... was the Xbox One a "huge success" ?

I read the book. It’s something that comes up & happens multiple times, and the potential meetings being described are with various global heads of state.

While her boss continues to sexually harass her? Doesn’t sound like a mistake to me. There’s more to life than money, as the author makes quite clear throughout the book, IMO.

I've been shocked how consistently this improves the quality of search results.

Searching something like "get new cats to adjust to one another" on Google returns nothing but list-icle, SEO-laden crap with incredibly low information density and no mention of personal experience with the search subject from the ethereal "author" of such posts.

Adding site:reddit.com does wonders, but even just typing "get new cats to adjust to one another *reddit* " will return threads going back almost a decade with loads of suggestions, personal experience, and more.

It's not always useful (not anywhere near everything on reddit is worth being sourced) but just chucking the word reddit into search seems to be the most straightforward way to dredge up actual user-generated content that's not 100% crap.

Wish there were search engines designed to crawl more of that side of the internet and less of Google's schlocky results. I'm so sick of list-icles.
