According to Google Trends, during the past few years, there has been nothing but a few minor bumps that faded away as quickly as they came. I love RSS because i do not have to scroll through dozens of different news sites all day and i would love it to return.
EDIT: Typical case of people only reading the headline. I was asking why people are hyped over something that did NOT happen.
Beyond that, though, who the fuck would use Google's search popularity as a metric for the popularity of a technology. Those who use it aren't searching for it all the time. OP is dumb.
that's been a leading indicator of popularity for a long time now.
Search popularity is something like the first derivation (read: change in) popularity of a technology.
Calling people dumb is ableist.
Is there an alternative to saying somebody or something is dumb? Or that a choice was dumb? Genuinely asking. It just seems like it's all ableist all the way down at that point, but I've not heard of dumb being called ableist before so am interested if there's a better alternative? Short-sighted? Uninformed?
I feel like, at least in this context, it's unnecessary.
If your in a submarine and OP tries to open the external hatch while submerged, sure call him dumb. If op leaves your baby in a scorpion pit because he thought it'd make the child gain super powers, dumb.
If, however, OP thinks that Google is a valid metric to gage how popular something is. "I disagree with using this as a valid metric and here's the reasons why."
No need to call him dumb. This post didn't hurt or impact you personally. It's just the original guy who called him dumb really doesn't like google. Which is fine. Not gonna call him dumb for using duck duck go.
I agree, I don't think using Google as an indicator of trends is wrong. I was just asking about why it is ableist is all :)
