A bit off-topic here, but I would say the same thing applies to stackoverflow. Everytime I want to search something within stackoverflow I use google and specify the "site" operator[1]. Something like:

fast string search algorithm site:stackoverflow.com [2]

The results are much better than SO's custom search.

Consider setting up a new "search engine" in chrome. You could alias https://www.google.com.br/search?q=%s+site%3Astackoverflow.c... to 'so', and type: so<tab>fast string search algorithm

And chrome would do the right thing.

I believe you get the same effect by doing the following,

stackoverflow: fast string search algorithm

DuckDuckGo also has the !so shortcut.
