سلام درود بر کسانی که خدمت می‌کنند بر خلق الله خداوند عالم زمین را در ۶ صدم ثانیه ساخت نه در شش روز اگر بخواهیم در روز و تایم وقت زمان خویش حساب کنیم که کارمان زار است وقت عروج انسان به جهان حقیقی بر زمان وقت ما حدودا ۲ملیارد سال نوری است اما نه به یک پلک زدن همه ی هفت آسمان را می‌بینی و همچنین اعمالت را ما نگهبان خورشید هستیم و هنوز هفته بندمان را یادمان نمی‌آید تو چطور اینقدر تاریخ را با دقت روز ساعت ثانیه نوشتی ؟ ما ساعت جهانی را حدود دو ماه قبل از نو درست کردیم باور کن که که روزش به خاطرم نیست تعجب می‌کنم که ما که خودمان را خالق هوش مصنوعی و بااکچین میگیریم در پیش شما اینقدر از تاریخ ساعت عقب و ضعیف هستیم پس بهتر است که ساعت را به تو تحویل دهم .

The Experience API spec is [[open source]].<ref>{{Cite web |date=2013-07-11 |title=The Open Source Landscape |url=https://xapi.com/blog/the-open-source-landscape/ |access-date=2022-04-19 |website=xAPI.com |language=en-US}}</ref> xAPI uses a [[Restful]] web service with [[JavaScript Object Notation]] (JSON) for its data format. The web service allows software clients to read and write experiential data in the form of “statement” objects. In their simplest form, statements are in the form of “I did this”, or more generally “actor verb object”.<ref name="Saltbox Developers Discuss Tin Can" /><ref>{{Citation |title=Ali Shahrazad & Russell Duhon of Saltbox Talk about Tin Can Alley at mLearnCon 2012 |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0bsx3QoloNs |language=en |access-date=2022-04-19}}</ref> More complex statement forms can be used. There is also a built-in query API to help filter recorded statements, and a state API that allows for a sort of “scratch space” for consuming applications.
