  • Regarding pointing out examples of posts made by bots, that is just a waste of time! No one will know for certain, people will argue, those bots will argue, other bot accounts with the same agenda will argue, people will be manipulated, they will argue, and status quo returns…

    By talking about ‘anything of substance’ is being framed by the bot posts, repeatedly, to manipulate. But, take a step back and you’ll realise it really isn’t ‘anything of substance’ but something to distract.

    As for the early internet, I think you’re thinking about early pre-banhammer-FBI-raid 4-chan.




  • This will have fantastic use for primary level as well - maybe another separate (but closely related) app. Do consider special educational needs, e.g.

    • emotion recognition, so pairs of happy faces, sad faces, angry faces etc to help the children detect emotions in the real world
    • simple animals and objects to help with basic recognition
    • images of nouns that are called “CVC” words - that’s consonant-vowel-consonant words, like cat, dog, boy, bat (as in cricket), etc
    • colours, so basic shapes in bright different colours
    • letters, yep, just letters of the alphabet (and why stop at the english alphabet) - so a grid of vowels, and another of simple letters (not q,z,x etc)

    Also, could you show the name of the object to the side of the grid? And also… add an optional timer to complete the level by, or just to time how long it takes them - the latter allowing the users to set their own targets. This kind of app would be used with the support of adults alongside SEN children

    Good job!

    during the long learning curve, one is usually grossly underpaid and sometimes scammed and or cheated.

    See, that’s the issue on such sites. Posters want a whole (e.g. e-commerce) project done for $100 because, “it won’t take long” and then challenge your quotes with “well, I can get someone in bum|f*ck|land to do it for $100…”. A game I don’t want to play.

    And sticking around and building a rep for a year is difficult when such sites have lots of scammers and sock accounts actively challenging you to make you look bad and their other alt accounts look good.
