Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

Sourcegraph is no longer Open Source
[4] is not really a usable 'product'. Livegrep (https://github.com/livegrep/livegrep) was inspired by it and is very usable.
[3] used to be a Google open source project as well, but it fell out of maintenance, and Sourcegraph took it over. It powers most of the basic regex/literal search in Sourcegraph.
Mozilla's code is searchable in Searchfox (https://searchfox.org/) which uses the indexer from Livegrep, combined with their own Git indexer and language-specific cross reference databases.
OpenGrok (https://github.com/oracle/opengrok) is also rather well known, but I have found it to have a slightly worse UI than alternatives.

Improving GitHub Code Search
My job uses https://oracle.github.io/opengrok/ and I'm generally happy with it. It has some problems with special character searches at times but generally does what I want. It's certainly better than code search in our on-prem github instance.

Is there a tool that would allow me to query (structured search) a codebase?
I used it a long time ago, but I see this is still around: https://oracle.github.io/opengrok/

Debugging Silent Create Action Failures in Rails
If you have trouble finding it among the other stuff happening in the server log, well, so do I! I recommend learning how to programmatically search through your terminal output. Providing a universal method for this is challenging because various tools and terminal emulators implement this functionality differently. Another option would be to use tools like grep or the_silver_searcher (a favorite of mine) to search the file where your dev logs are written to. This file is located at log/development.log in a Rails project.

Rust crate rg typosquatting/redirect to ripgrep
Why guess when [there are installation instructions for various platforms on the README](https://github.com/ggreer/the_silver_searcher#installing)?
Also, although it may not be easy to remember, is this really a problem in practice given the installation count in most contexts is one? If there's a context where it's installed regularly, that's a one-time addition to an install script, Dockerfile, etc. in my experience. Do you have a situation that isn't amenable to that?

Linux drivers development
The kernel changes a lot, so the books would get outdated quickly. But you can find simple / similar drivers, and read the code. Usually there are some documentation / comments on the headers before the function declarations. The Elixir and the Silver Searcher will help a lot.

how to list places where a function is being used?
My "vim" way of finding all the places where a function is being used: using visual mode, marking the function, and passing it to :Ag (silversearcher) The problem with this is that it is not 100% accurate, since it will just look for things with the same name, so I was thinking about using the LSP to make things more robust.

How do I tell helm-ag to ignore files with a particular file extension?
Helm-ag is an interface to the ag, silver-searcher, so check the docs for ag. For example, ag automatically ignore some files if there is a .gitignore with some file patterns, or you could use .agignore.
What are some alternatives?
hound - Lightning fast code searching made easy
ripgrep - ripgrep recursively searches directories for a regex pattern while respecting your gitignore
sourcegraph - Code AI platform with Code Search & Cody
fd - A simple, fast and user-friendly alternative to 'find'
Glean - System for collecting, deriving and working with facts about source code.
Visual Studio Code - Visual Studio Code
Javet - Javet is Java + V8 (JAVa + V + EighT). It is an awesome way of embedding Node.js and V8 in Java.
intellij-plugins - Open-source plugins included in the distribution of IntelliJ IDEA Ultimate and other IDEs based on the IntelliJ Platform
zoekt - Fast trigram based code search
