Towards Natural Language Semantic Code Search at GitHub
It is a real cultural problem how engineers get more excited about machine learning than basic usability.<p>GitHub search can't even search for a literal string, let alone a regex.  It can't search a subdirectory.  Ranking is indistinguishable from random.  It's been this way for years.  How about building an actual, usable, basic code search and then getting all fancy with your machine learning?<p>I almost built my own "online git grep for GitHub" last year.
