I 100000% know this will come true. Its not even a joke.
Never have I felt so understood. I am so glad/sad I know of this now.

n. the sense that the future is arriving ahead of schedule, that all those years with fantastical names like ‘2013’ are bursting from their hypothetical cages into the arena of the present, furiously bucking the grip of your expectations while you lean and slip in your saddle, one hand reaching for reins, the other waving up high like a schoolkid who finally knows the answer to the question
So our work has a few systems in place. The abysmal SharePoint, which most people hate (other than HR) and a typical set of servers mapped to network drives on all our laptops.
My question. What is a good solution for searching on that server? Explorer search is abysmally slow and offers no option for customizing a search. Its not even that I want to search the entire server, even just 1 “project” folder within it to find a document that has the word “list” in it instead of combing through 45 folders.
This really shouldnt be hard. But our management is more concerned with getting inaccurate answers from slopbots and degrading quality of work than solutions to actual problems, so theyve never looked into this. Half the people at this place dont know what a server or win explorer even is.
I would guess a solution would have to be implemented by the IT team and not on a per-employee basis. Is it just a matter of them turning in indexing? Really I’d prefer something more robust than explorer search.
Obviously IT would have to approve it if its 3rd party.
Thank!
Perfect for the authoritarian regime. Have a view they dont like, youll be deepfaked doing a crime and black vans will be at your door. We all know this is happening even now. Imagine 10 years down the road. Bad news.
