In last week's issue, I wrote about how you can find gold in GitHub Search. One annoying thing with GH Search is that you can't exclude certain repos, meaning I would have to manually filter out anything from the CNCF because I already know what is being indexed (lots of YAML). Then I got a DM from my buddy Samson Goddy and said, "check out Sourcegraph search."

My mind was blown ⤵️

This week we are testing @sourcegraph which can do regex searches on both GitHub & GitLab. 🤯

I have been using Sourcegraph all week for Curiefense, and it cuts my search time down by ~2 minutes, which is ~10 min a week, ~40 min a month, you get the idea. So a huge thank you to a fellow non-code contributor, Samson!
