You mean a "credit model" depending on correspondence length and authorship
time? GitHub has a statistics page for repositories which shows who has
committed the most lines in what timeframe. And some open source frameworks
like Ruby on Rails list their most active contributors
https://contributors.rubyonrails.orgChatGPT says about you Marcus that you are
the most active poster by a substantial margin. You win clearly in this
category. Nick and Glen are funnier according to ChatGPT though. ChatGPT is
particularly fond of the Nick's post "All those who think Steve was wrong raise
your hands" and Glen's post "Say it again … Say it again in a different way …
Again … Again, damnit!"-J.

<[email protected]>Subject: Re: [FRIAM] What is FRIAM and is it still
aliveChatGPT proposed these two laws:FRIAM's First Law: We take difficult
philosophical problems and worry them to death until someone produces either a
profound insight, a completely insane hypothesis, or a phrase like "quantum
woo".FRIAM's Second Law: If a theory is suspiciously elegant, somebody on the
list will throw a shoe at it.The reason I have asked ChatGPT and Gemini is I am
writing a new self-published book, and the first chapter is about FRIAM. Their
summaries are surprisingly good. I asked them to find funny anecdotes in the
FRIAM archives and they found a post from Nick that said "OK friammers, All
those who think Steve was wrong raise your hands" :-)If you do NOT want to be
mentioned in the chapter because it is too much quantum woo for you then please
let me know or raise your hand. Will share a draft in a few days.-J..- .-..
