Great plan!
So you better start sending me some bitcoins or I'll use the private email thingy...

Got the same email too.
The password is from a site I haven't used in the last 15 years and I have had no webcam in the last 10 years.
But I can imagine a bunch of people will be scared to death if they receive such an email and I know a couple of them

There was a hack long ago on a big site. I forget which one. I got one of those e-mails that had the password from that old site. Of course that demonstrates why we shouldn't use the same password on multiple sites. It did encourage me to go back and make sure of that at least. Back in those happier, more innocent days, it probably wasn't uncommon for even fairly technically astute people to use the same password. I had done it a few times, but all of them were either defunct now, or a couple online stores that only had many years of of date info that would have just set off alarms if they tried to use it.

Unfortunately a lot off people fall for it ...
I'm the same as you, at home desktop with no camera attached (or mic).
My work laptop has one but that is disabled in control panel and I doubt that video off me programming is going to freak anyone out... (and I never take my work laptop home so ...)
I haven't received such email tho, I never get the scam phone calls either.
Starting to feel left out

I had a similar email a while back. Apparently they had hijacked my passwords and had been watching me via my laptop's camera. Unfortunately my laptop hasn't got a camera. Nice try

I was able to solve this problem without my camera lens getting all tape-sticky by simply not masturbating in front of my computer while watching porn. Kinda spoiled the scam in my case.
Let me guess...I'm an...outlier?

Well, I successfully created something that eats grammars and spits out parsers for them (both LALR and LL1)
but so much left to do before it's road ready. I want to post this article badly but i might be as much as 2 weeks out and I can't wait.

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.

Can it parse its own grammar?
Is it simpler to use than all its predecessors?
Is it C# friendly?
Is it easy to embed a custom grammar in another project?
So many questions! So few answers!

Yes it can parse its own grammar. At least with LALR. The grammar isn't LL(1) currently, but that's not a limitation of the code, just that style of parser.
It's simple to use, and personally I think it's simpler than a lot of tools out there.
When I'm done it will be a whole lot simpler than anything I've used for certain. That's part of why I'm creating it.
The grammar format is EBNF and easy on the fingers, allowing complex rules using parentheses and optional (ebnf loop not yet supported - but maybe by the time i post it) - a lot of parser generators including Gold do not do that.
The parsers work at runtime, or can generate raw compiled or table driven (like most other offerings) parsers.
The runtime parsers means it's a bit easier to test your grammars since you don't have to compile first.
You can literally just do like:
var doc = EbnfDocument.Parse("some grammar");
var parser = doc.ToLalrParser(ParseContext.Create("string to parse"));
while(parser.Read()) {
}
this supports pull parsers unlike many other offerings, and streaming, so it scales to huge documents.
Many do not. That always frustrated me.
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.
