Twice, now, I've been prevented from posting a message by "It appears that the garbage you wish to post has already been posted" messages (I can't remember the exact wording, but that was probably it).
It's reasonably unlikely that anyone else would post two somethings with exactly the phrasing I used, and I know that I hadn't posted the same things before, so kess ke say, moochatchoss?

You must have been posting to other forums and not the Lounge. The Lounge clearly accepts all kinds of garbage. 
There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

It happens if you press the "Post Message" key twice, or sometimes if it appears that your message has not been posted. In the second case it's usually a timing issue, when the hamsters are having their post-prandial nap.

The messages haven't appeared on the site, yet, so it's not the double-click thing.
I should insist -- nay, DEMAND -- on immediate escalation to third-line support! These were important messages!
(e.g. the one today was to the MQOTD thread.)

Oh, I had hoped that would help me know when my wife (Leslie) was approaching.

Well, if you just stay in the wardrobe, no-one will have to rush to hide in it.
See? There's always a simple solution, to every problem.

Oh, you mean the movie!
My daughter loved that movie.

 Well, at least you know your wife. I'm so clueless, I don't think my wife does that.

Yes, but only the one. Still seeking a way to clone her though.

I can detect a Leslie. It sounds close to but the same as a phase shifter.
Peter Frampton yeah!
|
|
|
|

Straight line: "Do you like Frampton?"
|
|
|
|

Yeah, If ya don't you're either dead or mis-guided that's for sure!

That was indeed "Automatic Leslie detection", isn't it?

The flux capacitor is playing up again causing a temporal anomaly. The first attempt was rejected because of the second attempt and the second attempt was rejected because of the first.
To correct the issue give your computer a sharp bang on the desk and your head a sharp slap on the side. If this doesn't work, repeat until either your submission is passed or you don't care anymore.

...You get meaningless drivel like this:
A JavaScript utility library delivering consistency, modularity, performance, & extras.
Given me absolutely no idea WTF their package actually does.
In this instance, I shame the creators of https://lodash.com/[^]
What, am I supposed to know this through some spiritual channel?

I'm with you on that one. I've done my share of researching libraries, frameworks and APIs only to find some non descript drivel reeking of wannabe marketing lingo, but never quite driving home the point that would actually explain what exactly they are doing. I'm not only talking about commercial stuff either. It's common that these kind of flowery, empty phrases are also used to promote free (open source etc., you name it) software. Thankfully sometimes I reconsider these packages after somebody, sometimes CP members, write articles about them actually showing me what they are good for.
If somebody has the brilliance to come with a good tool, one would think they'd also be able to come up with a fairly precise description of what exactly that thingamajig is actually doing.
Cheers!

Sounds logical, but it requires completely different knowledge bases to create software and explain it.
Add to that the fact that everyone in the entire world believes that he is a great writer, no matter how many people inform them that they can't understand a word of what they wrote, and you get the reason why software documentation is the way it is today.
-- If you want software, you hire the most brilliant software engineer you can afford.
-- If you want software documentation, you hire the most brilliant writer you can afford.
Then you tell them that if they don't work together effectively, they'll both be replaced (it's OK to lie, sometimes).
But don't make either try to do the other's job. Even if they're good at both, they do not have time to change focus so drastically.

Quote: lodash is also available in a variety of other builds & module formats.

My goal in life is to have a psychiatric disorder named after me.
I'm currently unsupervised, I know it freaks me out too but the possibilities are endless.

What do you expect? Nobody in a healthy state od mind would mistake JavaScript with something that's remotely resembling a programming language. So let them go on with delivering consistency, modularity, performance (what a joke!) & extras.
The language is JavaScript. that of Mordor, which I will not utter here
This is Javascript. If you put big wheels and a racing stripe on a golf cart, it's still a f***ing golf cart.
"I don't know, extraterrestrial?"
"You mean like from space?"
"No, from Canada."

Marc, the description is actually pretty self explanatory.
Let me rephrase it for you: "A JavaScript library with nothing useful in it, skip ahead"! 
I would also add, "But it's enterprisey friendly" (with all the DI stuff and sh*t! )

Lot of libraries coming out, wonder why i stuck using the native JS.

Ha! I was just thinking the very same thing about lodash today! I was incorporating it into a new project I'm building because I was copying some useful JavaScripty stuff from another project, and looked into lodash. Came across that page and thought, "well now I have no idea what it does." Googled instead and some other page said it's basically a more lightweight version of underscore.js.
