What do you then do with the contaminated yeast?

How do you prevent it from entering the food chain again?

There was this sailor who always did extra knots and shit on his ropes and lines. Because he wanted it to be extra safe.

Then in a storm the ship sank because he couldn't undo that shit quickly enough.

I guess you can tank your software project too by too much or wrong testing.

I really don't like the tone of this article. Author, please change the tone to something more less aggressive.

Try https://github.com/ocrmypdf/OCRmyPDF - it uses Tesseract behind the scenes and it absolutely brilliant.

Lucky you. I just got iterate answers like "it's just the way it is" and "oh it's too advanced and you wouldn't understand it".

Pardon my language, but seriously fuck those teachers. If it's too advanced then at least let me come to the conclusion myself and have something to look forward too.

I think a distributed OCR project is needed. Problem is that a lot of books are PDF scans and missing raw text. OcrMyPdf does a pretty good job of is but it's cpu intensive.

This is why I can't use AliExpress. Ordering by price+shipping is truly an awful experience. The people in charge of that feature take incompetence to a new level.
