Just over the last few years it went virtual reality, blockchain and crypto crap, and now chatbots.
What will the next fad be? I’d like to know so I can convince one of these VC ghouls that they should give me money for vaporware.

you used to be able to get that information directly from a search engine when those hadn’t fully enshittified.
Haave other people not been using verbatim mode on search engines when they’re researching? “Personalized” search is the biggest problem. You can just hit tools -> all results -> verbatim on Google and you get far better results.
oh they un-broke that? i remember giving up after it didn’t do anything for a while
Yeah, you can also just put quotation marks around every word. Unfortunately the + operator is still broken and they don’t care to fix it. Effectively not a real change given that it had previously been deliberately disabled.
i haven’t seen quotes work in years either
at least i don’t need functional search for school or work
Which is why they are extremely useful.
