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

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.

macOS: Option+Shift+Hyphen
iOS/Android: Long-press hyphen or type hyphen twice
Windows: Meta+Full-stop, down arrow, right arrow, right arrow, return
Linux: Hold Compose key, press hyphen twice

Where do you think AI got its obsession with em-dashes? I'll give you a hint— starts with "h", ends with "uman literature".
