Has Overuse of Bayesian Analysis Screwed Google Search?
- mojuba 19y agoA commonly misspelled word can't automatically become "correct", because there is always some etymology behind a word and it doesn't allow you to mess with it. "Ridiculous" is of Latin origins, for example.
- timg 19y agoVery true. Gmail misses misspellings all the time. Often I have to fire up emacs to double check.
- jey 19y agoJust use a dictionary or spell checker for spell checking. The google "did you mean?" is a fallback, not a true spell checker. I wouldn't be so forgiving about bugs in GMail's dictionary though.
- russ 19y agoJust curious, any of you go look up how to spell 'misspell' just to make sure you didn't misspell it? ;-)
