  My standard habbit when I don't find what I want is to append site:reddit.com site:news.ycombinator.com site:github.com site:stackoverflow.com. Mostly I get what I wanted!

    Which is funny because those results get us human insight into our topics. Most top results now are completely non-sensical SEO generated word dumps. Google's search engine rating programs have failed beyond belief.

      Completely agree, most of the search results are SEO generated. Lets imagine what happens in near future with ChatGPT ?

  Yeah... instead of trying to give more false results with AI, Google should first try to get good result with just simple search (and give me back my booleans operators!!!!)

  In recent years I have to use quotes much more aggressively and use verbatim search almost all the time. Google is getting less and less helpful.
  • dwighttk 4y ago
    Do quotation marks do anything for you?
    • oldgradstudent 4y ago
      Quotes enclosing an expression search for an expression rather then the words (they have to appear together). And quotes enclosing a single word make that word more likely to appear verbatim. But as long you don't select verbatim search, these are more of a recommendation to Google. Just observations, not sure how reliable. YMMV.
