I'm willing to bet the page contained the word javascript somewhere. might have been "text/javascript" though. :-)

Yep. As well as "You have JavaScript disabled. Please enable JavaScript to use this feature." in a class. X| Since I haven't disabled Javascript for the site, it didn't affect the view. :rolleyes:

Just did a search for "javascript force to a number", since I was having trouble converting an enum to a number. The third result was to an article titled "The White House Task Force on Worker Organizing and Empowerment: Update on Implementation of Approved Actions". It didn't contain the work 'javascript.' God, Google is starting to really fucking suck! I did solve the issue (a syntax error in my calling code), but my eyes still hurt, and I expect they will for a while!!! :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: (but no smile - a huge frown!)

That's what happen when getting money from sponsors is more important than giving quality results for the users.
M.D.V. ;) If something has a solution... Why do we have to worry about?. If it has no solution... For what reason do we have to worry about? Help me to understand what I'm saying, and I'll explain it better to you Rating helpful answers is nice, but saying thanks can be even nicer.

Yeah, $74 billion in revenue is nothing in the eyes of greed. Must sacrifice the quality we've had till now! X| X| X|

I just tried that and the first result was
7 ways to convert a String to Number in JavaScript
- Using parseInt() parseInt() parses a string and returns a whole number. ...
- Using Number() Number() can be used to convert JavaScript variables to numbers. ...
- Using Unary Operator (+) ...
- Using parseFloat() ...
- Using Math.floor() ...
- Multiply with number. ...
- Double tilde (~~) Operator.
All the rest were links to answers posted at other dev sites for that exact question.

Your response has illuminated one thing: Google has totally screwed over Verbatim search. Before, it was far better than non-verbatim. I had Verbatim enabled, and when I disabled it I got the same thing as you.

After going to google.com and entering your search, after the results show up, click on the 'Tools' button under the ~header, or whatever you want to call it. Then change 'All results' to 'Verbatim'. Then you will probably get my crappy results. I had an extension that automatically changed everything to a verbatim search, but it looks like I'll have to remove that one now.

Well that certainly skews the results, and not in a good way. Glad I didn't know about it.
Yeah. Before three to six months ago or so, Verbatim _consistently_ gave me far better results than a normal search. I was a power user, and could narrow things down with great specificity. I haven't been able to do that lately.

I could not replicate your situation in OP. All results were relative and accurate. Not signed into Chrome or Google, etc. I did not see any link to the White House in the first 3 pages for results. Interesting.

Look at the bright side, at least they're biased and controlling the info they think you're not allowed to see. :laugh:

Agree with you - google's search results have radically changed in the last year (my perception). Far more attitude with little or no information. You might have to go to page 2 or 3 to see actual technical data.

Didn't you know that greed is an exponential relationship to the amount of what you have? Once managers get used to that level of life, they need the next step, and hence the next bonus or record revenue.

Google seems to look at your search history and develops a "primary interest" for future searches. If you spend a lot of searches looking for stuff related to your language of choice, .NET, javascript, and a bunch of other code topics, it should, over time, start preferring those results over others. However, if you start mixing a bunch of other searches into your history, the code results can start to get muddled as Google no longer knows what your primary interest is, or it's moving away from code. I run into that a lot as I do lots of media and political fact checking.

Perhaps you are signed into Google, and it is personalizing your search for you? I almost always do searches from an unsigned in browser. Before about 3 to 6 months ago, Verbatim search was _really_ good. Now it, and all other forms, seem to suck. - edit: tried it in Bing and it was FAR better. I thought I'd never say that!

Seriously, I've never found Bing to be all that terrible. I'd go as far as saying it's as good as Google's ever been, but at least they haven't yet followed Google's current trend to make everything suck.

Just wait until Google's Topics, their proposed replacement for cookies, comes into effect...
That's going to be "fun" for sure... X| X|

Given everyone is now trying their best to block third-party cookies these days, obviously Google pretends they're useless and want everyone to use the tracking method they are proposing instead. Which obviously will only exist to benefit them. Give it enough time, then people find reasons to block it too. Then they'll come up with yet another alternative...lather, rinse, repeat.

I find for most technical/code searches, bing is far superior, often giving me the code snippet from the most relevant stackoverflow post in an easy to copy view. But I am a .net programmer, so most of my searches are C# on Windows based. Plus, they've continued their bribe program and I accumulate points I can eventually trade in for Amazon gift cards. I HAVE turned off the chat functionality, though. It's not as accurate as the standard search.
