But what is the circumstantial evidence here ? The argument essentially boils down to: "this guy cheated in the past, so I don't trust that he won't cheat in the future". This is fair: he should decide whom he wants to p

And the air temperature should be controlled because someone may signal single-bit information otherwise.

That's a refreshingly modern ui, especially compared to retrogames.cc.

It was a good query, I'd have done something similar to replicate. I can guarantee you that it's not intentional. It was definitely easier to estimate in the past, when a single query was fired on a single corpus for a given user

It has been either Bing or Google since 2009, but when Marissa came on board, she revived the old search engine team. The effort was shut down just before the sale to Verizon.

By all means, feel free to use any other search engine that you feel is better than Google. Or better yet, wow us with the better engine that you can build.

yeah. Or rather, forced to pay.

Maybe. Apple passed on buying Yahoo Search when it was up for sale though.

Because Apple is extorting them.

> If this isn’t maliciousness or incompetence, what is it? Expensive to calculate, for something nobody really cares about anymore.

Every Google engineer can see the code that performs this calculation. Google engineers have demonstrated that we are very vocal when we smell foul play.

I don't doubt that's what you see. What I get for: "starfish buttercup pickle mouse" is exactly one result [About 1 results (0.32 seconds)], which is your YC post. Removing the quotes gives me [About 34 results (0.63 sec

From the article: > For example, the Google Pixel 5 had the Snapdragon 765G and the Pixel 6 series has Tensor with all of its inefficiencies. The author lost me right there. They are either unable to understand the difference between a m

Interesting connection considering that some of the Pinecone founders are ex-Yahoos.

Scale is relative: my day-to-day involves working at a planet-scale serving infrastructure that handles trillions of documents. I've always thought of sqlite as "this little library that you drop in for handling small datasets rel

I've used SQLite in the long past (early 2000s) and had fun with it, but I had never seen this. Imposing your religious beliefs through a ..code of "ethics" no less, in exchange for some (arguably small) thing you've don

Why would any, when absl::flat_hash_map<> and absl::node_hash_map<> is available ?

by utopcell 4y ago
The author has done a lot of work, but the title of this article is very misleading. There's no monitoring happening on the watch, it's just used to display the results that are collected by another device.

This is not a generic discussion, we are discussing web search IR in particular, but if you want to be pedantic, the TB sized dataset could be the PageRank values and "scoring" could be the ordering of these values.

by utopcell 4y ago
Whatever you do, whichever ML model you develop, a query-independent ordering of all documents will always be necessary since all distributed IR systems will over-retrieve according to some form of term matching and then apply sophisticated
