Great catch. Added. Thanks!

dang, we appreciate all you do. thanks

that's nice of you to say! I must add that tomhow is holding so much of this effort that I can't imagine what it would be like solo

also how the heck do you pull all these related things, do you have a semantic/agentic search bot by now or is this all just from your head?

It should be a semantic search bot and maybe will be in the future, but for now I rely on the method described at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=45546715 and the links back from there.

i vaguely recall about 2 years ago some RAG startup or other did do one for you. i mean this is nothing for a startup and they could use the endorsement ha

No. We only get the dystopian AI features, not the useful ones.
