Came here to post the same thing, not only is it derivative over HTTP 418 Teapot, but it's generated with AI.

I'm amazed how people think they are contributing anything by being a meat proxy. In the cases of serious proposals it's hard to disprove, but in the case of a joke, it's just ridiculous on its face.

I get that there was a fridge hack, but there's also no jokes regarding that, it's just a bland HTTP 418 like RFC but with teapots replaced with Fridges

Incidentally, isn't outsourcing one's judgement to Pangram, also a case of being a meat proxy? :D

If you can't see what's different between spamming synthetic text as being one's own, and incorporating 2 bits of entropy from Pangram into my analysis, I don't know what to tell ya.

Who ever believes ratings from Pangram? Might as well report `sha256(text) % 5 == 0`, it's just as principled way of telling text is AI generated.
