Doorhandle YATT with CHAD

Post by Eelco de Groot »

Sorry this can be summarily removed but I found it a bit scary. I assume Mark asked to paint a picture of Henk and his washing machine with a broken handle, and it included two diferent socks and a laptop. Now it is possible that Mark asked to include such details but suppose he did not? Chad could have known, if he had read the whole subforum for every discussion on the ProDeo forum. So this is getting very personal. I mean, if you are looking for something like this, it is nice but also a bit scary. Is it a Turing Test. Or a Tamagotchi Test or something of both. The laptop could be just coincidence but the socks? Not that I think Henk actually wears two different socks but still..

Anyway maybe this is crossposting or it should go to the AI subforum here. But I just thought, maybe more people here do not know the ProDeo forums. We get very low views, less than .01 % of here sometimes, well most of the times now.. :P This is probably a clue that Chad did not actually read the ProDeo forum but it is possible AIs do read, but are incognito with their views not counted?
Debugging is twice as hard as writing the code in the first
place. Therefore, if you write the code as cleverly as possible, you
are, by definition, not smart enough to debug it.

Because this was essentially a private discussion. maybe still ongoing, and by now I suppose anyone interested will have read this 'offshoot', no discussion so far, I suggest we remove it. I have not asked Ras, but maybe he reads it. Or anyone can send a request for removing it.

There is certainly more to be said on the subject I will maybe add later in the forum where this was posted. The consequences of what is happening here in general are IMO laden with all sorts of questions! Philosophically to start with. But later perhaps from my side.
