What specifically is better than Google today?

[newsclues → paulcole]

The google algorithm from about 15 years ago.

I think the code is still running, just not publicly. Give me access to that!

I doubt this is true given how the content on the web has changed.

It is fun to be nostalgic though!

No, I believe it is true because it’s harder to find what I was looking for and it’s clear that the algorithm is skewed for political reasons and likely also economic reasons.

Yes, because there’s more stuff and different stuff than there used to be.

What makes you so sure the old algorithm would’ve worked as well with more and different stuff to sift through? Other than the fact that you really want to believe it.

Bud, it’s a business. This has always been true.
