Yes. But then you can't filter by time range. In their infinite wisdom, Google has made it either-or. Either I can filter by time, or by verbatim. It drives me

- Unkechaug 9y agoSeriously? This would be a deal breaker for me. It would also be nice to be able to save preferences so that I only ever get results from the past year unless I specify otherwise. It just takes additional clicks and is a big pain from the search engine that's supposed to be user friendly.
- tudorw 9y agoGoogle is a sitting duck for innovation, why does it not suggest scopes for search (paris = person / place), or show me a graph of results over time, or let me exclude pages with X% similarity and show me the most likely original source, there is so much room for improvement, exciting times...
- extempore 9y agoA couple years ago I worked out how to use these simultaneously. I always meant to publish this but I've sat on it all that time. Here you go: https://gist.github.com/paulp/91d657489b617dbb7de6db8b7c4fe4e4 https://gist.github.com/paulp/91d657489b617dbb7de6db8b7c4fe4... If you think you were frustrated before, just wait: you get to issue about three searches before you have to solve captchas to see the results. Google thinks only bots want to use those features simultaneously.
