Hey D&B developer here. I'm excited to see so much interest in my work. If the captcha is correct we categorize it as a bot and don't let it through. If the captcha is incorrect then it must be a human and we let them through.

Good news: we're hiring! We have day long meetings Mondays and Wednesdays, but other than that it's great.

I don't really understand this approach. Won't the false positive rate be close to 100%? Humans are going to get the captcha right every time. If it's supposed to be a honeypot system, the input should be hidden from human users to avoid that problem.

Pssst. I don't think that was seriously a post from a D&B developer.

Damn you, Poe! :(

The last "I" and "I" are swapped with CSS. Bots don't realize this, but humans do.
