Google can find something for you on the other side of the world in less than a second. Why does your personal computer take so much longer?

"google gives you relevant resources" oh how this aged like milk. Stinky rotting cheese now.
You "fry" every last word that is extremely annoying.
because you did not please the machine spirit within your computer with the proper rituals and prayers of the Omnissiah.
I still don't get it though. The search results basically appear instantly when you consider network latency as well. And the index of what amounts to the whole internet can't be small. I'd like to know how google manages to search the index that quickly, organizes the results and sorts them by relevance in basically no time. It has to massively parallelize a search on multiple servers right?? What's the nitty gritty of that?
This question kill me for a long time & finally I got the answer , thanks
My ict teacher made me watch this.
Answer is that huge indexed text, now probably over 100 petabytes, is probably broken down into thousands of parallel databases each with it's own dedicated supercomputer. So when we search for exact quote, thousands of computers search their own small database, maybe few gigabytes in size, and one or more of them will find the exact quote in fraction of the second.
Soooo Google downloaded all the internet?
Did you know if you take the 10 extra seconds to manually save and title you documents in specified folders then you'll only ever have to check a single folder at a time to find whatever it is your looking for. To help further, add subfolders to narrow your search even more and place your most relevant folders on your desktop screen for ease of access. I can still access every report, research compilation and resource guide I ever had to type up for my classes within a couple minutes manually without a search function. It's been 6 years since I was in college.
but it really bothers me how her mouth moves
she is annoying me
I thought she was wearing the glasses that came with a fake nose. I felt so bad after realising…
video starts at 0:59
thanks me later
It's STILL a miracle lol, I often find myself sitting in front of my monitor in amazement at the greatest library ever created and the sheer size of the whole thing. I wonder what my grandchildren be using?, we are so lucky to live in times like these, my mothers time she tells me life was colorless and being working class there was little or nothing to actually do. Being British working class she told me that on long nights of nothing {not even radio, only crystal sets and they were not common } when it became dark { only gas mantle lights then } even sitting in front of the fire and watching the flames dance had a calming effect on the whole family and made you ready for bed. We really cant even imagine that can we
still it is a mystery for me
Just implement the search engine algorithm in a computer.
Storing File Indices on your home computer also takes up more space on your hard drive
Guys, this is why you should clean your registry often and defrag often. The computer's search works a similar, albeit simpler, way. It looks through the master file table (MFT) and registry (regedit.exe). On my computer, without cleaning registry of defragging for 2 weeks, it takes 8 minutes to search all files. Just after cleaning registry and defragging, the search takes just 15 seconds.
Hey, You! Yes, You over there at where ever your SciShow studio is. STOP WITH THE GODDAMN PATREON THING, IT IS SO F*CKING ANNOYING.
no such thing as topix or not, ts not ask or not, nonerx
So the crawlers makes a web of index
hoped to find some speculations on the algorithm…
Summary in 3 words: hashmaps are great
Very well, but this doesn't explain how google searches the internet for specific phrases so fast, as when we use the "" function. These will not be indexed.
Think your nose ring is ugly
Well , you were nore intersting to me than the whole point of the video. I wonder which index i should use to find you.
thx for this awesomely ha bisky vid i loved this a lot and i dont really have much on my laptops/computers ever
Great video!
The reason why search engines are fast is because they cache results in memory. It's NOT because they index the results. That's important too, but not the main reason why you get your results instantly. For more complex queries, google does not cache the results, and thus, it takes more time to retrieve them.
if someone uses grep (in a bash shell or similar), it also finds stuff drastically faster than using Windows Search; and grep doesn't use any sort of index either…
pro-tip, the setting you guys are looking for can be accessed by right clicking on the C drive and clicking the box that says something like "Index my files" but she's right, it does slow down your computer. Not all the time, just when it needs to edit the contents of the hard drive. It won't slow down you game of WoW, but it will probably slow down any game that stores local files, and it will make installing and updating applications slower.
Google search operators are really awesome. If anyone know how to use it properly; then he can search google like a boss/professional/hacker. Thank You SciShow

This a joke? – "Everything" installed – Instant search
What are the health benefits of eating ass?
Olivia ftw
hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
Windows search is slow because it is garbage, not because it searches file names. Search everything does the job instantly if you have indexed, within about 20 seconds if you have not.
