I study searching. How do people think about it, talk about it, and practice it? Admit it, extend it, repair it, own it? Share about it? Learn about it? Complain about it? We need better ways to think about, talk about, and do search. How can we make it better?

- “It would be really helpful to have other people dabble in search without having to build an entire search engine from scratch.”
- Ollie.ai & “your personal shopper”
- “I love it when single devs can build stuff like a new search engine that actually work at scale.”
- “Product human evals are what matter to us”
