Strange day, came across a chap walking his dog and he asked if I’d like to stroke his cocker spaniel.
Felt strange afterwards.
In hindsight I should have chosen the spaniel.
Listened to a new radio station yesterday - Sisyphus FM.
“The home of non-stop rock.”
At least the bot would have failed as it missed the lower case p at the end
Which feels like an odd thing for it to do. It’s got to grips with the two ‘hard’ things - the messing with the kerning which makes all the letters touch one another and the fact that the whole string has been set on a wavy baseline. But it’s been tripped up by the descender on the lower-case p. It’s concluded that CAPTCHA has done a third ‘hard’ thing i.e has displaced one letter downwards rather than ‘understood’ that lower-case p’s always do that. Given that it’s been trained on text where almost every lower-case p will have done it I confess I’m surprised.

Talking to a Spanish chap who was intent on teaching me how to pronounce Muchos correctly, I wasn’t that interested but it meant a lot to him.
I asked my new Spanish friends pre school little boy how to say please in Spanish, he didn’t know. Thats por favor.
