Comment on Long Read: Lessons from Building Semantic Search for GitHub and Why I Failedparent

Comments

While having a bot that auto-replies with "similar issues" pointers might make sense at a large scale (to relieve maintainers), I usually prefer to do this manually at my current scale, knowing that there's one particular instance where I pointed someone in a given direction, and want to either reuse/modify a code example block, or stitch together semantically unrelated but relevant comments & discussions together.

You might want to talk to Jovi [1] about that, he's doing something very similar.
