@oddhack Huh! That is definitely a lot more resultification than I got. Maybe I missspellled it? [does search again...] Oh. OH. OMFG with facepalm. The helpful AI was assuming I misspelled "neurodivergent", and ONLY gave me results for THAT. May I observe, once again: OMFG. :blobcatupsidedown: (Dear search companies: DO NOT DO THIS. I expect it to be fixed by tomorrow morning. Thank you.) #softwareGripe

@woozle generally I see search engines put a tiny link for "Results for {what I think you misspelled}. Show only results for {what you actually spelled}" somewhere near the top.

@woozle @oddhack There is some delicious irony in a specific and clear request being ignored in favor of the more “normal” option, here…

@woozle @oddhack Machines that think they know better than you deserve all the hate they get.
