Do embeddings convert individual characters or nonsensical words to vectors?
I see that embeddings don't always vectorize whole words, but subwords or even single characters. If for instance the sequence 'ca' from 'cat' is vectorized, what does 'ca' even mean?
what kind of dimensions does it get converted to? I thought that vectors assign meaning to the parsed sequence.
and how does the model build "Cat" from ca + t after vectorizing both ?

pg_durable - Durable SQL Functions And Orchestration For PostgreSQL
pg_durable is a Microsoft developed PostgreSQL extension that integrates fault-tolerant, long-running execution directly into the database.
To understand why this is useful, think about what normally happens if you run a long, complex database job and the server crashes or your connection drops; you lose your progress, and you have to start all over again.
