The content of arduino.stackexchange.com (https://arduino.stackexchange.com/), a Stack Exchange question-and-answer site, as published in the Stack Exchange Data Dump of April 2024 on the Internet Archive. The posts table holds 185,041 rows: 58,611 posts (24,704 questions, 33,236 answers, 329 tag wiki excerpts, 329 tag wikis, 10 posts of type 6 and 3 posts of type 7) and 126,430 comments, written between 11 February 2014 and 31 March 2024.

Every answer keeps the question it answers and every comment the post it was written on, so the threads can be rebuilt. The Internet Archive item describes the dump as anonymised; the votes table names the voter in only 116 rows.
