Stan output is not deterministic #172

Closed dp-rice closed 1 year ago

dp-rice commented 1 year ago

We're providing a random seed, but the Stan output is not deterministic. Maybe the seed is only used for the HMC sampler and we need to pass a seed explicitly to the RNG part of the code.

For some reason, I'm not seeing this anymore. At least fits.tsv and fits_summary.tsv seem to be deterministic. It could be that it was always deterministic and the input was changing without me realizing it. It could be that we're not saving the non-deterministic stuff in the repo anymore.
