I wrote a minimal implementation of this feedback loop here: https://github.com/Ichigo-Labs/p90-cli But if you’re looking for something robust and production ready, I think installing Claude Code with npm is your best

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. Meanwhile the good abstractions are like a nice knife, that ca

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 go” solutions (besides cloud ones, which were quite good with

I’ve done a lot of OCR work and tesseract is nearly a decade out of date at this point.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. From what I’ve seen, GPT-4V completely smokes tesseract, but th

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 static analysis checks, without a bun

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.

This looks like a nice piece of work. This area and adjacent tooling areas are ripe for improvement.

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 calls, as needed. You could consider the reducer the model and

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 when it could be a plain record. I don’t use an interf

Great idea. I think UI/UX designers would love a tool like this. Especially if they could import React components made by the development department.

This chapter encapsulates much of data oriented design: https://www.dataorienteddesign.com/dodbook/node5.html

I wrote a VS code extension and pre-commit hook for this kind of thing: https://github.com/elanning/checkr It's a nice inbetween solution for quick stuff not worth writing a full static analysis plugin for.

Greetings Greg, really great work. Thanks for sharing this. Now my greedy request: if you could take all this technology and make a blogging platform for developers, I would be greatly appreciative! And happy to pay a monthly fee! I really

This is a good example of why understanding the principles of statistics can come in handy.

Awesome hackathon project. The font scroll is great 90s website nostalgia.

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 syntax looked so clean and yet power

As I understand it, overfitting is low bias, but high variance. It's perfectly fitting 5 linear data points with a complex polynomial, when the underlying function was a line. Thus the polynomial doesn't generalize well to more da

Sounds like you have both the experience and talent necessary. I'm guessing it's only a matter of time until your next success.

I enjoyed this prose. Most of what I read is curt and devoid of personality.

Yes, many have found good success with putting a minor bit of UI state into the "mostly pure" view components. It works well until some other part of the app needs to uncheck the checkbox due to some new business requirement. This

by elanning 5y ago
Good question. Pure view components are incredibly easy to test and reason about. State management usually gets put into hooks that the controller component uses, which are also easier to test. You can have a nice set of unit tests for the

The single best piece of React knowledge I've found is an old idea from functional programming and MVC. Separation of components into 2 groups. Pure "view" components that contain no state and are oriented around display. And

I wrote a small VS code extension and pre-commit hook that might meet 80% of your needs: https://github.com/elanning/checkr It is just simple regex at this time, but hopefully I can add something like CCGrep syntax in

That was a fun read. Especially the funny bit at the end. Did you consider making this a progressive web app?
