Well, gosh, don't you have a filter in your e-mail whatever that is at least flagging these toxic billet-doux, routing them into a special folder (as in Chrome's 'Spam folder) ?
If I were ever crazy enough to open one of those '.doc files, or run some kind-a strange JavaScript, I suspect my Emsisoft software would catch them and warn me.

We try to make the latter into warnings or, better, errors. But stuff that is in the middle category you don’t want to restrict unless there is a clear way to work around it.» Eric Lippert, May 14, 2008

I use Office 2010. It does not have the greatest spam filters. However my ISP does filter for spam. However, some messages still make it through to my inbox.

My sister forwarded me an email with an attachment she couldn't open. Because it was from my sister, and I thought she was expecting it, of course I try to open it to see what it's about and what's wrong. 
Thank goodness she reads her mails on her iDevice, and I similarly tried to open it on a Mac, so no damage, but she got a hot, sharp lecture on common sense and looking at email addresses to see where it originates from 
The downloaded attachment was obfuscated, but some of the variable names still conveyed intent. If I had time/inclination, would've liked to try figure out what it actually does.

AFAIK, that's because the attachments don't contain any malware. They just contain code that downloads the malware from somewhere on the interwebz, and then launch the downloaded file.
Your antivirus should pick up the downloaded file as malicious, but I wouldn't want to risk it.

Lol, I've learned not to hate it as much. The syntactical sugar in ES6 and TypeScript make things a little better. Currently, I'm using Ionic.

Last year, when I had just started creating an artificial intelligence algorithm, I made a post calling for suggestions for ways to keep artificial intelligence good mannered and well behaved. At the time, my algorithm was still a long way from being functional. However, it is now at the point of going into beta, so I posted a very strict list of do's and don't list on Github. It is very strict indeed and needs to be.
It has been released on a GPL license, so everyone can own it (emphasis on “own”), criticise it and contribute to it. The address is:
https://github.com/Grand-Axe/The-Creed
Please take time out to read it and tell me what you think.
You can find my original post here, its titled; “Suggestions for ethical general artificial intelligence”:

My website is at: Mind Mutiny[^]
Thanks

If I might make a suggestion, change the first sentence on your site:
"Okeuvo Artificial Intelligence, is a new algorithm for general artificial intelligence. It is the first general artificial intelligence system that can;"
to:
"Okeuvo, pronounced [give pronunciation], Artificial Intelligence is a new algorithm for general artificial intelligence. It is the first general artificial intelligence system that can;"
It's a combination of letters that will be pronounced a lot of different ways in different languages, and it doesn't lend itself to English -- and that's a big turn-off for many people.
English grammar note:
English doesn't separate subjects from their verbs, like many languages do, so "Okeuvo Artificial Intelligence, is" is an error, because "Okeuvo Artificial Intelligence" is a (phrasal) noun acting as the subject, and "is" is the verb, so you can't put a comma between them, in English.
That'll be 50 cents for the English micro-lesson.
[edit] I forgot to take the bluddy comma out myself!

Thanks, I do owe you that 50 cents.
...And there I was thinking I had gained English kung fu. Heheh!
The comma is now gone from the offending sentence on the website.
A couple of victims (some British) were suffered with the pronunciation of Okeuvo though, all did quite well. Its pronounced "ok-ee-uvo". In the future, an audio symbol will be placed next to the word.
Its unusual to come across a person with such linguistic knowledge on a coders site; your grasp is impressive indeed!

If you do the audio with a cute girly voice, developers will keep coming back to the site 
And computer languages are too easy. If you want a real challenge, you have to go for human languages.
