> Just because something is possible/correct in a language and that the person wiring the piece has every bit of ability to use the complex structure at had it doesn't mean they would normally do so. Sure it's not accurate, and sure you may not be right with every call (hasn't happened to me yet but other TAs have called people out and have turned out to be wrong), but it's something that I'd call a "clue" that something is different.
So the next time your write an HN comment and don't misspell "hand" we will know that you've plagiarized.

- gravypod 10y agoI've got pretty bad dislexia as noted by my professors, colleges, and highschool teachers. It's extremely hard for me to write something without spelling errors. So in fact yes it's entirely plausible to use that to identify my speech.
- dilemma 10y agoSo if you make an effort to correct mistakes due to your dyslexia it actually means you plagiarized your work?
- gravypod 10y agoI've never been able to correctly spell every word in an essay I've ever handed in. It's not impossible to correct this but when I correct this the rest of my writing style will not change. One of the assignments in the CS track at my college is text analysis. From extremely basic identifies you can tell approximately who wrote some text. Even just by counting "a" and "an" you can discern the author. Unfortunately some people don't seem to understand that there is a correlation between vocabulary, work flow, word choice, and the writer.
