- MereInterest 11y agoChrome here, with the same issue.
- contradictioned 11y agoI guess, we're flooding the maths-render servers.
- ramblerman 11y agolol, I think you're overestimating HN traffic just a bit here. Adding a hash solves the double enter https://www.google.com/?#q=x*sin(y) https://www.google.com/?#q=x*sin(y)
- _lce0 11y agolol, I think he's underestimating the Google server power a bit there :)
- tim333 11y agoNot sure exactly how it works but if you disconnect from the internet you can still change the x and y ranges and have it redraw so the render is client side.
- witty_username 11y agoIt uses client-side rendering, WebGL I think.
- CyberShadow 11y agoCompare the submitted URL: https://www.google.com/?q=x*sin(y) with: https://www.google.com/search?q=x*sin(y) The resource is still the index page, not /search for the search results page; the query is simply prepopulated.
- serve_yay 11y agoQuite disappointing on an iPad as well. Just an empty page with some vague error message.
