  “Now”? Try 10 years ago, at the very least.

  The weirdest thing about switching to kagi was learning that the first few results have a good chance of being relevant. I got so used to scrolling down after a search. It was just weird to have the useful results on top. Similarly, learning that search syntax is actually meaningful and respected by the search engine (for the majority of cases).

  It is also absolutely 100% BS investor-bait. At this point it should be obvious that we have reached just about the peak of what LLMs can do. And it’s notably not Google’s Gemini even - other models are generally better. For AGI to be feasible, there should be a paradigm shift, which is not a function of more work hours.

  Yes, they had a system where you answered questions about a wide range of topics, and and answered what the ideal mate should say, then give a weight to how important that is for you. For example, you prefer chocolate over vanilla, and you want your mate to be the same, but it’s not an important factor. On the other hand, you prefer not to be a nazi, and it’s super important your mate isn’t one either. Also, there were IQ questions which allowed filtering out the stupid ones (like is the sun or the earth larger). Then the system would recommend profiles based on a match score computed from your answers. Really great. Got two relationships out of it, one is going 10 years today.

  I’m with you, but probably one good reason to consider Black Mesa “wrong” is the reimagination of Xen. Even though Xen is the weakest part of the original and BM did an excellent job at it.

  … which is not a high bar.
