Russia has blocked Cloudflare too too. You can see it in the issues for jsDelivr (which apparently handles a lot of traffic for TASS, since they use the CDN and browsers don't share caches for privacy reasons). https://github.com/jsdelivr/jsdelivr/issues/762

We'll loop the list of 80 IDs, picking a random piece of art from the original ID list. I'm using stdlib's random-sample which uses Fisher-Yates as its algorithm to randomize entries as I didn't want to bloat my own code too much with these kind of helpers. Fetching the artwork data I unfortunately noticed that some of the artwork do not have images available. This meant that we'll need to loop the list until we have 80 pieces with images. For the main piece of the story we keep things simple and just pick the first one in the list. We store some metadata along the way, too, which we can/will use later.

NOTE: The open source projects on this list are ordered by number of github stars. The number of mentions indicates repo mentiontions in the last 12 Months or since we started tracking (Dec 2020).
