Re:Ask HN: How do I train a custom LLM/ChatGPT on my own doc... by ercan on Monday December 25, 2023 @01:08PM (#38764680)
I found something very annoying while looking for technical data ( a service manual for an ancient medical device - build around 2001).

The same term was the name of the device + something about the power source.

The result from the client network - my phone/client computer nothing related to the search for 4-5 pages.

Same search from work - second result was what I was looking.

So it seems there is a relation with your search history, but somehow connected with the related search history from the same ip/network.

same experience. I'm generally getting better results at client's (VPN) network, we are all googling for the same stuff, I guess.

It must be possible to create a fixed set of google searches and rate the location based on the results. So you could physically travel to a Starbucks 20miles away to get the best results for the 'best USB-C dongle reddit'.
