Sometimes, when you're moderating articles...

...it's difficult to decide what to vote for: "Accept" or "Needs help". But I've just met one that gave me the same problem, but in a different direction. 1) The article is rubbish. :thumbsdown: 2) The article is spam. :thumbsdown: 3) The article is plagiarised.:thumbsdown: So what should you vote when someone has taken a badly written advert and copy'n'pasted it as his own article? :laugh: Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear... Triple fail!

This would be the one case that I would agree with ridicule as an consequence. 0) The internet sees all, you will not get away with plagiarism, especially in a forum populated by pedants. 1) You need to be publicly shamed for even thinking for a moment that it is OK to do something like that. 3) In some cases it could be construed as a criminal offense.

Why is this causing you anguish, Griff? This is a no-brainer - trash it. Anyone can write a bad article- we all have off days. But to steal a bad article and claim it as one's own is a new low on the Class Act scale, and deserves only the least of accolades. Stoning would be appropriate, but I suspect that shunning is going to be our only effective recourse. Chris is still clinging to his belief that sharing the technology he's developed to selectively send crippling electric shocks to specific keys on selected users' keyboards is morally wrong. I happen to believe that sharing this technique with a few million of his closest fans and followers would do much to clean up the ether as we know it, and make it safe again for children to explore. But he's the boss; what can I hope to do to change his usually superior mind?

0, 1, 3 is a perfectly acceptable counting system. The number is the decimal version of the binary value of the base 1 representation of the natural numbers. Viz: 0 [b10] = 0 [b2] ==> 0 [b1] = 0 (dec) (special case as base 1 has no representation for zero) 1 [b10] = 1 [b2] ==> 1 [b1] = 1 (dec) (fairly obvious) 3 [b10] = 11 [b2] ==> 11 [b1] = 2 (dec) 7 [b10] = 111 [b2] ==> 111 [b1] = 3 (dec) etc
function decimalVersionOfBase1Number(naturalNumber)
{
return naturalNumber ? (1 << (naturalNumber - 1) - 1) : 0;
}Or
n => 2^n - 1
