I see a lot of talk around here regarding the Stack Overflow public data dump.
Where is it? How can I play with it?

FYI How can I download the Stack Exchange data dump from archive.org through the command line?– Franck DernoncourtFeb 4, 2018 at 1:19

The latest release of the data dump lives on archive.org.
A version of it (updated weekly) can be viewed and queried online at data.stackexchange.com - the data here forms the basis for the quarterly data dump.
Older releases are listed in this answer - however, many are no longer available.

Is this updating still happens weekly? and is it on which day? Oct 24, 2017 at 17:28

Yes, data.stackexchange.com gets updated weekly. Do you have a reason to think otherwise?– OdedOct 24, 2017 at 17:30

Thank you :) . I came across a post where it is mentioned this happens monthly and is obviously older than this. Since this post is older than one year, I was wondering whether it's changed. And which day is it? Oct 24, 2017 at 17:32

Forage through the tag [data-dump] and read up a plenty while you sit back, relax and engorge yourself with cherry ripes and data dumps.
Related: Better know a schema.
And might be good to check out the blog at least once a month. Especially when they squeeze out a good sized dump of the data.
