My dog once found a biscuit* in a bush near our home, from that day onwards he always checked the bush for a biscuit, there never was another one, the bush became known as "The Biscuit Bush"

cashews_best_nut,

What type of biscuit was it?

bingbong,

Bush biscuit

The owner should put treats in that bush for Dusty to find.

Found money in Vietnam once, and was forever looking at every piece of trash on the sides of roads thereafter.

This is my dog after she discovered she could pick her own blackberries. Too bad blackberry season isn't year round because she sure expects it to come back every day.

lud,

I wish. Berry season is the best. I love European blueberries (bilberries).

Drusas,

I absolutely love the natives huckleberries we have here in the US Pacific Northwest. They're also related to blueberries but have some tartness to them.

I think you would call this transductive reasoning. Rather than using information to put together a theory and work off that theory you work directly off the evidence

for example hearing a bell and dinner being ready and coming to associate the bell with dinner without ever learning why the bell means dinner

found pie in the bush, there might be pie in that bush

I once had a program fail to compile, but when I compiled it a second time it worked. No idea why, best guess is some kind of caching or dependency issue that got resolved by restating the compiler.

Now every time a program fails to compile and it’s not immediately obvious what the problem is, I instinctively compile it again just in case. Well more like three or four times.

I might just be a dog though.

Go to Google and search the site from orbit.

First few results are keyword sponsor ads from the same site taking you to their front page instead of what you searched for.

glibg10b,

Good luck sorting by price

tdawg, to memes in Because customers don't need to easily filter away some stuff from their searches

I don’t think I’ve ever added the ability to filter via the text field on any search system I’ve built. Normally there’s checkboxes and categories though

bleistift2,

I wonder how many people even know that the hyphen works on google.

TAG,
@TAG@lemmy.world avatar

Not even the Google search team. You can no longer negate search terms in Google or Bing or DuckDuckGo. Any suggestions for a better search engine?

cm0002,

What are you talking about? I JUST did that on Google a few hours ago and it worked fine

NoIWontPickaName,

Do what now!?! I can’t use standard search operators on google anymore?

bleistift2,

That’s what happens when stuff gets made down for the dumbest conceivable user.

I've been using Kagi for 2 months and swear by it. It might feel silly paying for a search engine, but I'm now the customer instead of the product, and I can customize my searches the way I want.

onion,

You should really implement the basics, “quotes” for exact match and *star as wildcard

ICastFist,
@ICastFist@programming.dev avatar

Which are often lacking. If I want to search for everything except brand X, I have to check the box for every other brand, which is a hassle. If I’m looking for “pirate costume” and I don’t want anything related to One Piece, there’s no checkboxes, or anything, to help me.

Sacrilege! You broke the template, third and fourth slide should be the same :)

I shall commit sudoku to atone for my sin

TerrificTadpole,

Can you also atone for my sins while you’re at it? Thanks.

Albbi,

Ooh, do we have another Jesus situation going on here? I’ll hop on on this.

grue,
Mossheart,

We talking sudo rm-rf /* sudoku here or the kind that you’d find in the newspaper?

ICastFist,
@ICastFist@programming.dev avatar

That sounds like a command that could work, sudo KUUUUUUUUUU, the more Us the slower it details the important files being deleted, without allowing you to cancel the command

Are we talking penguins that represent different linux distros? Because most sure match “socially awkward” and awesome

RedditRefugee69,

Memes are art and this works

tuxrandom, to memes in Because customers don't need to easily filter away some stuff from their searches

The category filters of electronics distributors used to be good (some still are). But then they started letting business people categorize the products, and now finding stuff without having a part number is basically a lottery.

deo,

hell, even with a part number, you still have to sort through a bunch of irrelevant stuff. I swear they must just “select all” when assigning tags to phone cases and stuff.

blindsight, (edited )

Fuck phone cases and bad search. I just got the Sony Xperia 10 V. The whole Sony Line is just changing the number to 1, 5, or 10, and the Roman numeral from I to V (and growing).

Good luck finding anything. It literally took me hours (including advanced Google Fu) to find out that the style of case I want doesn’t exist for my model. (But the 10 IV has it.)

Is there a site that categorizes cases by exact model? I feel like it shouldn’t be this hard.

thorbot, to memes in Because customers don't need to easily filter away some stuff from their searches

Meme format is wrong. I do not accept this meme.

PlasterAnalyst, to memes in Because customers don't need to easily filter away some stuff from their searches

Still works on eBay for now, the one thing they haven't broken.

jasondj,

eBay really has one of the best search engines around, IMO.

Once you know how to use parenthesis, quotes, and minus, you can build very precise queries.

I_am_10_squirrels,

Boolean search is better than natural language search, once you know how to use it

lichtmetzger, (edited ) to memes in Because customers don't need to easily filter away some stuff from their searches

Aliexpress search is just the worst in that regard. “Hey I want to buy microchip X123457” - “Sure, here are some other totally different chips and a few iPhone cases for you”.

Without site:aliexpress.com and search engines I would never find anything on there.

ICastFist,
@ICastFist@programming.dev avatar

Not to mention that it changes the actual results if you decide to use any of its shitty filters or even order by price. Like, if your search result had 4 pages and you order by price, suddenly it’s now 2 pages. My bet is shady assholery to fuck with sellers that aren’t paying enough, much like Amazon

👊Hold up, buddy! 👊🤔Spotted your Gru’s Plan meme 🤔👉, but quick tip: ✌️Keep the text in the last two panels the same for that slick punchline! ✌️😂Consistency is the key to meme magic. 🗝️👌Give it a shot, and you’ll nail it! 👍😄

velvetThunder,

I don’t get the downvotes. You expressed that it differs from the usual meme formula but it’s very obvious that you aren’t serious. And it’s kinda funny reading the text whilst imagining those bullshit emojis. (At least I hope that the emojis weren’t serious)

stebo02,
@stebo02@sopuli.xyz avatar

yeah this kind of sarcastic post was a pretty common trope back in the day on r/copypasta, so I wanted to bring some of that back

deathbird, to memes in Because customers don't need to easily filter away some stuff from their searches

Swear they’ve made search worse everywhere to keep us on aites longer.
