I get amazing results while programming if I use DuckDuckGo.

I think google dorking make the suggestions better. Also, using bangs on duckduckgo has vastly improved my search results. If you know where to find stuff, you will get good results. For example if I am looking for review or recommendations, I use site:"reddit.com" .

For easy queries DDG seems to be better at showing the primary source. For more complex stuff I still find Google much better - often enough the right result, which is ranked highly on Google, can't be found at all with DDG.
