Anyone know if there's a US Time Zones by Zip Code DB out there
If you happen to use R the tidycensus package is absolutely fantastic.

NJ Population mapping by block group
If you have some facility with R, then the 'tidycensus' package is your answer here. You can get the latest ACS (2019) data at the block group level with that. Alternatively, NHGIS from the IPUMS folks offers access to census tabular and spatial data in a straightforward format.

SF object pivot/spread results in improperly pivoted object (NA values)
This indicates the polygons are different - I would ASSUME that the shape for a US county does not change too much (or ever) so I feel like its an issue with the package [tidycensus](https://walker-data.com/tidycensus/).

Relative frequency of letters in five-letter English words (Wordle aid) [OC]
I got the list of five-letter words from the words package in R, created the QWERTY keyboard grid with base R and tibble, and visualized the data with geom_tile in the ggplot2 package.

Thanks, it's an interesting idea! I definitely could implement this with scale_fill_gradientn) in ggplot2.

Fueling Innovation and Collaborative Storytelling
This might not be at the top of your list, but science fiction often presents advanced data analysis and visualization technologies. Open source data analysis tools such as Python's Pandas and R's ggplot2 have revolutionized the field, making complex data manipulation and visualization accessible to all. In the science fiction novel The Martian, astronaut Mark Watney uses a variety of data analysis and visualization tools to survive on Mars. He uses Python's Pandas to clean and organize data, and he uses R's ggplot2 to create visualizations of his data. These tools allow him to make sense of the vast amounts of data and help him to make critical decisions about his survival.

Sorry about the slow reply, but the auto-moderator seems to be deleting my comments (for some unknown reason). I will try once more: the geom_tile function in ggplot2.

Visual cues are a much better idea, thanks! Unfortunately, I don't know how to do that in ggplot2, either (I created these figures in R).
