Sorry, this solely exists as some halfbaker - who shall remain nameless - put it up.
The idea was tricky maths problems to solve as the capcha, and use that as way to prevent low IQ people posting their asinine remarks.
As I tried to add an anno, the server wouldn't let me and I thought "Blimey,
it's working already", but it was just the idea had been deleted while I was typing it...

For a particular electronics seller I know of, you have
to decode the value of a resistor by its color bands
in order to get in to the comments area. |
|
|
I can feel some sympathy with that, trying to exclude those of an assimilating nature, as to them resistance is useless. I wonder what they use instead of resistors? |
|
|
Perhaps a haiku-capcha would be more effective? But the starting parameters would need a bit of work. |
|
|
This would exclude me from basically everything.
...and from learning enough to be able to even learn what I do not know. Thanks eh. |
|
|
There is a very... VERY, large difference between intelligence and learnedness. |
|
|
You 'will' learn this fact. |
|
|
There are captchas for the blind, so that's been taken care of. I do not know the details behind how IQ is measured, but this would only screen out those with weak ciphering skills. I'll wager IQ measures much more than that. |

Unoriginal, baked, AND based on a bad premise. |

//Unoriginal, baked, AND based on a bad premise. |
|
|
Not my idea anyway, so I don't mind... |
|
|
Anyway, these premises have far too many cockroaches.... |
|
|
//large difference between intelligence and learnedness |
|
|
Not so, firstly they both contain three e's, one l, one n and a double- consonant, they are both nouns, both are written in the Latin alphabet and both exist in the same language (English)...ok, explain that eh, eh? |
|
|
...intelligence has two L's? |
|
|
Just because someone has a high IQ doesn't mean they won't post asinine remarks. |
|
|
A high IQ doesn't mean you're not an idiot. It just makes you a quick-thinking idiot. |
|
|
Why do you look at me when you say that? |
|
|
//It just makes you a quick-thinking idiot// |
|
|
So... a savant? Shame that that word always seems to be preceded by the word idiot. I dislike that word. Idiot. It just rolls off the tongue wrong-like, ends all harsh and stuff. |
|
|
How about substituting the word mediocre? ...or average? Heck, I'll even vote for atypical... |
|
|
I did get some name cards printed out with |
|
|
(we`re sure about the first part) |
|
|
and no one noticed....waste of time |
|
|
Trying to find a quote; I remember reading once
someone wrote "It may be that our technology will
require such specialization that a sufficiently
advanced technician will be indistinguishable from a
moron." |
|
|
Again, why do you look at me when you say that? |
|
|
...that word is 'ideat', and furthermore I hereby declare each and every halfbaker to be an ideat savant by association. |
|
|
"ideation" is already a word. Is "ideat" not perforce
its root? |
|
|
// Is "ideat" not perforce its root?// |
|
|
Nope. Ideate is the root according to the etymological dictionary. So Ideat would be Idea + here... caught up in, or where ideas reside. |
|
|
//Intelligence sauvant// wouldn't have anything to do with espionage would it? |
