Agree with you - google's search results have radically changed in the last year (my perception). Far more attitude with little or no information. You might have to go to page 2 or 3 to see actual technical data.

Google seems to look at your search history and develops a "primary interest" for future searches. If you spend a lot of searches looking for stuff related to your language of choice, .NET, javascript, and a bunch of other code topics, it should, over time, start preferring those results over others.
However, if you start mixing a bunch of other searches into your history, the code results can start to get muddled as Google no longer knows what your primary interest is, or it's moving away from code. I run into that a lot as I do lots of media and political fact checking.

Just wait until Google's Topics, their proposed replacement for cookies, comes into effect...

That's going to be "fun" for sure...

Given everyone is now trying their best to block third-party cookies these days, obviously Google pretends they're useless and want everyone to use the tracking method they are proposing instead. Which obviously will only exist to benefit them.
Give it enough time, then people find reasons to block it too. Then they'll come up with yet another alternative...lather, rinse, repeat.

To return results that must include a word or phrase, wrap that word in quotation marks in the search request:
"javascript" force to a number

Ask the duck... duckduckgo.com

In my searches I found that Google presented far more relevant results than DuckDuckGo or Bing. Maybe now that has changed.

I bailed on google search years ago, it's been Duckduckgo for me ever since (every now an then I'll use dogpile.com).

Rather than get a new laptop, I decided to get a desktop and keep my current laptop as a backup. It's still beefy enough to run dual displays at 4k with the external monitor running at 144Hz, so it's a good backup.
And since this is the Internet, I have to preface this by saying, yes I know building a desktop myself will save a few hundred bucks. Back when I was a kid, I valued the learning and saving money. These days I value my time so I can get back to making money and watching TV. So, paying a tiny premium for someone else to do the leg work is fine by me. With that out the way...
Anyone use NZXT? I just ordered a desktop from them, and I'll admit I'm always slightly worried when not getting to see a build in person first. But, from the Googling I haven't heard anything bad about them, save for they used to have airflow issues with their cases. That's supposed to be fixed now though.
Side note, I won't be doing much gaming on it. But, I do buy gaming computers because they tend to be the most beefy.

I built mine myself, not to save some bucks but to force me to read about the current components and keep up-to-date. My last build was around 15 years ago.
Keep us posted when you receive it and start working with it.

I mean, I still know the basics but I couldn't tell you if SLI is still considered nice or not. A lot of stuff is the same though, we're still using DDR for instance, it's just 5 instead of 3, etc.
At least it's a desktop, so if I ever get that itch then I can swap stuff out in the future. Will be years away though, this one should last me a few.

I've built my own desktops for the last 30 years, until my current one that I bought a few months ago. I was shocked to find that it was actually cheaper to buy a Dell and get the components I wanted than build it myself, by a couple hundred dollars--what I used to save by doing it myself.

Really? Dell's awesome. I was so close to buying a new XPS laptop from them. The only thing that stopped me was I couldn't push 144Hz from an external monitor. Still, they're good computers.
