Thats like when I searched for a song by it's lyrics ("My pronouns are fuck you and go fuck yourself") and Google responded with "Got it, I wont use pronouns for you going forward"

It's just gemini responding on google.com. If you wrote something like that in ChatGPT or Claude.ai or gemini.com you'd get a similar response.
A while back my wife told me about a singer/comedian that had a song with the lyrics "my pronouns are fuck you and go fuck yourself" (or something like that).
I put that into google to look it up, and the AI response on google.com (gemini) repsonded with:
"Got it, I wont use any pronouns for you".
It was actually really funny.

This is neat, but I would like it to search against the entire archive of all youtube videos. I know you can't do that...but perhaps a Google employee making use of Google's Big Data offerings.

Re:Ask HN: Why is Facebook not having a harder time hiring?
on Thursday April 25, 2019 @02:35PM (#19751179)
Because of money obviously. If someone is out of a job for a month, especially if they don't have "deep" savings, they'll take the first or highest offer they get.
Also, how do you know they aren't having a harder time hiring?

FYI This other comment:

Says Symantec sold their cert business to DigiCert
So could it be a cert that was issued as Symantec and just now shows as DigiCert and would still give you the error?

On mobile I’ve been using incignito mode exclusively. This prevents a lot of tracking, and bonus is it avoids many paywalls. I’m liking it so far - might try to do the same on desktop.

Even the body...as I was reading it, when I kept seeing new acronyms defined and used it sounded almost comedic. It reminded me of some talk or something I've seen somewhere where the made up acronyms end up being really funny description words like ("and this we call a PAININTHEASS process"). Can't remember what that was though.
