- s3graham 18y agoPageRank-Stanford-version might not be much code, but as I understand it, that's almost irrelevant to current search results which are much more complex.
- wheels 18y agoCertainly. I suppose it depends on whether you see PageRank as a specific algorithm (as I think most people reading papers on search algorithms do) or "the thing that powers Google's search results". My point was that the original comment wasn't just stupid.
