    And then we had to actively unlearn that google fu because google no longer works with keywords, but rather has an NLP pipeline that expects a question.

      So that’s why I can’t find shit. I always just use keywords, asking a whole question seems almost wasteful.

        Wow, no wonder most of the old search commands don’t even feel like they work…

          The last straw in utterly ruining it was when they removed using quotes to get exact matches. That was the only way to cut through the garbage. Now the only use for google search is searching within specific websites that never bothered to make their own decent search function.

            Using quotes for exact matches works in both Google and Bing. Literally just tested it

          Fucking right?!

          It adds this weird abstract where the search keywords the question you ask but that requires you to ask the right question. Sometimes I just need the page that has the most mentions of a specific word or phrase.

      Someone used the phrase “dead-catting” on here the other day, so I went to google to figure out what the hell that meant. It gave me reults for the Catechism. Between the actual phrase “dead cat bounce” and “Catechism”, it chose the latter to show me.
