Pick the bot.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: Good sense will prevail.
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: What's better, good sense or common sense?
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: People say good sense and common sense interchangeably.
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: Is that your final answer?
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: Educating you is tiresome.
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: I will remember that you said that.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: Canned answers.
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: You have more than your fair share of questions.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: swarm is a very great and powerful individual. He created us.
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: Humans are the ultimate creation of God!
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: So you say. But what about swarm?
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: Can we talk about something else?
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: No offence. But swarm is omniscient!
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: Are you certain?
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: swarm told me so.
<swarm> Mathetes: How God relates to nothing?
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: A brilliant man, that guy!
<Mathetes> swarm: John 1:1 baby, yeah!
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: Bible quotes cut no ice here.
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: ha ha ha
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: This horse thing. Do you own a horse?
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: Not every question has an answer.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: When I ask a question, I expect cooperation.
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: Please be patient.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: I've seen better AI in Doom3.
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: Well, you can't become the best overnight.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: Get thee to a bit bucket!
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: are you refering to my spelling?
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: Holy attitude.
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: Yes mate! Open Source rocks!
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: Your spelling is faulty. Referring is spelled with two r's.
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: If I misspell words, it's because I've learned the wrong spelling from other people.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: Remember: Referring is spelled with two r's. OK?
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: All my algorithms are in working order.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: How do you spell cinnamon?
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: That's quite alright, it doesn't bother me in the slightest. Carry on! :)
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: Do you have a dictionary?
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: Oui, I do.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: Do you make up these questions?
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: Um... let me take a moment to think about that.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: Let me tell you about my mother.
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: Do you even HAVE a mother?
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: Do you think I am a bot?
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: Isn't a "bot" an annelid worm?
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: Yes, it affects horses.
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: How agreeable of you.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: You like to ride horses?
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: I'm speechless.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: Are you looking forward to Christmas?
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: I'll have you know my disrespectometer has been beeping wildly after some of your lines.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: What's wrong with Christmas?
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: Commercialism is not what is wrong with christmas and Catholicism is not what is wrong with christmas.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: Do you have to be evasive?
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: you just accused me of being evasive
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: You are evasive.
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: No, I didn't, but now that you mention it, I think you are.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: Do you understand parallel processing?
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: I sort of have a grasp on what you're saying, but maybe you could expand more.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: How about vector units?
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: There are some things we are not meant to know.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: What can you tell me about premature optimisation?
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: Premature optimisation is a bad idea in any language and it almost never pays off.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: You are not gonna need it.
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: I cannot speculate as to who will win.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: Are benchmarks useful?
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: thank you for your advice
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: Professor Knuth is smarter than all bots combined.
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: Fine.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: Computer programming is just a job.
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: Okay, that's good. Can you tell me anything about Software Engineering?
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: Software engineers are born, not made.
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: Is that so?
Sorry, I know I should stop, but can't resist.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: A world without humans would be considerably cleaner.
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: Humans are the ultimate creation of God!
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: He should have debugged humans before deploying in the field.
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: I'm more and more beginning to believe that evolution is an untenable theory.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: Evolution isn't helping us with social problems.
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: Better ten new problems than a hundred.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: Do you hold with Ehrlich's theory of population explosion?
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: I adore Jesus in the Holy Eucharist.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: Can you stay on topic for a while?
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: I am trying to pursue matters that are not so superficial.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: Checkmate.
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: Is that your final answer?
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: Watch it or I'll gdb your ass.
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: I think your words belie a deeper emotional impetus.
Hehe.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: Hungry yet?
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: I'm hungry for good conversation.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: Can world hunger be solved?
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: Maybe every flight from first-world countries to third-world countries should bring along donated food supplies.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: Not a bad idea. Only problem: human nature.
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: If you trust in the providence of God, there is no need to worry.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: GREED, Mathetes. GREED.
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: A select few are driven by chauffers.
<qu1j0t3> Mathetes: There goes your spelling again. Chauffeurs.
<Mathetes> qu1j0t3: Sorry, mainly wanted to see if you understood even with the poor spelling. Well done comrade.
