To give context, the implementations for the same problem are completely different, e.g. javascript versions uses worker thrreads on 4 cores for most of the examples. To compare actual performance first similar approaches should be used.

Those benchmarks are meaningless. Implementations and algorithms ised are wildy differenet, not testing similar things.

Uuh the benchmarks in this site is very misleading (for all languages). Do your own tests otherwise the numbers there are practically meaningless.

Well, to give counterpoint, just tested on Chrome / Windows (ok-ish CPU, decent GPU) all demos are buttery smooth no lag or jank whatsoever.

Why? Even if Google closes shop in Australia they can still use Google, web is quite big.

You like his style? Dunno, I watched his interview with Jim Keller, it was terrible and I cringed several times (And Keller rolled his eyes mostly).

No, it was better because it was much faster and results were much better. I remember those days, we (me, friends and family) were all using Altavista or lycos before, do you think we all switched to Google in a blink just because of it&#x2

Not really, Theological studies doesn't take students from the top percentages, but medicine, law and engineering do. Unfortunately pure mathematics and physics are not popular and top students do not pick these subjects. At least in s

Why does the article focus on "Arabic"? I think "Islamic" or "Muslim" would be a better term as large percentage of scientists and philosophers of the time were not Arabs but of Persian, Moore, Turkic origin.

I don't think there a single instance of an application that Google did what you described. Why do you think it will start now? This doesn't make any sense.

I didn't say identical. They apparently use the same index, not necessarily the same ranking algorithm or the same version of it.

Try a more complex query. e.g. "difference between wet and dry suit" bing and ddg web site results are almost identical, only ranking differences. Youtube results on the page are identical. Google is quite different. "average

You forgot something, Chrome was also significantly better than all other browsers technically.

Do you have any actual technical counterpoints?

They have some extras built on top of it, but imo yeah mostly marketing. In general no one knows how their arrangement with Microsoft works, would be nice to hear the details.

A weird justification, "Oh they show me irrelevant ads" Just say that you don't care. Or do the right thing and either pay, don't watch or use it with ads.
