Haha, this is an amazing concept. It feels like a satire or an art piece. I love it, but it kind of gives me the "is the world real?" feeling.

Sourcegraph (disclaimer: where I work) code search returns ~2700 results (more than the other 2 linked) and properly matches the "(" (which GitHub's current code search incorrectly ignores). https://sourcegraph.com

Sourcegraph CEO here. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. We are very transparent, have a ton of users, and are open-core, so it's easy to get inspiration from us. :) We want way more devs to be using code search since it'

This issue has been raised before, such as at https://github.com/golang/go/issues/20209 (I was reminded of that by https://twitter.com/peter_szilagyi/status/145515080347229798... ).

Code search is helpful to see if any of your code contains these characters. A bunch of hits found across the top ~2M open-source repositories: https://sourcegraph.com/search?q=context:global+%5Cx%7B202A%... To triage, you

I tried out Deno last weekend for a fun little hack project (syncing a local Markdown file to a formatted Google Doc), and it was awesome. Writing TypeScript code for Deno feels a lot like writing Go (which is a very good thing to me): - op

We're going to remain an independent company, not be acquired. We've got a strong underlying business and tons of future growth (code search has very low penetration today, and we're working hard to change that). If Google ac

We're focused on search. Devs spend most of their time reading and understanding code, not writing code (Copilot) or following stack traces (Sentry). Things like Copilot and Sentry are super interesting, but our role is helping devs re

AI to write code is cool, but you know what’d be even cooler? AI for maintaining, upgrading, improving, and fixing code. After all, devs spend 80%+ of their time doing those things and they’re WAY more painful than writing code imo.

Yeah, I don't see any single code host achieving near-100% market share (or even near-50%, for that matter). That means that multi-code-host ("universal") code search is going to address a much bigger market than code search

Anyone know how this compares to https://www.tonic.ai/ ? Tonic lets you generate data for safe local dev/testing, and they're also open source and have some big customers.
