I didn't watch the video, but I did try the search engine, with useless
but certainly humorous results.

I plugged in my name, "Norm Matloff," and got, "Assuming 'Norm" is a
probability distribution," which it expanded to "normal distribution."

I then plugged in "Matloff," and got back "Interpreting 'Matloff'
as 'meatloaf.'"

:-)

I'm sticking with Google. :-)
