  * ## Notes
  *
  * -   This function synchronously reads data from disk for each invocation. Such behavior is intentional and so is the avoidance of `require`. We assume that invocations are infrequent, and we want to avoid the `require` cache. This means that we allow data to be garbage collected and a user is responsible for explicitly caching data.
  *
  *
  * @throws {Error} unable to read data
  * @returns {ObjectArray} data
  *
  * @example
  * var data = dataset();
  * // returns [ {...}, {...}, ... ]
