welcome to the machine learning future, where anything you do that is a statistical outlier gets you algorithmed by a machine that is incapable of reason but knows when you're different.

As a person who has been a statistical outlier most of my life, I am dreading this. It's bad enough dealing with human impressions and mis-judgment, but now we get it from our computers now, which used to be logical, deterministic havens.

Appalling what that says about Google, or what that says about the average search user?
