I would think it is reason they posted it.

There was a talk about detecting patterns and writing styles at Chaos Computer Congress a bunch of years ago.

The researchers also presented a tool to anonymize text as far as I can remember.

I will go look for the talk.

Edit: Found it!

They talk about their software to find who wrote what, but also how to use that knowledge to write software that attempts to anonymize text.

It said "work is fucking boring as fuck".

Searched for "puppy driver green text". Can we do that instead of guessing?

1e100.net is google's catch-all domain. Many of their services run under this domain.

It is a geeky pun, 1e100 is scientific notation for 1 followed by a hundred zeroes. This number is called a googol, which is similar sounding to google.

It is an infrared receiver extension cord.

Say you have a device that is controlled by an infrared remote, but is tucked away out of line of sight.

You can use this cord to move the infrared receiver into sight.

Here it is on amazon : https://www.amazon.com/uxcell-Infrared-Receiver-Receiving-Distance/dp/B07FKMK3GZ

Beautiful story. Feel that we've all been there. Every now and then, when the assumption is that the stupid piece of tech isn't working, and there it is, just functioning as intended :)

Thanks for sharing
