* What /live reads. The floor is `db.sessions`' most recent hour — real
* countries, real latencies — and the ticking on top of it is a seeded series
* generated here, once, from `seeded("live")` against REFERENCE_DATE. Nothing
* reads a clock and nothing calls Math.random, so the frame the server sends is
* the frame the browser hydrates, and the page reads the same every time it is
* opened.
*
* The islands never call any of this. A generator is a function and a function
* cannot cross into the browser, so the whole series is generated here and
* handed over as plain rows; the client walks it on an interval. That is also
* what keeps `db` on the server, where it belongs.
