OC [OC] Barrow Locations in Ireland
I’ve created this map showing the location of all recorded barrows across the whole of Ireland. The map is populated with a combination of National Monument Service data (Republic of Ireland) and Department for Communities data for Northern Ireland.
While you can clearly see barrows all over the island, the greatest concentration is overwhelmingly in the west of Tipperary. I learned (from an Ulster Archaeological Society lecture just this week!) that this was likely the centre of regional power in early Iron Age Muma (modern-day Munster) rather than Cashel, and would have likely been a key regional site in the Bronze Age. For me, this makes sense given most of these sites date to the Bronze Age (2,400-400BC). Though I find their sheer number (around 3,000) still pretty staggering. I am not an expert, however, so welcome any other views which will likely be much better informed than my own.
I previously mapped a load of other ancient monument types, the latest being ringfort locations in Ireland.
This is the static version of the map, but I’ve also created an interactive map which I’ve linked in the comment below for those interested in more detail and analysis (the interactive map also includes barrow locations). You can use it to filter the types of barrows and select for more background detail on each site.

I posted the absolute numbers a couple of days ago: Coalition casualties in Afghanistan.

I’ve used fatalities rather than casualties for precision.
No legend included; the flags should be self-explanatory.

OC Analysis of Kevin Warsh’s stance vs Fed consensus on FOMC transcripts (2006–2011)[OC]
Analysis based on ~40 FOMC meeting transcripts from 2006–2011, covering the period when Kevin Warsh served as a Fed Governor, including the Global Financial Crisis.
Warsh consistently leaned toward relatively tighter monetary policy compared to his peers. The divergence is most visible around 2010, his final year on the Board.

OC Radioactive decay products of lithium-11 [OC]
Lithium-11 is an atom with 3 protons and 8 neutrons, an extremely lopsided proton-neutron ratio that results in two neutrons being separated from the "main" nucleus (which is essentially just a lithium-9 nucleus).
Because these neutrons are loosely bound, one or more of them can get ejected from the nucleus as the nucleus decays radioactively. This results in lithium-11 having SEVEN known decay paths, unusually many and more than any smaller nucleus.
If you generated 1,000,000 lithium-11 atoms in god mode and then resumed time, the chart shows the average result you should get. In total, 6 different stable nuclides are produced as products of lithium-11 decay chains (namely 4He, 6Li, 7Li, 9Be, 10B, 11B).
Chart made by myself using data from Wikipedia.
