Simple, if his cat is anything like mine, he can only code in APL - and hasn't realized I use conventional languages.

APL? Not Lolcode?[^]
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Clearly, you've never seen a cat type.
This is "Conway's game of life" in APL:
life←{↑1 ⍵∨.∧3 4=+/,¯1 0 1∘.⊖¯1 0 1∘.⌽⊂⍵} Look just like what my cat types!

That's not typing at all. When they do that, they are saving your soul by preventing you from worshipping any false deities. Or maybe they just want some attention.

i'm pretty sure that's valid perl.
When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

APL makes a regex look friendly ...

Has he not tried C-Puss-Puss?
It goes without saying

He prefered C#, to match his claws.

My cat is mostly inside sleeping on the couch or on the bed.
When she goes outside she never leaves the garden.
And when other humans enter the house she flees to the attic because she does not like company (other than me).
Since she doesn't come out much, is mostly asleep, but has a healthy appetite, she's pretty fat.
She and I are very much alike

Mine, too. Mine two, too. They fight for space to be near my face so they can purr loudly and keep me awake.

I am slowly becoming like my cat ... sleeping, sleeping, sleeping.

My cat couldn't use my computer even if he wanted to, because I have Pawsense[^] installed...

so sometimes my computer is doing something while i have my hands full of cat, or otherwise busy and so using my webcam, make it so when I glare at it, it stops whatever the hell it's doing.
Dismiss any desktop notifications, or if there weren't any recent ones kill any app with a desktop or console window that started in the last 20 seconds.
i'd love it. of course, I'd have to turn it off while coding. I sideeye my code a lot.

I thought it was going to involve SkyNet... so roughly the same as you.

well, i mean, they do have an app for that - point and click even, but I find that users perform even more poorly at gunpoint.

You know, I think you could actually accomplish that with a little bit of OpenCV and no AI at all!
To avoid accidentally closing everything, you could use blink detection - so, for example, if you blink seven times in a row rapidly, your app will dismiss notifications and close any recently opened applications.
This could actually make for a fun weekend project! If you decide to try it, there's a great tutorial here that uses OpenCV and Dlib from Python: Eye blink detection with OpenCV, Python, and dlib - PyImageSearch[^]
If you don't like Python, there are good DLib and OpenCV wrappers for .NET. And since both libraries are written in C++, you could just use them directly from C++ as well.

haha cool. I'll take a look.
Ugh python. I'd love it except for significant whitespace.

Seems like a roundabout way of getting there. What you really need is an AI that writes that efficient LALR-parser for you!

Chris M. asked me politely not to give y'all any ideas about hooking AI up to code generation software.
It will put us all out of work. Well, not me, I only do this for fun anymore.
