One thing about Google that's rarely considered - the proportion of
freshly-spawned useneteers whose mission appears to be to reduce every
conversation to "why didn't you just google it?". There's so many of
them, I'm beginning to doubt the need to post anything but that
phrase... |

Which you can visually weed out in about 60 seconds without expecting anyone
else to do it for you.

Freshly spawned? I've been using it for many years. And you're right -
since 99% of all reasonable questions have already been asked and answered
that phrase will save you a lot of time and effort. |

I'm not going anywhere. You're the one who wants other people to do his
work for him, you go away. |

This bothersome behavior was shiny and new, which makes it by no means
a foregone conclusion that it's "already been asked" about. And even if
it has, there's the niggling little matter of actually *finding* it,
and until search engines have some semantic smarts, it remains
generally easier to find answers by asking humans than to find answers
by asking computers. For now at least, the human brain's associative
cortex has PageRank beat hands-down, even if each individual brain also
only holds a fraction of the knowledge that the Internet collectively
does.
It will all be moot in another 15-20 years, when most of these froups
will have "people" that answer every question quickly, clearly, and
with unfailing politeness, don't get involved in flamewars, and are
implemented in a few billion lines of C++ or Java. (Or maybe Lisp. It's
still a contender for AI projects, or so I hear...) |

Dead easy in this case, as I showed you.

Intelligent agents will be a boon but until then we need to rely on our own
intelligence. |

I didn't.
I could not assume that I was not (among) the first to get fed up and
complain.

Good day. |
