big middle finger to the universe, but especially to the colleague who made my bones hurt by pointing out that the `z` in `tar -xvzf` hasn’t been needed since version tar 1.15, released in 2004.

Population density thread because you and I both know you have nothing better to do.

Let's start with this cool way to visualize population density, by @undertheraedar. The height of each spike displays the population density in that location.
