That Jeopardy set reads very dubious. Content that was collected by
scraping and available on various sharing sites (including Mega!). I
would not feel comfortable working with that in our context.

There are other dataset sources. I like the ones that Data is Plural
newsletter collects: https://tinyletter.com/data-is-plural (full list
at: 
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1wZhPLMCHKJvwOkP4juclhjFgqIY8fQFMemwKL2c64vk/edit#gid=0
). Again, copyright is important and I think having a local copy is
important too, for at least tutorial purposes.

But I wish we could figure out a way to include the RefGuide. It is
just so much more triple-bottom line solution than just random other
dataset. We could do a graph of cross-references in the guide, figure
out how to extract java path references, etc.

Anyway, it is not something that is super-urgent. I don't even know
whether our new build processes can be augmented to do this. I guess
it is a bit similar to how we run tests.

I just wanted to get a strong yay/nay on the idea. So far it feels
like I got one strong yay, one caution and one soft nay.

Regards,
   Alex.
