Slightly off topic - has anyone else noticed that in the last couple years Google results have just become....crap? Like, as a programmer I'm used to googling all sorts of things, but lately it's almost useless. Like, my recent fail was searching for "<class name> C# programming" and......the entire first page had both the class name and C# crossed out and was showing me generic results for programming. Top result was some website offering courses in programming. What the shit Google. I personally think it's the rise of devices like Google Home that's to blame - Google tries to reduce every search query into something that can yield a short snippet that can be read back to you - so it's very aggressive towards highly technical queries that it used to be so good at.
