Long due considering DuckDuckGo is quite developer friendly.

They've got 9000+ bangs now:
">>= operator": https://www.google.com/#q=%3E%3E%3D+operator&*
But it's a sight better than it was before. It actually shows meaningful programming language results. And if I call the operator by it's Haskell name at the same time, I get very good results:
">>= bind": https://www.google.com/#q=%3E%3E%3D+bind&*
Or just the language name:
">>= Haskell": https://www.google.com/#q=%3E%3E%3D+haskell&*

This is great. I feel Google has slowly become too user friendly. My mobile results are always way less technical than my desktop results. If I'm in the car (passenger) and want to look up a problem I'm having while programming, I get mostly related queries that are a simplified version of what I'm looking for. I really believe that the technical crowd drives what becomes popular (app recommendations for family and f…
Google tailors its results to the kind of person it thinks you are. For example, if you immediately search "python", you will get results about snakes. But if you search for programming first, and then python second, it will now give back programming results on the second search. This continues to apply if you searched "programming" last week. This behavior is actually very nuanced and impressive to watch, once you u…
That's because Google is smart and despite the fact that more people know of Python as a snake, when somebody types just "python" into a search query, it's almost definitely true that they mean the programming language. Few people Google for types of snakes.
A similar thing is true for "ruby" and "rust".
Meanwhile, code searching at GitHub completely ignores characters like =, $, {. And, it's case insensitive. Argh.
Fixing that seems like PM101 material, yet here we are in 2017 with this still being a thing...
Earlier quoted context omitted.
When indexing documents (and querying for them), there is a process the terms go through, to split them up and then normalize them so they can be found easier. A trivial example is you want to find "can't" when someone searches for "cant". Typically special characters are removed for several reasons: the vocabulary of terms becomes smaller and saves space and time, you can ignore punctuation (like searching things th…
OK, thanks - that sounds plausible on the face of it, but why wouldn't you store special characters and then ignore them when matching patterns? You could then make an exception for strings in quotes (or some other option for activating a more precise search). Maybe Google hasn't previously thought the extra space/complexity was worth the special treatment but given the relative quantity of data they already index an…
Previously if a document contained "(hello" it would just be stored in the index once: as "hello". With this change, it needs to be stored in the index twice, as "(hello" and "hello", so that people searching either term can find it.
