Yes it's an algorithm, but as software engineers we shouldn't pander to people who actually think there is a small flow chart dictating what happens in your sea

Yes it's an algorithm, but as software engineers we shouldn't pander to people who actually think there is a small flow chart dictating what happens in your search results. It's idiotic or dishonest.
- donatj 5y agoI mean I'm sure Google has somewhere a UML chart of the entire process of ordering results. Your insistence otherwise is disingenuous at best, either that or you've never actually worked on any sort of major software, at least with any level of reliability/dependability.
- mhh__ 5y agoSure they have a chart but it's not "if !idpol -> make woke instead". The level of discourse I'm trying to convey like what we saw in the Zuck/Pichai hearings in Congress. No understanding of the domain at all. You or I know how software actually works, your average politician or man on the street does not.
