Ask HN: Anyone got any tips for asking Google programming questions?
I don't think I am the only one that has, in the past year or maybe longer, had issues with searching for anything programming related.
It really seems to me since the advent of AI based content generators every single site on the front page of Google (beyond StackOverflow) is some regurgitated content that has clearly just either been directly lifted from StackOverflow or is plain AI generated and often incorrect.
Today I encountered a first, at the top of the search results for an ordinary programming question was a Youtube video. It linked through to this channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCaZL4eLD7a30Fa8QI-sRi_g/videos
If you watch one of these videos you'll see this is absolutely insane and the automatically generated content has gotten out of control.
Is there any way to either report or get rid of these results from my search results? Might be worth given three specific examples you’re looking for instead of wasting most the text complaining about not finding things. Assuming you know how to limit results to Stack Overflow, right?
