Example: site:news.ycombinator.com -inurl:item google operators

In the above example, I would probably filter out results having to do with other react hooks so adding `-useState` would help accomplish that. If I am googling specific syntax or an error log, then wrapping it in quotes will do a phrase match and filter out results that don't contain the phrase.

I don't use the `site:` search pattern because just adding `github` does a good enough job and

Another pattern I use is `filetype:pdf`

:thinking: and lastly I nearly always use the tools to filter by results within the past year. That does an okay job filtering out older documentation, tutorials, articles etc

Edit: also `site:stackoverflow.com ruby "Hash#dig"` if you wanted an exact match, etc..

“word”

Verbatim phrase match:

“some phrase”

Verbatim word negation:

-“word”

Verbatim phrase negation:

-“some phrase”
