From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

The mention of datalog confuses me. I know it as a programming language. Does it mean something else for you? And what do you mean by "canvas"? I know about painting on a canvas and similar usages as well as the verb "canvassing" for soliciting for votes.

Not the programming language, datalog here is referring to highly interlinked knowledge base,
canvas is logseq whiteboard version of Obsidian, like for mind map or creating data flow/logic diagrams.
