I got a 250x (4.5s -> 16.3 ms) speedup when using `ruff` in a real world use case. Highly recommend folks migrate from the usual combo of flake8 + isort + many flake8 plugins.

The common thread in the comments here deals with separating content from styling. I dealt with the same issue when I was applying to jobs and tweaked the `yaml-resume` project to suit my needs. [1] It lets you specify the content in a yaml

This is a fantastic article! Though, for the first half, I do think folks would benefit from having a rough understanding of the nuances of hash maps, if I may plug my own rough notes [1] [1] https://github.com/adithyabsk&#x

This really feels like next level stuff--as Jobs would love to note, that's the magic of integration. But, it's really not novel--just someone putting together the building blocks of foundational ML models already out there. I&#x2

Surprised, stylometry is not mentioned once in the article. [1] Unmasking anonymous writers has a rich history, and there are approaches writers with a large corpus have taken to conceal their writing, as well as approaches folks have taken

I wanted to check out the app and found it hilarious that I had to go through a rabbit hole of links to other articles about the app to actually get to a direct link to the app. lithub --> mentalfloss --> WaPo --> AppStore Any idea

If it's on the dark web then they probably know how to use 'ocrmypdf' as well (which uses tesseract under the hood). https://github.com/ocrmypdf/OCRmyPDF
