Yeah, I've found in the rare times that I require knowledge of coding, such as CSS or JS or something, or really any IT-related topic, I can't start with a search engine, because it's clogged with noob-level glurge. One thing I've found is that certifications offering CEUs often reward entry-level bloggery, and so it's these guys who are just writing to fulfill a requirement, writ large, like thousands and thousands, and they're all ad-supported and indexed. The other type you'll find is a vendor who blogs and they've basically written an opinionated advertisement for some product they're selling, and that's not neutral tech info. The best bet, as it always has been, is to seek out the vendor documentation, the standards bodies, the authors who've published books and established themselves as authorities on the topic. These sources are not difficult to find! They may sometimes cost you money, but they're not obscure and they're not hidden. Go find them. As an educator, I get so frustrated with any colleague who encourages and instructs students to go ask an LLM or go use Google Search, because they're the bottom-of-the-barrel worst places to find and learn information. My tech interview for $currentjob actually hinged on using Search to find some info, and I paused a moment to explain to the interviewer how Search results were clogged with crap, and we'd need to separate out a diamond in the rough. The compounded problem also, is that students who do use LLM or Search will frequently find comprehensive solutions to the questions they're asking, and they will be sorely tempted to copy-paste those into their homework, and then we have to deal with it. A disservice to the student all around, who never learned anything to begin with, because they didn't even try.
