@jww - I know, I'm 5 years late, but: search for [nvidia*]. This will get you ALL the tags related to nvidia :)

More coffee might have shortened that time. :-) The thing is, there are a bunch of nvidia tags, so synonomizing nvidia with [nvidia-graphics-card] would return misleading results, excluding the other tags. Entering nvidia in the search box on the tag page returns everything. If we synonomize it, someone else will complain that their search returned only partial results. Search with the word "nvidia" instead of the tag. | |

synonomized tag isn't really - Not true. I wasted about 5 minutes trying to figure why searching for [nvidia] was producing 0 results. It broke usability on the site. I also could not find anything related to SoCs or AI. This is what happens when engineers make usability decisions. They argue for cases that don't exist in practice, and other engineers with no common sense agree with them.

In any event, a separate, synonomized tag isn't really needed because as soon as the user starts typing nvidia in the tag area, [nvidia-graphics-card] automatically pops up. | |

Stack Overflow and Super User of full of the video card use. Does anyone use the term Nvidia to mean the company and not the video card? | |
