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
