Can I just say thank you ripgrep?

In my usecase ripgrep is killer, I use it both to search through something around 10GB of a monorepo, and to search through 400GB of textfiles (custom format, similar to json) every day and not having rg performance would make my life considerably worse.

When you have very large sets of data to search through the difference from rp to other solutions is like night and day.

How would that be better? If there is any code that they don't want to see, they would just not show you.

Android and ios are both completely opaque operating systems... stop pretending they are not.

and that is because the whole pseudo terminal system was always there not encumbered by cmd wonkiness. That plus filesystem semantics alone make a unix like system miles ahead of microsoft.

benchmarksgame is not a serious comparison site, it's in the name.

The comparisons they do is not of idiomatic code... for example in python they do a lot of array programming and don't use numpy (http://www.numpy.org/). So for most languages the results in there are completely meaningless.

you can also read the bash script before running it... and it is infinitely more secure than just trusting a hash as your friend and the mirrors can be compromised without you being able to notice (and it has happen before).

it is a https url, the same you use to move funds in your bank... If they provided a rpm/deb package it either would not be signed or you would have to download the public key and the package over https.

In the end is the same level of security, this one at least you can first download the script, read it and then pipe it to bash much more easily than a rpm/deb.
