I have read more that one of these stories too. Archive: https://archive.today/ntSHm From the post: >>For over a year, I was bugged by a search quirk on Mintlify that caused race conditions and wonky search results. Here’s the fun irony: I was the founder of Trieve, the company that powered search for their 30,000+ documentation sites, yet their debounced search queries weren’t being aborted as you typed. I had brought this up in our shared Slack before when I was just a vendor to them us (weird), but it wasn’t a priority and never got fixed. It was extra frustrating because the race condition on the query was apparent enough that search would sometimes feel low quality since it would return results for a query many characters before the user was done typing.
