gollark: They USED to.
gollark: Anyway, mind-reading is entirely doable but unfortunately most people's minds contain annoying irrelevant content rather than the specifics of the search query they just made.
gollark: Well, Google and Bing have 18246184618746128471289471289 employees ~~who actually know what they're doing~~ and postgres is likely better than the simple thing OSEv1 used.
gollark: What? No. Search engines are hard.
