come to think of it, shouldn't make a difference

Reaps
2018-03-07 11:32:03 UTC  

however

Reaps
2018-03-07 11:32:11 UTC  

if I lop off kalash altogether and just keep 'gun replica'

Reaps
2018-03-07 11:32:56 UTC  

I get results

Reaps
2018-03-07 11:33:14 UTC  

perhaps it's a bit like the 'white inventors' thing

Reaps
2018-03-07 11:33:27 UTC  

where it assumes because the word 'white' is used it flips the script

Reaps
2018-03-07 11:33:39 UTC  

if you just search for 'inventors' then the white and black inventors show up

Reaps
2018-03-07 11:33:40 UTC  

etc

Reaps
2018-03-07 11:34:12 UTC  

as an example

Reaps
2018-03-07 11:34:17 UTC  

get plenty of results

Reaps
2018-03-07 11:34:26 UTC  

barely any m-16s though

Reaps
2018-03-07 11:35:28 UTC  

seems more to do with 'kalashnikov' for some reason

Reaps
2018-03-07 12:22:46 UTC  

meanwhile

@zahlman That was brought up in the past week, but according to Tim Pool that was implemented 6 years ago

zahlman
2018-03-07 18:40:27 UTC  

huh.

zahlman
2018-03-07 18:40:47 UTC  

@Legiondude that's.... *really awkward*.

zahlman
2018-03-07 18:41:06 UTC  

like, "pay no attention to the man behind the curtain" tier

Reaps
2018-03-07 18:55:28 UTC  

@zahlman you saw my reply to that though, right?

zahlman
2018-03-07 19:09:38 UTC  

idk what's going on with "white inventors", but the families thing is easily enough explained by everyone else's SEO, I think

Reaps
2018-03-07 19:14:17 UTC  

you saw the m-16 results though, right

Reaps
2018-03-07 19:14:20 UTC  

and the ak-47

Reaps
2018-03-07 19:14:55 UTC  

we know how SJWey Google can be, but until I get concrete evidence otherwise, it would seem that the algorithm gets hung up on certain words and word combinations

zahlman
2018-03-07 19:35:52 UTC  

but why would it? that's the thing

zahlman
2018-03-07 19:36:21 UTC  

it's really hard to come up with an explanation other than a hard-coded intentional failure, even if they don't have a consistent principle for what failures to cause

Reaps
2018-03-07 19:41:54 UTC  

neither does it make sense to me that they'd hard code it to fail on 'kalashnikov' but not fail on 'ak-47'

Reaps
2018-03-07 19:42:01 UTC  

joe average barely would know wtf a kalash is

Legiondude
2018-03-07 23:19:50 UTC  

@zahlman It was implemented as a response to the Sandy Hook shooting

Legiondude
2018-03-07 23:19:54 UTC  

IIRC

zahlman
2018-03-08 06:12:18 UTC  

huh.

One has to wonder, how often do sand niggers blame the USA for random bullets landing on people's head, when they were fired by other sand niggers shooting into the air?

Reaps

*If* I'm reading this right

Reaps

I'm supposed to be upset that the NRA has given slightly less than a million dollars to 29 politicians over the course of 20 years?
