We will never solve the Scunthorpe Problem.
It’s a clbuttic
Truly in a clbottom of its own
Hasn’t it been proven unsolvable?
Impossible. There is always some mf named like cum-sock, smh
some mf named like cum-sock
Excuse me? My family BUILT this country!
Or Grab-her.
Proven? I don’t think so. I don’t think there’s a way to devise a formal proof around it. But there’s a lot of evidence that, even if it’s technically solvable, we’re nowhere close.
Have you tried adding a few more kilobytes of regex?
Or a few more gb of LLM?
I swear, I just need 4-5 more graphics cards to solve this!
there’s a very trivial solution that always works actually, it’s called “stop being a prude”
I mean, you could just use a vaguely smarter filter. A tiny "L"LM might have different problems, but not this one.
So a TLM?
Awww, it’s trying its best!
TJA suggests a TLM.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Indeed; it definitely would show some promise. At that point, you’d run into the problem of needing to continually update its weighting and models to account for evolving language, but that’s probably not a completely unsolvable problem.
So maybe “never” is an exaggeration. As currently expressed, though, I think I can probably stand by my assertion.
Scunthorpe Problem
If only one could buttassinate censorship…
Don’t you mean buttbuttinate?
bottombottominateFTFY
I have no rebottomal for this comment.
It causes so much dawizard.
I had a Pycharm linter with “inconsiderate writing list” flag my use of “bi” as inappropriate, recommending to use “bisexual” instead. In my data job, BI, means business intelligence, it’s everywhere.
Gotta love Microsoft Power Bisexual
I now identify as a Power Bisexual.
Power top or bottom?
365
“I’m a power bisexual 365.”
That works.
I’m confused how bi is inappropriate
Huh, I’ve only heard business logic before.
Holy shit, 10,000 commits because each change was individual (I’m assuming automated).
Those commit messages though 🤣
They automated randomization of the commit messages? Wtf?
Gotta appreciate the level of commitment on this commit…
oh god
yeah, no. haha
And they’re all with different commit message:
“switched arse to bottom to create a more uplifting vibe”
“took arse out and put bottom in to keep my language warm and friendly”
“thought bottom would sound a lot nicer than arse, so I used it”
And so on…
lol😁wtf it was real?
The problem was named after an incident in 1996 in which AOL’s profanity filter prevented residents of the town of Scunthorpe, North Lincolnshire, England, from creating accounts with AOL, because the town’s name contains the substring “cunt”.
haha
Similar vibe:
Google: kill child process
FBI: ಠ_ಠGoogle: kill child process linux console
FBI:（︶︿︶)
It’s a clbuttic mistake.
I’ve been tempted to create a bot that does nothing but search comments in code for misspelled words and create pull requests for them.
If it stays in comments, little chance in breaking a working codebase and I’d have an insane amount of commits and contributions to a wide variety of codebases for my resume.
I’ll never be a top tier coder. But I might make management.
In case that wasn’t satire, please don’t 🥲 A small typo in a comment is not a big issue, and even if the PR is straightforward, a maintainer still has to take some time reviewing it, which takes time away from fixing actual bugs 😢
But think of the gains!
Simple changes require only simple reviews.
A better use of your time is to improve documentation. Developers generally hate documentation so it’s often in need of improvement. Rewrite confusing sentences. Add tutorials that are missing. Things like that. You don’t necessarily have to be a good developer or even understand the code of the project; you just have to have some knowledge of the project as an end user.
I have nominated you to the who’s who in america award
I am in doubt. That wouldn’t even compile. But who am I to think somebody changing something like this would actually do a test compilation afterwards…
HTML isn’t compiled, and unknown attributes are allowed. The best practice is to prefix non-standard attributes with
data-(e.g.<div data-foo="test">) but nothing enforces that. Custom attributes can be retrieved in JavaScript or targeted in CSS rules.
clbottomt when the chtopt shows up [imagine this as that popular GIF meme]
Fucking Scunthorpes!
It’s time for chbottomt and clbottom to finally become valid HTML statements.
Or just have some random subset of browsers support them for some reason and other browsers not so much. It’s the html way.
What is a ‘charset’ in this depraved persons mind? A corset? Must be a mighty kinky corset.
It’s replacing all instances of arse and ass with bottom…but doing so in about the most naïve way possible.
Aah yeah, thanks!
Someone needs to learn regular expressions.
Nah too many false negatives. Vulgar language must be wholly extinguished
It’s got an arse in there
OMG this took me way too long to get. They replace the substring “ass” 😭😭
and “arse”, as seen in charset
The ol’ master/ slave configuration again…
those are terms, this is substrings within words
I haven’t seen branches or variables being called
arseThen again, I do like to catch exceptions as
upso I canthrow upAt least for that we have replacement names that make sense (like primary and secondary or replica).
Luckily the feck attribute is too obscure to be in the line of fire.
