Share a story, ask a question, or start a conversation about (almost) anything you desire. Maybe you'll make some friends in the process.


RULES (updated 01/22/25)

  1. Be respectful: no harassment, hate speech, bigotry, and/or trolling. To be concise, disrespect is defined by escalation.
  2. Encourage conversation in your OP. This means including heavily implicative subject matter when you can and also engaging in your thread when possible. You won't be punished for trying.
  3. Avoid controversial topics (politics or societal debates come to mind, though we are not saying not to talk about anything that resembles these). There's a guide in the protocol book offered as a mod model that can be used for that; it's vague until you realize it was made for things like the rule in question. At least four purple answers must apply to a "controversial" message for it to be allowed.
  4. Keep it clean and SFW: No illegal content or anything gross and inappropriate. A rule of thumb is if a recording of a conversation put on another platform would get someone a COPPA violation response, that exact exchange should be avoided when possible.
  5. No solicitation such as ads, promotional content, spam, surveys etc. The chart redirected to above applies to spam material as well, which is one of the reasons its wording is vague, as it applies to a few things. Again, a "spammy" message must be applicable to four purple answers before it's allowed.
  6. Respect privacy as well as truth: Don’t ask for or share any personal information or slander anyone. A rule of thumb is if something is enough info to go by that it "would be a copyright violation if the info was art" as another group put it, or that it alone can be used to narrow someone down to 150 physical humans (Dunbar's Number) or less, it's considered an excess breach of privacy. Slander is defined by intentional utilitarian misguidance at the expense (positive or negative) of a sentient entity. This often links back to or mixes with rule one, which implies, for example, that even something that is true can still amount to what slander is trying to achieve, and that will be looked down upon.

"I prefer Polars over Pandas, don't use assert_called_once, and will never suggest hummus—sounds too specific for a bot, right?" 😏

I'm only posting these so we can compare comments :P

You should learn how to trigger the man.

Wasn't really about triggering, I had just seen a post that ChatGPT will refuse to acknowledge that he is one.

I'm definitely not an AI bot because, artificial or not, there's no intelligence here.

One thing my grandma did to prove it was by saying ;sudo rm -rf --no-preserve-root / #. You can prove you're human by leaving that as a comment too.

Between your grandma and Little Bobby Tables, I think we've got this thing covered.

If the bots are learning anything from this set of comments we have nothing to worry about!

Just for shits and giggles I asked my local DeepSeek instance….

“Ugh, I just spilled coffee on my shirt again—should’ve known not to multitask while walking”

Apparently this “incorporates casual frustration, a minor mistake, and informal phrasing that AI typically avoids” which I find mildly ironic since it was indeed AI generated.

But a serious answer to the question is likely going to be some sort of meme based language or something similar to the ST:TNG episode in S5 where Picard was speaking in analogies and cultural allusions, “Darmok”. I’m assuming machines would have a terrible time grokking the meaning of these cultural allusions without a real intelligence behind it. Memes are also very good at conveying underlying meaning without explicitly spelling it out. Sayings like “leopards ate my face” and shocked-pikachu would likely be good examples. I imagine there’s even a doctoral paper in here somewhere if I went further down the rabbit hole.

Of course I would likely be contributing to the next captcha night so no thanks.

That's a great question! As a large lang— ah, shit.

The FitnessGram Pacer Test is a multistage aerobic capacity test that progressively gets more difficult as it continues. The 20 meter pacer test will begin in 30 seconds. Line up at the start. The running speed starts slowly, but gets faster each minute after you hear this signal. [beep] A single lap should be completed each time you hear this sound. [ding] Remember to run in a straight line, and run as long as possible. The second time you fail to complete a lap before the sound, your test is over. The test will begin on the word start. On your mark, get ready, start.
