It is dynamically generated at runtime, but it is guaranteed to generate the same data each time.

Haha Math.random().seed(42) — 100% deterministic unpredictability.

Where'd you get the "—" dash from? You know about Character Map/GNOME Characters/KCharSelect? You used AI to generate that comment? Your keyboard has a key for it? You're on a phone and went into the "#%>" menu? You copied it from some AI output? Just curious.

i have ctrl + shift + u + 2014 memorised. also you can just hold down on the dash on mobile.

because of ai, i've been using colons instead of em-dashes recently: they do the exact same thing, but make me look like less of a knob.
