Not even different person, Even if you search a query multiple times in a row it changes results drastically. I got a phished website of my Govt's tax website as a top result due to this[1].
W.r.t OP, I've been contemplating a search engine wall of shame[2] for a while now for recording poor search results and perhaps provide actionable feedback to the search engines.

- dalmo3 5y agoHa, my wall of shame would be thousands of entries all from the same formula: Google [github issue] [gitmemory page for same issue scraped from github] (add inurl:github) It's insane. I can only assume Google is actively downplaying GitHub/MS. Still yields better results than bing though, go figure.
- Abishek_Muthian 5y agoOh right, I always wondered how GitHub/SO scrappers make it to the top results, I thought plagiarism was SEO Don'ts 101? Maybe Google has some whitelist for programming websites due to parsing difficulties and meta nature of it. Anyways you are welcomed to submit your entries to the above search engine wall of shame thread(It's a validation platform I created), May be someone would see the value in it and create a subreddit or separate website for tracking search queries.
