Thats what this should be able to do for you. Feel free to hook it in and see if it works. If so please let me know!

Probably? You could look at hotspots using it and determine a human in the loop must happen. If you do hook this up please let me know, id love to write about it.

Its what I used to migrate to the 6 TB sqlite database... so yes? Depends on your definition of backup. In my case I wanted a way to restore in the case of data loss, so yes. Im sure some pedantic sql admin will disagree with me here.

You are welcome. Id like to see that fork. Perhaps I can fold some of it in.

Tooting my own horn here for search but give https://github.com/boyter/cs a go. You can have a http server up if you like (even modify the templates) and have it sync your repos for you on a schedule you define. Let me

It came to a head with that story about the kid making a clock and getting in trouble. Leo was all in on one side that it was about racism and such, with John suggesting he fell for a media lie. I think John turned out to be right in the en

When Leo cut off Dvroak and CJal I turned out. You really do need that sort of personality for people to bounce off otherwise its less entertaining.

You are welcome. Glad to hear its working for you. I have a few ideas I am working on to improve its relevance too that I hope pan out.

Grep prints out every matching line. For some searches a LLM might do it will get a lot of noise, and it might have to make that search because it cannot be specific. Targeted search can reduce the number of tokens. I suspect this compariso

Interesting. I too have been working in this space, though I took a different approach. Rather than building an index, I worked on making a "smarter grep" by offering search over codebases (and any text content really) with rankin

Been working on https://searchcode.com/ again which I bought back, albeit as code search tool for LLMs. It solves the “should I use this library” by allowing the LLM to inspect search and analyse it before integration. Can

Many Muslims drink anyway. A lot of those in Iran brew wine/beer in their house. Tobacco in Australia has been taxed to the point we have a huge black market for it now. You would have thought people would have learnt from prohibition.

Id be ok with that if wine had the same taste. No alcohol free wine tastes even close, and none of them are good in their own right. Some of the non-alcoholic beers are pretty good though and I am happy to drink them.

I reimagined https://searchcode.com/ since I realised LLMs have issues when it comes to understanding code you want to integrate. It’s useful for looking though any codebase, or multiple without having to clone it. I use it

I read this when it came out and having written similar things for searchcode.com (back when it was a spanning code search engine), and while interesting I have questions about, We routinely see rg invocations that take more than 15 s

The disk cache has a huge impact. However they claim it’s for multiple searches so it should be in it.

Such a good read. I actually went back though it the other day to steal the searching for the least common byte idea out to speed up my search tool https://github.com/boyter/cs which when coupled with the simd upper lo

Its pretty easy to step over those limits. Also localhost and presumably this are good for validating your logic before you throw in roles, network and everything else that can be an issue on AWS. Confirm it runs in this, and 99% of the tim

All of the above. Stop reading the news. It makes you depressed or angry. Go hiking. Walk on the beach. Play with a dog or your children. Climb a tree. Leave the slave slab phone at home, or delete every news and social app. Do not browse t

Chased the wrong thing. It’s the 1% lows that matter more generally.
