Has Google even bothered with Foobar for like past 2-3 years? It appears so frequently on non-incognito searches that surely every developer must have seen it by now.
- woutr_be 6y agoI've never seen it, but I assume they only target people in the US.
- pta2002 6y agoI've never seen it, I assume it's just a US thing
- ShinTakuya 6y agoI've never seen it, but other people in my (non-US) country claim to have seen it. I always assumed it was either my taste in porn or the fact that I'm usually logged out and regularly clear tracking cookies.
- non-entity 6y agoI've never got it and I've been googling programming stuff for almost a decade now. However, maybe I'm remembering wrong, but a few years ago I was reading an article about it and someone showed a search term that brought it up for them and I tried that term and got it. Dont remember what the search term was, but I think it was something related to one of the popular leetcode-esque algorithms I've never had to do in my hobbyist or professional work.
- saagarjha 6y agoI’ve never seen it on any of my searches. I got sent a link…
- sanqui 6y agoCan't say I've seen it. Guess Google isn't hiring in my country.
- tienthanh8490 6y agoFooBar is still being considered. I solved some problems few months ago and was contacted by their recruiter one month after that, they did mention FooBar as the main signal.
- hamandcheese 6y agoI’ve never seen it, live in the US, and I google developer things all the time. Maybe it’s because I work in Ruby and not one of the more googley languages?
- cameronbrown 6y agoI've seen it in the UK last November.
- rabuse 6y agoI've had it hit me twice over the years.
