@PeterJones Completely understood, you won’t have to repeat yourself!

If you think you’ve found a new topic that looks to be coming from an AI/spambot, just downvote and report, don’t reply. If you reply, and I or another moderator ends up deleting the original, it just leaves a reply hanging off a topic without an original post, which is pointless. If I find such replies, they will likely be deleted as well.

@tutoriales-honestos asked again here, and I have redirected followon conversation to this original Topic.

The quick answer is still that you can use a UDL, as I said in 2022.

However, I had forgotten about this discussion, so I had started researching an answer to the ask-again Topic, and discovered that the SciTE testbed-editor will open Go/Golang (*.go) files and internally use the C++ lexer (LexCPP.cpp). The cpp.properties includes definitions for Go. So it can handle it.

I am going to point this out in the long-open ISSUE #8090 that Alan linked, because with that, there shouldn’t be much overhead to add it to Notepad++. So if anyone pays attention to my reply there, it might be that it’s much easier to add that language than was originally thought.

@Alan-Kilborn ,

Two good points. I just put in feature requests for the poll plugin:

@mkupper said in Comment on How do I create a Poll in the Forum?:

I don’t think polls would be useful in an environment where only one person’s vote matters

As a plugin author, I might consider using a poll to decide what features to add to a plugin, or how to implement a feature.

There are other ways to do this (raising a GitHub issue and instructing people to vote by responding to the original post with thumbs-up and thumbs-down emojis, for example), but there’s definitely something to be said for less hacky solutions like the polls this forum offers.

@Terry-R said in Rugby World Cup:

Using AI

Flipping coins should be better than using AI*. An AI’s output or results is a (hopefully) best case averaging and fitting of a prompt string with the existing blend of unknown data already stored in the AI. The AI stirs and regurgitates. Flipping coins is both understandable to the lay person, neutral, and can result in outcomes outside of an AI’s averaging and data fitting algorithms.

* Look into the precession affect when a coin is flipped. Tossed coins tend to land same side up! :-)

PR was just added to master. Looks like next version will have it, or you can test the artifact right now.

Looks like it’s working …

NOTE: Customized theme in the screenshot. The ‘stylers.model.xml’ has been updated for the default theme to include MS-SQL.

Cheers.

@xomx ,

Yeah, better that they use their tool to decribe the problem requirements, watch it give them what they ask for, and then have to hire human programmers at inflated costs, to fix the program the A.I. gave them with their specs. The cost of not knowing what you really want, what you need, what can be done, and for changing your specs. :)
(Skynet doesn’t forgive, that’s why it programmed itself to remove the problem…incorrect analysis. :) )
