    People who struggle to find basic things via web searches. That is, before the somewhat recent ratcheted up enshitification

    This is you: LLMs are good, except they are enshittifying search, which follows from the fact that LLMs are bad. But actually, even though they are bad, I know how to use them, so LLMs are good, actually. Normies are dumb and I’m better than them and it doesn’t matter if search is good or bad, normies r dumb and normies will never learn to google good which they can learn from me, a LLM understander who is very smart

      You misunderstood me.

      The enshitification I was referring to is the increasingly bad, non LLM search results Google is returning.

      I’ve said this elsewhere but a good 90% of my searches don’t involve LLM results whatsoever.

      Normies also don’t seem to know what should stay a “standard” search (most searches, IMO) and what might be useful to utilize an LLM for.

      I think your response is a bit aggressive TBH.

        nah, an aggressive response is me telling you to fuck yourself as I ban you for a second(!) time for making these exact terrible fucking posts

        I’ve saved many hours of work with it, in languages I don’t really even know.

        maybe by next ban you’ll figure out why your PRs keep getting closed
