God I feel so bad for people even just trying to learn stuff online now.

10 to 20 years ago we had a lot less content, but when you did find a hit on your search, you could be much more confident it contained meaningful information. Rather than just the official documentation repackaged across 10 different “articles.”

Yeah, no kidding! Plus, in addition to shitty results, the likely inaccurate AI summary to further confuse you.

God yeah, I’ll be like half way through an article before realising it’s just padding out some very surface level details about what I’m looking up. Like the top 3 interesting things about the topic, but never an actual novel, like, human take.
