I got spam in my spam
-
Recently I got a comment on one of my articles here, and I couldn't tell if it was a defective spambot or not due to the title "Language Basics Crash Course" and a message that was completely out of context (about javascript on a C++ article) I replied because of the ambiguity, and corrected their comment since the article was C++. Then another commenter (a real one) joined in the discussion. A couple replies later, I get a spambot replying to my reply. I suspect within a decade the spambots here will have whole conversations with each other. :laugh:
To err is human. Fortune favors the monsters.
In the time before bots, I had two mail servers talking to each other. looking at email stats I noticed the top sender had sent and received hundreds of thousands of emails. Upon investigation what had happened was the person had put an out-of-office notification on, as had a customer on her account. I cannot say who fired the first shot, but both were replying to out of office messages immediately after receiving an out of office message.
Nothing succeeds like a budgie without teeth. To err is human, to arr is pirate.

Some JavaScript lines do not need semicolons. Maybe it thought your C++ was JavaScript? Needs to crunch some more languages whether human or AI.

Just because they don't doesn't mean you shouldn't ;p

Pretty sure they already are on certain social media.
