That's not even it, it could be for a gift (or crossdressing?). It's more that it's unlikely that you're going to search for bras while searching for programming knowledge, unless you belong to a subset of people that really like to multitask or are very easily distracted (and this subset makes the problem harder).

I know someone who had a technology-driven bra startup, but I suppose that's an edge case.

I did that once, or rather, Stackoverflow's advertising algorithms thought I did. I don't remember the exact search phrase, but it did container the words "stackoverflow" and "string", and the advert I got stond out from the ones you usuele get there.
