What is the criteria of an intentional lie, then? Admission?

>the robots.txt on the wiki is no longer what it was when the bot accessed it. primarily because I clean up my stuff afterwards, and the history is now completely inaccessible to non-authenticated users, so there's no need to maintain my custom robots.txt
Which is verifiably untrue:

- nkrisc 2y ago> intentional lie There are no “intentional” lies, because there are no “unintentional” lies. All lies are intentional. An “unintentional lie” is better known as “being wrong”. Being wrong isn’t always lying. What’s so hard about this? An example: My wife once asked me if I had taken the trash out to the curb, and I said I had. This was demonstrably false, anyone could see I had not. Yet for whatever reason, I mistakenly believed that I had done it. I did not lie to her. I really believed I had done it. I was wrong.
- alphan0n 2y agoNo worries, I understand. The author admitted to me that he was lying via DM, that he often does this for attention.
