I'm a big fan of lightweight, automated tests. Despite that, I still default to manual verification. Usually I do both. Automated tests omit a certain type of feedback that I think…

This inspired us to do a little exploration. We used the top cited papers of a few authors to produce a list that might be interesting, and to do some additional analysis. Take a l…

But falling behind is very different than "being done." I think the original tweet is very much an exaggeration, and agree with the point made here. Google is no where close to "be…

Maybe you're right. But I'm not convinced. I feel like the mass centralization of content is starting to unwind a bit. As things scale the generalized sources usually become less v…

Yup, I definitely agree that they're harder (and noted this). But I'm not sure I agree with your second point. Or rather, I think there's some nuance to it. Sure, using AI to treat…

Which is why it's important for folks to start applying AI to more interesting (but harder, more nuanced) problems. Instead of making it easier for people to write emails, or targe…

I haven't jumped on the GraphQL train yet, largely for a lot of the reasons the original author calls out. I see the benefits, but they don't outweigh the costs of converting our e…

Yup, that's right.

Yup, this is a known limitation: > What are the limitations? There are several known limitations. Tables are currently extracted from PDFs as images, which are not accessible. Math…

I agree! Maybe we'll work on vi bindings next...

We don't. We extract the content and present it as a single document. Page anchors can be used for navigating between sections. We present a table of contents that makes this easy.…

Yup, we've tried a lot of different tools in combination. All of them have their own trade-offs and extraction errors. This system uses GROBID and some extraction techniques of our…

That's the idea! If all goes well we won't need this software anymore. In a best case scenario the publishers start accepting HTML, and gone are the days of having to convert PDFs …

We don't retain the uploaded document. We cache the extracted content, as to make things more efficient. See https://papertohtml.org/about : > What data do we keep? We cache a copy…

Thanks, I'll pass this example along!

Thanks! There's a lot of amazing people here, doing really great work. It's a really inspiring place to be. I feel really lucky to work with such great people on interesting, impor…
