Title: Captcha
Post by: Bla on June 21, 2011, 08:05:22 AM
Post strange/silly/funny/interesting Captchas here.

In this one, Captcha seems to be trying to remind us that it is important to areepre frequently. Don't forget to areepre!

Interesting thing about capcha: They're also used to virtualise scanned documents, so when you get a foreign word of something unreadable it's been scanned from a book or other document. Therefore, you can type whatever you want in it's place.

And the idea is that it takes what people typed in it's place the most and uses it in the automated process.

Also there's a small joke following surrounding capcha. HAIL INGLIP.

Idk what we should let optryo do, or what optryo even is, but maybe Chapcha will communicate more sikrits to us if we keep trying.

Umm, no comment.

Who wrote that in a book?
Apparently someone... lol I've found sometimes, search "words" from the Captcha's and you'll find Google books has the book/document it was written in. There tends to be only one. Also, most of the time I've noticed a pattern... There's usually a real word, and then gibberish, or vice versa. Maybe the real word is used and known by the system, and the other one is needed to help digitize the document it was from. Otherwise, I don't know how it could fend against bots.

Edit: Ithavati is a sanscrit word (or something) to mean minute or atomic... wtf See: http://www.archive.org/stream/1872sanskriten00moniuoft/1872sanskriten00moniuoft_djvu.txt (http://www.archive.org/stream/1872sanskriten00moniuoft/1872sanskriten00moniuoft_djvu.txt)

EditEdit: And it may have been scanned from this newspaper (http://fultonhistory.com/newspaper%2010/New%20York%20NY%20Evening%20Post/New%20York%20NY%20Evening%20Post%201869%20Grayscale/New%20York%20NY%20Evening%20Post%201869%20Grayscale%20-%200101.pdf) if anyone wants to find it.

EditEditEdit: Probably not the newspaper, because I found it, and it clearly is xth avenue. x being unreadable. It does appear to look like "ith avati" but in context and the few letters after the supposed "avati" make it be some numbered avenue.

As for the really odd, almost mathematical formula... I don't even.

Hmmm that makes sense.

Quote from: http://google.com/recaptcha
But if a computer can't read such a CAPTCHA, how does the system know the correct answer to the puzzle? Here's how: Each new word that cannot be read correctly by OCR is given to a user in conjunction with another word for which the answer is already known. The user is then asked to read both words. If they solve the one for which the answer is known, the system assumes their answer is correct for the new one. The system then gives the new image to a number of other people to determine, with higher confidence, whether the original answer was correct.
I win.

Currently, we are helping to digitize old editions of the New York Times and books from Google Books.
I win again. Obviously why you can find them searching google...
