that's basically exactly what they're talking about. Though deployed in house it could be a nice way to see if the code you want to write already exists in a similar function elsewhere (and therefore perhaps should be refctored to run in both places). It might also catch copy pasters before they ruin a code base too. But otherwise yeah, shitty SO bot.
