This article is a pretty good summary of why, by Google's own words, an ad driven search experience will be rubbish:

https://pluralistic.net/...

Not only does Kagi produce great search results, as good as "old Google" IMO, its business model means the above cannot (or at least, shouldn't) happen. If it ever changed its model to include ads etc it would collapse so fast.

So for me, unlike the other poster, I'd recommend it to everyone who's finding the existing search engines are rubbish and full of useless Etsy and SEO etc links.

Take the Keane Reeves approach to having a relaxed life - don't have any arguments, to paraphrase him "Two plus two equals five? OK great, have a nice day, see you around!"

It's weird with Big Bang Theory, when it first started me and my friend circle loved it, thought it was brilliant but yes it did lose something after a few seasons.

But online everyone just seemed to hate it - could it be because we're British and it just landed better with us..?

You're accusing Cory Doctorow, the guy who invented the phrase "enshittification", of making a blog post that's really an advert...? Really???

Edge was my main browser until about six months ago, then they pushed that obnoxious UI change that added a load of buttons to my toolbar that I can't move or disable, and that irritating sidebar that jumps up whenever it can even when the button is disabled, and I went back to Firefox again.

Original Scrubs was one of the best shows ever made in my opinion - great cast and chemistry, genuinely funny whilst also bringing in the drama and tragedy of a hospital and it's patients, great writing, kept up momentum until the end (the original end not the crap that come after), great acting, one of the most faultless TV shows ever made.

He was also creative director for the original Ultima Online game and Star Wars Galaxies... both awesome and innovative MMOs at the time...

Playing devil's advocate, I'd argue the in the wild community testing is more likely to uncover an edge case that the formal testing didn't envisage..? 🤷🏻‍♂️

It wasn't a requirement, they made changes with the intention that it would always take at least two seconds.

The teams just adapted and got better again.

Can only speak for the UK but as the lowest civil court here, small claims decisions are not binding on any other court (including other small claims courts) but they are considered "pervasive" and thus a judge should be aware and take them into consideration.
