The language issue you raise is in part solved by C# and Entity framework. Because of the lazy way it works you can define a single select over a table, then apply extension methods, joins etc.. over the return of this select and you end up

Sorry about the late reply. As someone mentioned Google took over, however that is for organic search traffic. DDG is still one of the highest referring domains, however it has been overtaken by slashdot, cnet, lifehacker etc...

This is something I posted in a Quora question and should hopefully answer it for you. 1. Privacy enabled by default. This certainly helped get traction when the NSA security revelations came around. DDG is not the only privacy conscious se

I belive it was ddg.gg which appears to still work.

A lot of people do it for selfish reasons (in a good way). For example, say you have a website which surfaces information about specific CPU instructions. If you provide an API hook into this information you can expose it to potentially tho

searchcode.com actually did have regex support for a while. Nobody used it. Probably down to how I implemented it more than anything else. I am looking to add it back in sometime in the future once I roll out SPDX support and a few advanced

Thank you. Have emailed you with the details of what I am doing.

Very nice. I tried it against some of my blog posts and I really like the snippets it produced. What licence is the code under? I would like to take some sections of it.

Ah very cool. I have added a watch to your profile so I can see any further developments.

Interesting. This is a university project yes? Will you be looking to open source some of the code, in particular the language parsers. I ask from a purely selfish purpose as I want to integrate this sort of information into searchcode.com

Interesting. It looks like its actually parsing the Java to produce the results as a search for "bing" shows the number of imports and complexity of the code. This would be similar to sourcegraph. I wonder what parser is used and

Has that worked for any largeish webapps at all? I'm especially curious as I would like to do something like this for searchcode. The costs aren't too high but since it has no revenue stream it would help keep things going even if

As someone who's parents are going through this I cannot disagree more. There are circumstances where it does happen.

What I love about sourcegraph is that between it and github search/searchcode you can find pretty much every bit of code you need without resorting to Google. Big improvement to my workflow personally as I always have preferred to find

It would be useful for pulling back pages that have fallen off the internet and are not in the wayback machine. Thats a use case I have hit a few times. I even started backing up useful posts just in case they died. http://gigabl

Sounds good to me. An exposed API is a big boon, and the lack of one is one of the main reasons I started searchcode. Sure, just email me at bboyte01@gmail.com and ill be happy to discuss. Mostly it comes down to not overcrowding the UI and

I am modifying it now to be a little more like github's. I had planned on removing the highlights too, its going to be modified to just affect the portion where the match occurred. Its mostly there as a hangover from when I was not act

Yes, thats my fault. Whats happening under the hood is searchcode is trying to match "MongoDBObject find" exactly, where as Github is going for a looser but phrase heavy search. Its something I am going to change based on feedback
