Apple frustration: Spotlight can’t find apps

I can rarely launch the intended app, as it either never gets selected or it changes before I hit enter.

macOS Sierra Version 10.12.6

I am me! I’m also a scientist minded software engineer who loves reading, running, listening to music, and recording photos and videos and data of all sorts. After earning a biochemistry degree, I lived in San Francisco and Tokyo, and now I find it difficult to stay put. Read more about me and my online life.
