2>/dev/null is a simple flag. More importantly, it works for EVERY command.
And, yes, if I'm doing a find in my own directory, I definitely want to see
those errors. Just stick this in ~/bin/find and have done with it:
#!/bin/sh
case ".$1" in
.-v) shift; exec /bin/find ${1+"$@"};;
*) exec /bin/find ${1+"$@"} 2>/dev/null;;
esac
There's stuff above here
