since zig is famously decentralized, i don't think there is a way to effectively combat bad actors like these? there is no "official zig org" that can disown them

The longest lasting impact of the novel (personally for me) was how it introduced me to the concept of Opium Dens

aside: this reminds me of the opening scene from A gentleman in Moscow - the protagonist is on a trial for allegedly writing a poem inciting people to revolt, and the judge asks if this poem is a call to action. The Count replies calmly;

> all poems are a call to action, your honour

Hi, thanks for sharing. There are quite different tools; afaiu, the one you shared does not have any means of cross referencing other data. Also I could see only basic knobs to control the data generation -- ints b/w max/min, weighted distribution from a set of possible options etc.

datagen on the other hand allows you to access the data of any model, any field, any row to create new data; much like a DAG. This is a very powerful abstraction.

Of course, not having to write "code" in json is great too!

Having never used anything beyond Linux, Windows and Mac, what would be a good starting point? Can I expect gnu/coreutils to work as is (ls, cd, pwd, et al.). Can I expect to not get bitten by arbitrary issues? What if one of the emacs packages that I am accustomed to using doesn't work there due to a dependency on something that is Linux only? How likely/possible is that?
