Google Search Is Dying

I don't have any recent information on how google search works, but years ago it looked at the expertise level of the searcher. So newbies received newbie results, advanced searchers received advanced results (and more visibility into filtering functionality). Today... they're hiding the advanced features and also seem to be reducing personalization of results to save compute resources. It's horrible.

You: Class Inheritance +ruby Google: searching for "cash inheritance..."

I work for Google Search -- we never operated like this. We don't know that someone is somehow a "newbie" vs and "advanced" searcher and change (nor did change) the results somehow.

I as a programmer can't imagine anyone building a search engine like this ?

As far as my personal experience(n=1) with Google, I have also have never experience anything remotely like this.
