Notes and references

gollark: I don't think it's different to LIKE from that perspective.
gollark: You can use an external content FTS table, bee apio bee apio bee apio bee.
gollark: If you use FTS with the usual tokenizer thing it has nice features like stemming and deunicodeizing and actual word tokenization.
gollark: If you use the experimental trigram tokenizer with FTS, it will match efficiently using magic.
gollark: Well, if you just do `LIKE`, it has to scan EVERY row of the table and see if it contains the string.
