why aren't there more mysteries that take place in nursing homes & retirement communities. i want to watch a group of deranged retirees-cum-amateur-detectives combine their powers of:

decades of life experience

boredom-fueled busybody shamelessness

access to the most gossipy next-door-neighbors in existence

"I am too old to be arrested and/or give a shit" attitude

and solve crimes. this should be an enormous subgenre.

#their sidekick/Watson/pet hacker is a 15 year old grandkid who hangs out with gram gram on the weekends #her only power is that she has above average search engine skills and flexible knees #which is completely sufficient to round out the group's skill set #they involve her in heist style operations #on the rare occasion she gets caught housebreaking she explains her grandma locked herself out of the condo and asked for help getting in #then this sweet slightly addled old lady shows up and explains she got the address mixed up #it's so confusing when you're old & all the houses look alike and oh she's so sorry to have caused so much trouble #and meanwhile the teenager is rolling her eyes bc she's aware gram gram was a career criminal & con artist for 50 years #anyway gimme a 80-year-old con artist turned amateur sleuth who loves getting older because people are less suspicious of little old ladies #this all takes place in florida naturally

"A funny thing happened on the way to the enshittocene: Google – which astonished the world when it reinvented search, blowing Altavista and Yahoo out of the water with a search tool that seemed magic – suddenly turned into a pile of shit.

Google's search results are terrible. The top of the page is dominated by spam, scams, and ads. A surprising number of those ads are scams. Sometimes, these are high-stakes scams played out by well-resourced adversaries who stand to make a fortune by tricking Google[...]

Google operates one of the world's most consequential security system – The Algorithm (TM) – in total secrecy. We're not allowed to know how Google's ranking system works, what its criteria are, or even when it changes: "If we told you that, the spammers would win."

Well, they kept it a secret, and the spammers won anyway.

...

Some of the biggest, most powerful, most trusted publications in the world have a side-hustle in quietly producing SEO-friendly "10 Best ___________ of 2024" lists: Rolling Stone, Forbes, US News and Report, CNN, New York Magazine, CNN, CNET, Tom's Guide, and more.

Google literally has one job: to detect this kind of thing and crush it. The deal we made with Google was, "You monopolize search and use your monopoly rents to ensure that we never, ever try another search engine. In return, you will somehow distinguish between low-effort, useless nonsense and good information. You promised us that if you got to be the unelected, permanent overlord of all information access, you would 'organize the world's information and make it universally accessible and useful.'"

They broke the deal." -Cory Doctorow

I asked Google "who ruined Google" and they replied honestly using their AI, which is now forced on all of us. It's too funny not to share!

The funniest possible outcome of all these Google antitrust disclosures re: deceptively re-writing people's search queries in order to maximise Google's ad revenue would be if the corporations that paid for those ads decide that Google has been defrauding them the whole time. The ultimate "bite each other's dicks off" scenario.

Every day of my professional life amounts to telling teenagers variations on the following:

"Google is not a source of information. Google is a tool for locating sources of information. Google does not know anything. Google can only tell you what somebody else said they know. It is up to you to evaluate the reliability of what Google presents you with."

hi besties <3

the other day I decided to be the change I wished to see in the world and finally figured out how to make the supernatural transcript search engine I've been dreaming about since I started making amvs a year ago

the only pages it draws from are transcripts posted on the spn wiki page!!! it's been really helpful for doing research on specific themes/phrases used throughout the show & to figure out which episode a quote came from. If you use it I suggest using boolean search terms to make things a little easier!!!

#supernatural #spn #my stuff #also I added a link to this in my pinned for reference. just in case #search engine

Misha at JIB 2010

#Misha Collins #JIB 2010 #jibcon 2010 #I saw a lot of misinfo about where and when these photos were taken so I decided to trace the source of them #google was useless but duckduckgo & yandex & tineye were helpful #EDIT: that woman is Julie Caitlin Brown and she is Misha's agent #fun fact: these search engines also think than Misha circa 2010 looks like Sebastian Stan #and will show me photos of him when I look for photos of Misha

ASCII art by chatbot

I've finally found it: a use for chatGPT that I find genuinely entertaining. I enjoy its ASCII art.

I think chatGPT's ASCII art is great. And so does chatGPT.

What's going on here? The chatbots are flailing. Their ASCII art is terrible, and their ratings are based on the way ratings should sound, not based on any capacity to judge the art quality.

Am I entertained? Okay, yes, fine. But it also goes to show how internet-trained chatbots are using common patterns rather than reality. No wonder they're lousy at playing search engine.

More examples, including from bing chat and google bard, at aiweirdness.com

#chatbots #chatgpt #ascii art #automated bullshit generator #they market this as a search engine #to be fair i would also give the second unicorn a 9 out of 10

If you weren't around for the early days of search engines, you may not be familiar with Ask Jeeves, but for a while there he was the one you went to for answers.

The site encouraged you to ask full-sentence questions, not just type in key words, and it looked like this:

It went the way of the dodo because Google won the search engine arms race, but Ask Jeeves left a mark on the internet. (The webcomic host SmackJeeves was named as a reference, for one.)

Thanks for all the search results, Jeeves.

#Ask Jeeves #jeeves and wooster #reading the second adds interesting context to my memory of the first #I picture Jeeves with more opinions about the things you'd search for now #though of course he's unfailingly polite about it all #anyways have a random FYI #90's kids #search engines
