LMAO THEY GOT BUSTED
(lemmy.ml)
someone tell the bot author about xkcd #327
I'm pretty sure this exact XKCD was posted to Lemmy the other day and is most likely the reason this comment was made entirely.
it's a very very popular xkcd comic strip, much more in the programming community
because it's funny
get it? funny
i said a funny word ("funny")
I can't be the only one who thinks having a bot to go round pestering people for saying things like barmen is a little ridiculous right?
I got a similar reply from a mod account (I forget which subreddit) because I used the word "crazy." Got linked to this list: https://www.autistichoya.com/p/ableist-words-and-terms-to-avoid.html
Blind to ____ / turn a blind eye to ____ / blinded by ignorance/bigotry/etc. / double-blind review Refers to Blind, low-vision, or sight-limited people. Often used as a metaphor. Consider instead: willfully ignorant, deliberately ignoring, turning their back on, overcome by prejudice, doubly anonymous, had every reason to know, feigned ignorance
Those alternatives dont mean the same thing.
Double Annoymous seems better
I suspect if you are trying to build an inclusive community but don't have a lot of diversity already, the only thing you can really do to change the culture is to remind people to be considerate in the way they speak. And if most people who would be offended aren't actually part of the community (but you would like them to feel welcome to join), then you might want some bot rather than a person to be the “narc” and remind people to be on their best behavior. So I guess if the mods are the only ones who want to be nice, then yes, it is a bit ridiculous because it will never work. Even if people change their language, they won't be nice. But if most people want things to change, it could be a helpful way to both remind you to be inclusive and get the few people who would rather talk about how having to say bartender is censorship (without actually defending why they want to make a point of saying “barmen”) to realize that they either have to change the way they talk in that particular community or find a better fit.
Bots on reddit are just so universally annoying and most of them provide no value at all. Most of them should have been banned on sight anyways.
There was one for a while that told you how many times you left a comment saying "nice." It had a leaderboard and the top ones had done it some tens of thousands of times.
"most bots" leave auto summarize bot, reminder bot, repost detection bot about of that.
Flag waving bot and gif reverse bot come to mind. The value is just fun, but if fun isn't valuable, what is?
I modded a niche outdoor community sub and I banned every bot that found its way there. Sorry, but we don't need a metric conversion bot nor a grammar correcting bot.
Yeah, because the best part of reddit was the human interaction, and having bots proliferate everywhere just kills that entirely.
Who tf even uses barmen I've never heard that before
Right, it's clearly pubdudes
Anyone that has a production postgres deployment. For backups.
They should have replied:
0 rows changed. OK.
Or:
BOT.EXE: Command not found
just to see if the other guy keeps trying.
How did the author know the poster was in his 40s? Or was it just a guess?
Post history probably
They should use parameterized queries, not sanitization.
bruh this is the funniest shit I read today
this was a joke from xkcd
Yeah, it is a joke on xkcd and the joke is based on SQL injection, a type of database attack.
Don't know why he's so annoyed, maybe you didn't throw his database, but still something happened, I'm pretty sure...
No, it's just a pretty lame joke that got repeated like five million times.
Unfortunately our community breeds an extremely self-referential, repetitive humour that can get quite annoying. Like that one guy pissing his pants laughing because 42 hahahaha.
We still have more jokes than anarchy chess, though
Sounds like someone needs to google en passant.
