Traveling again

Well, okay, not so much traveling again, as really just experimenting with posting on the blog again. Let's see what happens.

Dreams and Dragons: The Cursed-Disco-Ball-McGuffin Adventure!

I love computers; they are literally completely brain dead. 

For example, I just posted a comment to Dreams and Dragons: The Cursed-Disco-Ball-McGuffin Adventure! and the entire text of my remark was "A fun read :)"

The brain dead computer prompted me: "Prove you're not a robot. Enter the text from the image."

No worries, of course, and I'm not criticizing the Google programmers or program managers for such a brain dead algorithm - let's face it - spambots are a huge problem. I'm merely poking fun at how dumb computers are.

Now, I expect that before my child graduates high school, optical character recognition algorithms will have advanced to the point they can defeat these human-readable, but not machine-readable, images.

But, that's a different problem.
