    It is - it ‘cheats’ by reading off the NTFS MFT, similarly to another indispensable piece of Windows software Everything Search, both of which I miss keenly on my underprovisioned …

    Friend. You gotta write your own comments. It feels so gross to get a response that’s so obviously from an llm, I would rather you not have replied to me at all. I will not be usin…

    Standard always struck me as kind of scummy - it tries to present itself as something bigger than what it really is, which is a tiny CLI wrapper around one guy’s ESLint config. You…

    This is normal, most people are like this. The idea that there’s something out there that you’re just amazing at without even trying very hard is a trap and believing it will destr…

    Very interesting! Is this the state of the art for accurate OCR of tabular PDFs, or is there other work in the space to compare against?
