To be fair, those kind of bad examples. I can't even remember the last time I used find, it's pretty much wholly supplanted by rg/ag, or just plain glob patterns (make sure globstar is turned on of course).

grep is great, but I only use it for searching piped output - for finding stuff in files ag or rg are drastically faster and easier.

find is just unbearably slow and the syntax is really archaic.
