`sed` on files in the repo to help build the website.
Cody Boone Ferguson also used one of his own tools to detect many
dead links. While the tool was not perfect it went a long way
to uncover a good number of bad, broken or otherwise invalid links.
It was a very laborious task to copy and paste problematic links
into the Internet Wayback Machine in an effort to try and find
otherwise lost content. A good number of links that now refer to
something in the [Internet Wayback Machine](https://web.archive.org)
replace bad, broken, or otherwise invalid links are thanks to
Cody's efforts! Another tool he wrote detected inconsistent award titles
in the README files and CSV file (that he generated from the SQL file).
