Sorry, but this idea is just dumb.
- amelius 5y agoYou hit Ctrl+A, and the browser uses off-screen buffers to analyze the entire text.
- aaaaaaaaaaab 5y agoOff-screen buffers? So now you’re prescribing a particular rendering architecture for every app to follow? I thought this was supposed to be just a generic sandbox with a canvas, with no strings attached, but now you require everything to be present in off-screen buffers for your OCR to work? Firstly, it won’t be generic anymore, and secondly, it will also be extremely inefficient.
