Making their APIs easy to use like they used to be 10 years ago will be equivalent to releasing their core assets. In the past you could do almost anything from the Facebook API that you could do with their web or mobile app. They release a

In a past job I built a code search clone on top of Kythe, Zoekt and LSP (for languages that didn't have bazel integration). I got help from another colleague to make the UI based on Monaco. We create a demo that many people loved but

I've used both Code Search and Livegrep. No, Livegrep does not even come close to what Code Search can do. Sourcegraph is the closest thing I know of.

Thank you for sharing this link. The Internet Archive is truly a marvel of unequaled value. Didn't know it had such a trove of warez without the risk of pwnage that warez and torrent sites came with.

Software is already having a big impact. Just think of all the tools that allowed us to work from home and not commute during the pandemic and how different the world would have been if we did not have them. A area where software will have
