Capturing the egg price from known egg receipts was the problem I was focused on, but you're right that there was also a filtering problem in the original spec. You get my upvote for continuing to make the problem interesting for me! H

I think at a certain scale we're talking about switching to local trained models which don't have the same operating costs as running a frontier model for OCR. That would reduce the ongoing costs significantly. Might take longer t

Absolutely loved the article, the process, and the results. Hated the price. You could pay a human to read receipts, 1 every 30 seconds (that’s slow!), $15/hr (twice the US federal minimum wage!), plus tax and overhead ($15x1.35) comes

"Two-phase immersion cooling is not dead. ZutaCore and Chemours are both pushing toward PFAS-free solutions that could revive the segment. But the timeline for commercial-scale availability of those alternatives stretches through 2026

You must have had limited exposure to uncreative types. You might be shocked to find there are people that can do nothing more than follow checklists. Sometimes it's a lack of capacity for novel thinking. Sometimes it's fear cause

I’m not entirely sure how your response maps to my comment, but indeed the airstream impacts on weather cause a much warmer climate in much of Europe compared to North America. This can confuse many folks when guessing the latitude of locat

People's grandmothers know what AI is and many have used it, even outside the west. Probably zero grandmothers outside the west, and very few grandmothers within the west, know what NFT even stands for.

I was talking with someone solidly in Gen X that described their desire to write out longer form documents by hand on paper rather than typing them up. The process of typing helped them work through the content better than typing. In an ana

One would think that any nerds that knowledgeable could divide by 86400 to make the article more accessible for the rest of us though.

yeah the shine in the top left of the rectangle was what led me to think it was a mirror, which from my experience would have been really strange for the types of nerds that would work in windowless rooms back in those days. The black cable

Oh that's a breaker box (or a box of wiring of some sort), not a mirror!

Too bad there isn’t a complementary rule about not asking “is it just me or does this article read like AI slop?” I’m so over these comments. Sure I can flag them but I feel like it deserves a special call out.

I personally prefer to approach the topic of "safety" by considering the trade-offs. The knowledge gained through ultrasound significantly outweighs potential risks associated with it. People still continue to play the lotto think

well, maybe wearables that provide some sort of internal visual scans. But with CT scans delivering 70 times the radiation of a typical x-ray, I think I'd prefer not wearing a portable chernobyl. Maybe a wearable ultrasound instead? ed

Didn’t you just describe the literal difference between consumer grade RAM that is soldered to a consumer format board vs a memory chip sold to a company to be soldered onto a product of the other company?

I think you’re the one with it backwards. You continue to view this through the self-centered eyes of the consumer. But you’re actually the product so your perspective doesn’t matter to the seller or the buyer. That’s why this problem doesn

If that were true, it wouldn’t be such a popular problem. Right? Clearly HN is falling into the same pattern of all the other sites. Engagement hacking blah blah blah.

I meant from the author’s perspective. Clickbait is too easy, which is probably why it’s so popular.
