Presumably it's to make copy/pasting or otherwise adding/removing entries easy. In the latter case you have to muck about with WHERE vs AND if you modify the top entry whereas if the immediate condition after WHERE is 1=1 th

It will only give you that codebase if that's what you ask it for. If you ask it for tests it will give you tests. If you ask it for documentation it will give you documentation.

A good trick here is to use the API rather than the web interface and give it access to functions that let it edit files directly. Then you don't have to do the iterations where you ask it for something new and it forgets something ol

It can make multiple function calls. For example I have it hooked up to edit word documents, and I can say "create a word document, add a paragraph describing yourself and then add title 'xyz'" and it will make three se

Surely the example that says these two would be equivalent is wrong: foldl (+) 0 (take n myList) reduce (takeNPlus 10) 0 myList I assume it should be (takeNPlus n)? (or (take 10 myList))

It seems unlikely that this could be accomplished. The fundamental point is to capture a representation of the meaning of original text. If the that meaning is not accessible the embeddings are not useful.

There are no actual footnote marks that connect any statements in the post to the footnotes, so there are no specific claims referenced. But if you read the actual text of the page, they say it compares favorably to 3.5 for some tasks. Wh
