A sizable chunk of Russia’s wealth has been siphoned offshore by corrupt politicians and well-connected businessmen. We wanted to know where it went — so we started hunting. OCCRP and its partners trawled land records, corporate registries, and offshore leaks to come up with this database of assets belonging to key figures close to Vladimir Putin. Proving the ownership of yachts, mansions, and planes is not easy, since their owners often take pains to keep them hidden. We only included assets in this database if our researchers uncovered clear evidence of their ownership. We’ve also included assets owned by family members and known proxies of the figures we investigated. Explore what we found below, and check back regularly for new additions.
We expose people to information and ideas from all sides of the political spectrum so they can better understand the world — and each other. Our balanced news coverage, media bias ratings, civil dialogue opportunities, and technology platform are available for everyone and can be integrated by schools, nonprofits, media companies, and more.
We provide Media Bias Ratings for over 800 media outlets and writers, so you can easily identify different perspectives. Learn how AllSides rates media bias, or learn about the different types of media bias.

Virgo is an easy-to-use open-source spectrometer and radiometer based on Python and GNU Radio (GR) that is conveniently applicable to any radio telescope working with a GR-supported software-defined radio (SDR). In addition to data acquisition, Virgo also carries out automated analysis of the recorded samples, producing an averaged spectrum, a calibrated spectrum, a dynamic spectrum (waterfall), a time series (power vs time) and a total power distribution plot.
Lastly, an important set of utilities is provided to observers, making the package for a great tool for planning (radio) observations, estimating the system sensitivity of an instrument, and many more.
Analyze a company's investment profile by looking at pertinent news, stock price patterns, and overall sentiment.
Has a REST API. Free tier offers 1 API key, 60 requests per minute, 1000 requests per day. The premium tier isn't too bad ($25us/month) if you need to heavily use their service.
The Personal Genome Project, initiated in 2005, is a vision and coalition of projects across the world dedicated to creating public genome, health, and trait data. Sharing data is critical to scientific progress, but has been hampered by traditional research practices. The PGP approach is to invite willing participants to publicly share their personal data for the greater good.
We’re publishing reports by Congress’s think tank, the Congressional Research Service, which provides valuable insight and non-partisan analysis of issues of public debate. These reports are already available to the well-connected — we’re making them available to everyone for free.
EleutherAI is a grassroots AI research group aimed at democratizing and open sourcing AI research. Multiple projects and usable training corpora. F/OSS model called GPT-Neo.
Several spinoff projects to investigate.
Do you want to get threat intelligence data about a file, an IP or a domain? Do you want to get this kind of data from multiple sources at the same time using a single API request? Can be integrated easily in your stack of security tools to automate common jobs. Composed of analyzers that can be run to retrieve data from external sources or to generate intel from internal analyzers (like Yara or Oletools).
Devoted to media archaeology, that is, historical research into forgotten, obsolete, neglected or otherwise dead media technologies. Depending on our understanding of “media” — one of the questions we’ll discuss — these might include forms as diverse as typewriters, phonographs, Polaroid photography, prison tattoo codes and the Victorian language of floral bouquets, outmoded video game platforms, computing systems, and musical instruments, smoke signals, scent organs, shorthand notation, and rocket mail delivery. Our premise is that understanding these things can help us gain a better sense of the development, meaning and legacy of media technologies, now and in the future; our goal is to introduce students to the skills and resources necessary for producing rigorous research on such obsolete and obscure media. The course will include an exposure to scholarship in media archaeology; an intensive introduction to research methods; finding and exploring word, image, and sound archives; and the restoration of media artifacts to their deep social, cultural and personal context. The course stems from the premise that media archaeology is best undertaken, like any archaeological project, collaboratively: we will follow a hands-on research studio model commonly used in disciplines such as architecture or design.
Pyrgg is an easy-to-use synthetic random graph generator written in Python which supports various graph file formats including DIMACS .gr files. Pyrgg has the ability to generate graphs of different sizes and is designed to provide input files for broad range of graph-based research applications, including but not limited to testing, benchmarking and performance-analysis of graph processing frameworks. Pyrgg target audiences are computer scientists who study graph algorithms and graph processing frameworks.

Useful projects and resources for COVID-19 (2019 novel Coronavirus).
A repository for monitoring attack vectors mentioned in the billion-dollar disinformation campaign to reelect the president in 2020. Includes some Python code for analyzing the data.
Twint is an advanced Twitter scraping tool written in Python that allows for scraping Tweets from Twitter profiles without using Twitter's API.
Twint utilizes Twitter's search operators to let you scrape Tweets from specific users, scrape Tweets relating to certain topics, hashtags & trends, or sort out sensitive information from Tweets like e-mail and phone numbers. I find this very useful, and you can get really creative with it too.
Twint also makes special queries to Twitter allowing you to also scrape a Twitter user's followers, Tweets a user has liked, and who they follow without any authentication, API, Selenium, or browser emulation.
Does not require you to have a Twitter account.
The Living Library seeks to provide actionable knowledge on governance innovation. We identify for our core audience the “signal in the noise” by curating research, best practices, points of view, new tools, and developments. Spans topic areas from artificial intelligence, open data, and blockchain, to citizen science, open innovation, and civic technology. The platform has an international purview, with insights drawn from across the globe and relevant to a diversity of sectors. Research-based knowledge offerings. Appears to have some up-to-date data archived in some contexts.

Members contribute to and benefit from a uniquely dynamic knowledge base of case histories, treatment insights and rationales, clinical trials, and patient outcomes and experiences.
TSN acts as a nexus between researchers and synesthetes. Wherever possible, we offer users with Synesthesia the opportunity to verify their condition through the use of assessment tools, but the focus of TSN from an academic standpoint is to offer researchers a way to safely be in touch with potential participants and valuable sources of information which can then be evaluated and assessed to the standards of a specific project.
