I remember talking to a Japanese coworker about some pain I was experiencing, and they asked if it was like zukizuki or - some other word.

Not necessarily.
While slave labour is cheap, at scale a combine harvester is even cheaper.
But it's not just the raw production cost that matters. If you add a 200% levy, then ofcourse you risk tipping the edge back over to the black market.
I too have never tried cannabis, and I too support legalisation.
Not because of the effects it has on the consumer, but because the effects it has on the producer.
It depends on where you are, but where I am - the UK - the producers are primarily enslaved. A fact that is rarely talked about.
Recently there was a big drug bust. The headlines all described how many dogs were freed - less than twenty. But deep in the articles behind euphemistic language you could read that one and a half thousand enslaved people were also freed.
That was a fun read :-)
I've been using a M1 for well over a year, and until about two weeks ago I didn't know it had a notch.
I don't follow the tech press, who I'm sure discussed it a great length when it was released. And I'm not personally invested in the Mac, it's owned by my employer.
So I didn't notice the notch until my cursor disappeared while scrolling across the top of the screen.
I had my first negative experience contributing to open source with Mana World.
I thought that there were too few quests, so I wanted to add some. I was struggling compile code or getting the server to run or something like that. When I asked for help in the forum, I got a rude response mocking my technical abilities. It was completely demoralising and I stopped trying to make more quests.
For years, that was my last experience with contributing to open source.
2015 is not pre-austerity.
What's it written in?
Jetbrain does have community editions that are open source.
The game is free. It's open source and runs on everything.
