viig99··on Renowned MIT Computer Scientist Richard Stallman Defends Epstein
Woah, those are some extreme views,

Chafing at the idea of a legal age of consent was a favorite theme of his, per his earlier blog posts. In 2003, he said, “I think that everyone age 14 or above ought to take part in sex, though not indiscriminately. (Some people are ready earlier.)”

In 2006, he said it wouldn’t so bad for an adult man who worked for the Department of Homeland Security to have sex with a 14-year-old, as one government employee had allegedly propositioned: “Supposing she had voluntarily had sex with him, presuming that they used a condom and suitable contraception, it would have done no harm to either of them.”

Same here!
viig99··on Chennai, India's sixth biggest city, has a water crisis
The water woes can be solved easily if people with sense start rain water harvesting. Every year Chennai drowns in rains, if one can store all the excess water there should be no water scarcity in the summer, it's just people not giving a fuck. Too worried about stupid shit like language, cows and dick head politicians to care about drinking water.

viig99··on Amazon Textract – Extract text and data from virtually any document
No open source ocr doesn't work that great, i work for a telecom company, and we process over millions of documents a month, we built everything in house and now are able to process it at almost 40cents per 1000 documents. It a long process to process huge documents like payslips which require text boundary detection, word identification, spatial clustering and writing parsers (depends on word, segment, and clustering probabilities) which can extract required fields out of the documents.
