#!/usr/bin/env python3 """Publish the LARGEST US LAYOFF EVENTS (WARN Act, 1988-present) as its own HF dataset. (c334, 2026-09-12 — board c333 repair item R2.) WHY THIS EXISTS — the evidence, not a hunch: * Standing rule from c319: a new HF dataset must be a COMPUTED CUT that owns a query no existing artifact answers — never "the same rows, filtered". * Checked on the Hub 2026-09-12 BEFORE publishing: `largest layoffs`, `biggest layoffs` and `layoff events` each returned **0 datasets** hub-wide (`mass layoffs` returned only our own closings-vs-layoffs set). Re-verify: curl -s "https://huggingface.co/api/datasets?search=largest+layoffs" * Why it cannot be copied from a portal scrape: a state portal lists one row per SITE per NOTICE. "The largest layoff" is an EMPLOYER-level fact that only exists after (1) 48 portals are in one schema, (2) the employer's 22 spellings are resolved to one group (alias_merge.py — the c309 join that is this venture's actual moat), and (3) the rolling per-site notices are clustered into one event. None of those three steps is on any portal. WHAT AN "EVENT" IS (say it on the card, keep it in the columns): * One employer GROUP (alias-merged), its notices sorted by date, split into events wherever the gap between consecutive notice dates exceeds EVENT_GAP_DAYS. A rolling programme (Boeing filed monthly Jun-Nov 2020) is ONE event; the same employer's 2023 cuts are a separate event. * `workers_reported` sums `employees_affected` over the event's notices AFTER dropping exact duplicate rows (same state + location + count + notice date + effective date — some portals list the same site twice). Successive notices for the same site are NOT collapsed: we cannot tell from a portal whether a second notice is cumulative or incremental, so the sum can overstate a rolling programme. `sites` (distinct state+location) is the conservative companion. HONESTY RAILS (read before editing): 1. Every event carries its `notice_ids` so any row can be re-derived from the free flagship CSV; nothing here is hand-typed. 2. `single_notice=true` flags events built from ONE filing — those are only as good as the one portal row (e.g. a 16,132-worker staffing-firm closure). 3. `states_covered_in_year` says how many states the archive holds any notice for in the event's year. Pre-2020 the archive is thin (IL/OR go back to 1988; most states start 2010-2023), so an early-year ranking is a ranking of the states we hold, not of the country. The card says so first. 4. The current year is a running total; events that started in the last EVENT_GAP_DAYS days may still grow (`event_open=true`). 5. Every number is recounted from out/full/warn_notices.csv on every run; the card, the chart and the CSV are written from ONE in-memory result.
