fucking hell why won’t the profitability crisis just kill google so we can open/public-source a better option why does it have to limp on like this becoming infinitely worse by the month, but not so dramatic everyone decides to jump ship at once
The funny thing is that I’m dyslexic so after a certain amount of time (~3 months? ~6 months?) - I might have to google again. I could have entirely forgotten which is right - “compliment him” or “complement him”. It seems wacky that I simply can’t remember that it’s “I” not “E” but dyslexia is a processing error.
The other problem is I learned it’s best to use an example because it’s faster. If it my example is right - I immediately know that. And if it’s wrong - it only takes a couple seconds of scrolling (with my eyes or mouse) to see I got it wrong. Google (etc) keeps saying “We’re gonna use AI to make things better!” Well - put that shit aside and instead easily improve your product by having low-level people improve your search. This is Improving Your Search 101 stuff.
i’m a perennial spelling-google-er too, i can’t tell you how many years it took me to both convince myself definitely was a word, despite the red lines in word processors (on my many, many misspellings) and that that’s the correct way to spell it. and fucking bureaucracy, heaven help me.
also for definitions, even words i’ve used a hundred times if i’m slightly unsure it’s correct for the slot i’m putting it in, always search it up
