One of the most useful internal tools at Google: Code Search "Sometimes I would not even look through my own IDE, I would just type 'cs /xyz...' " From Irina Stanescu who worked at Google for 5 years. Fascinating how Google's internal code search is also as good as... show more

@thecaringtechie My employer pays for GitHub Enterprise. I find being able to search over all organizational repositories is so helpful. I can quickly see how other teams are solving problems or if other folks are doing similar work.

Google told us how search would change back in 2015, and most of us ignored it because keyword matching still worked. It doesn't anymore. In this video I break down why your Google ranking and your AI visibility are now two separate scores, why AI pulls most of its citations from outside Google's top results, and how to shift from writing for keywords to answering the real moment behind a search. I also walk through the two-part system for getting cited and a simple plan you can run this week.

Steve Eisman says Google search is being replaced, off the same 12% growth David Sacks called thriving Sacks: "If you look at Google search revenue year over year, it was still up 12%. It increased from 56 billion to 63 billion... So, Google search is still thriving, I think you could say." Eisman: "Google's search revenue was up only 12%, which was also a disappointment." "The Google search business is a capital light, high moat business. It's an amazing business. It is probably being replaced by a highly capital intensive, low moat business." "And the results last night indicate that Google search is being replaced. Yes, slowly but replaced."

The design doc culture at Google vs Uber via Irina Stanescu (formerly at Google and Uber): Google: "They wouldn't even talk to you if you didn't have a design doc. You couldn't just walk up to someone and say I have this idea. Their response: where's the design doc?"

Google CEO on the fact that the search engine shows a photo of Trump when you type the word "idiot": If you type the word "idiot" in the Google search engine under the "Images" section, a photo of Donald Trump will appear. I just did this. How does this happen? How does such a search work for this to happen?

Demis Hassabis (Demis Hassabis) says DeepMind let Google's researchers look through its code before the 2014 sale, exposing years of secrets. "They've now seen all the secrets that we've sort of built up over the three, four years. So it would have been tough if it hadn't gone through at that point." - Demis Hassabis, Google DeepMind co-founder, on WSJ's The Job Interview

And I am not joking it is fraeking crazy that fff can do exact file search code search on the whole linux repo (7GB, 100k files) in real time but also it can do TYPO RESISTANT FUZZY CODE SEARCH *mostly* real time (just about 160ms delay per word)

📍A local SEO trick every pro should know: Use the UULE parameter to set a precise location for your search results. Adding a UULE parameter to your Google search query lets you see search results from a specific region without needing an extension or being physically there. Here’s how: 1️⃣ Generate a UULE for the location (Find a tool by googling “uule generator”) You will get a code that looks like this: &uule=w+CAIQICIQRWRtb250b24sIENhbmFkYQ 2️⃣ Now run any search in Google. 3️⃣ Look at the URL for your search and replace the last part of it with the UULE parameter. For example: google . com/search?q=sushi+restaurant &uule=w+CAIQICIQRWRtb250b24sIENhbmFkYQ How do you set your search location? #seo #localseo
