specific areas of the financial world and/or find that product that is hard to find.
