The Most Dangerous Writing App

Having trouble with writers’ block? Need a bit more of a push to help kill your internal editor, stop fretting about quality control, and get that prose flowing. Try out: The Most Dangerous Writing App. Keep typing, or watch all your hard work fade before your eyes.

True you will probably not write anything award-winning, or maybe not even anything which you would dare to show anyone else. You might even find halfway through the exercise you give up writing anything relevant and just start going through your shopping list, favourite sport statistics, or repeatedly typing ‘Twilight Sparkle is Best Pony’, until time is up and you are released from the exercise, or have a heart attack.

Generating random ideas to help with story. The next step in spelling, grammatical and coherence checking as applied by Galley Slave?

I wish I wasnt so tired, Id be able to do teh simple code for teh combination of simple ideas, and see if they can analyze, learn and recreate text the way I hope it will, related to lossless, lossy compression schemes.

If Im correct, then less than a hundred lines of code, or far less without declarations, comments, debug can give the learning routine, whose output can be fed into a neural net. A combination of four of these modules could apparently give the greatly simplified equivalent of various psychological disorders including depression and paranoia.

All I have to do to really get the thing going is a nice collection of text files of verbs, nouns, grammar constituants, etc and let the code run through it and work out what language is itself.

The most important character in text, is the Space.

The things I try to do to get the computer to write up a game while Im playing it. Like Elite Classic, but Pathfinder style.

I love it. I don't ever write, and i found myself writing a string of wonderland-esque nonsense words, a series of two syllable fragments with a sing song lilt, followed by a cognitive loop typing the same set of keys trying to type the same short phrase repeatedly for thirty seconds before breaking out of it, which froze my hands above the keyboard for too long.

I can't type without looking at the keyboard.
