The job title is Junior Software Engineer. It's a joke but also true - the effectiveness of a software engineer and many other types of worker hangs on their ability to google effectively, and it makes its way unacknowledged into their pay I'm sure.

ChatGPT actually showed me how much I'm frustrated with Google nowadays. It gave me a glimpse of what real question answering can be - and it's not opening 10+ tabs and endlessly reformulating the query in hopes something relevant and not just popular will come out.

I really want a tool like that - just ask a question and get a simple straight answer. For now its Google's "here is a bunch of websites, search it yourself" or ChatGPT "sure, here is the answer, but maybe I hallucinated the whole thing, lol"

The other day I typed "quick bite to eat" into my phone's "google search" bar and opened the maps app to look at the results. Among the results of a couple of fast food places, google suggested Fucking Lowe's hardware store. The entire company should be embarrassed at just how pathetic their machine is.

Actually this is revealing that you're racist (I'm mostly kidding).

Many, Many Lowe's and Home Depots have random food carts or other types of food (usually Mexican) nearby or in lot of cases literally right in front of the location. The reasons for this are an exercise left up to the reader.

Which is why I used the word "exclusively", but I still thought this was funny and I was actually thinking the same when asking. :)
