I had the task of attending a “Google programming department — employees only” meeting once. Not sure why they let me stay, I’m not an employee, or even a contractor.

Everything they say about Google is true — the employee food is insanely good, and their ethics toward internet users is sinfully corrupt.

It burns me that Google is still not sophisticated enough to deal with purposely targeted mixed-case search terms. Case folding seems to be fundamental to how they internally order their English-language data, yet they seem to encounter no grief with exotic alphabets.
