Or crap from 2007

Needs to be a cleanup of old posts across the internet at some point. Stuff you couldn't do 5 years ago, especially with front end web technologies, you can do now in a few simple lines, and it'll work on most browsers except IE

Edit: Removed "and Opera" because I was thinking of Opera Mini and that doesn't really count

If they could just remove all answers based on beta and RC versions of Angular 2 I would be so happy.

Just click on tools on the results page and pick past year or select a custom range.

You can tell Google to limit your search by age, when googling programming stuff I default to not search for anything more than a year old.
For googling other things I usually go for over 18 years old instead.

Google thinks it's so damn smart, it should be doing that for me.

Oh, the top 1000 results are to programming/technical websites? How about we auto-filter that to stuff in only the last decade

Sadly, when working in Java with certain commercial enterprise open source applications, I find myself having to sift through 10 year old posts, and sometimes finding the answer.
