It said send this to the code monkeys by text it really frustrates them

anyone any idea what it is ? a hash key or encryption code or something

2402 characters , Im just curious as to what this is , if its mundane and boring then yeh
at first I thought it was an 256 character encryption key , but its way more characaters

I noticed it come up yesterday a few times (refreshing usually works for me).

It's nothing new, I remember this "monkeys" code error from years ago, I think it's basically a 404 page.

I got it yesterday. I searched the video on Google and when I clicked it, the video played like normal. It was very weird.

I've had this happen several times over the years.

It's just an error page.

Wonder if its the infinite monkeys eventually producing the works of Shakespeare sort of thing?

Some of those kind of things could be opened with wordwrap before, I don't even see that listed in Windows anymore.

I don't know if that is the case with that, I couldn't find wordwrap to try it.

Spook Community and LEO Lodge probably did a Full Spectrum Dominance software upgrade and server reset.

Pray for an extinct level event and no NOAH's get away this time.
Permanent solutions for permanent problems from an INFP perspective.

Transformers were hacking the system...would not have taken them long to do...which also reminded me of this scene:

looks like it might be a pgp encyption key.. Maybe its a public key..

a reply to: sapien82

Im pretty sure thats a viewstate.

I would assume that has information about the specific error encoded in it in some way. The only people who could likely tell you what it is are the QA/Test engineers at Google.

Given we have 57 different combos as we have 26 upper and 26 lower case and by the looks that message spaces and _- characters and as an IT guy that doesn't ring right for any really helpful debugging code that i'm familiar with.

I've sat in front of mainframes literally punching in numbers and have never seen a system like this as something to work with unless theres some secret sauce that works for google, it should be said theres plenty of 404 error funny things around as well and google are also known for their lulz so it could be anything thats the same length of letters just everytime something go's shall we says tits up (Total Inability To Support Usual Performance)

It was working fine for me all afternoon. Maybe a local issue?

It said send this to the code monkeys by text it really frustrates them

Joke 404 code page
Code Monkeys = Programmers (old Geek Speak)

Yeh I am in web development myself , I just thought it was something maybe more interesting than it was since i've never seen youtube go down ever!
