mircea_popescu: i think it might be related to the spam discussion. "why is spammisspelled ? not because they can't hiore an editor. but because the demographic."
asciilifeform: spam is misspelled because that selects for idiots << novel hypothesis. traditional thought holds that it is to evade (or, optionally, throw out of calibration) bayesian filter.
mircea_popescu: Mats_cd03 spam is not misspelled because the spammers can't hire editors. spam is misspelled because that selects for idiots, and they are looking for idiots (false positives are very expensive for them)
