    It looks great, nice work. I’m impressed at the quick development too.

    I know the feeling. I like to picture it as a kitchen, and those “bat-whatever” gadgets are like those silly infomercial cooking tools that are only good for one specific thing. Me…

    Big mistake on my part; I should clarify I fine-tuned both PaddleOCR and TrOCR on large amounts of data specific to my domain. I cannot speak on the best out of the box “ready to g…

    I’ve done a lot of OCR work and tesseract is nearly a decade out of date at this point. It is not a serious technology for anything requiring good accuracy or minor complexity. Fro…

    Also plugging my related project: https://github.com/Ichigo-Labs/cgrep From the comments in this thread, it seems a lot of people have built or needed an easy way to quickly create…

    Rest in peace to one of the greats. You might want to consider reading The Design of Design if you liked The Mythical Man-Month.

    Wow this could be incredibly useful for a lot of applications. I’m excited to see the new wave of tools this could spawn.

    This looks like a nice piece of work. I hope the author continues on it, or other fun hobby projects.

    I review Posthog PRs occasionally. In addition to this, they’re also open source. Seems like a cool place.

    This is typically a good way to organize React projects, in my experience. A few top-level components which hold state with a useReducer and have a few functions to make backend ca…

    This reminds of a principle I use. Always use the weakest type for the problem at hand. I don’t use a struct/record where a simple dictionary or tuple would do. I don’t use a class…

    I believe Norvig later clarified that the negative correlation was untrue or statistical noise.

    I recently wrote a little Regex domain specific language that's translated into regular JavaScript regex. I was inspired by CCGrep: https://arxiv.org/abs/2003.05615 because its syn…
