   Upwork is unmatched

   Although this app, sometimes gets me to my worst... I think it's only fair to call them the best work from home site.

• Insulin pens are driving me bonkers

  I just wanted to say, for anyone reading this far: this is the sort of thing you can hire a programmer to whip up for you to carry around on your phone. u/dark_rug just up and did it, but for anybody else finding themselves with a little spreadsheet to do calculations that they want to work on their phone or in the browser, you can go to a service like upwork.com and put out a request for bids from contract...

• Launch HN: Encord (YC W21) – Unit testing for computer vision models

  This is really cool. The annotation-to-testing-to-annotation-etc. Feedback loop makes a ton of sense, and I'd encourage others who may be confused on this post to look at the Automotus case study https://encord.com/customers/automotus-customer-story/ for the annotation side, but my understanding is the relationship between model outputs and annotation steering is out of scope for that project - do you know of... - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Against LLM Maximalism

  Spacy [0] is a state-of-art / easy-to-use NLP library from the pre-LLM era. This post is the Spacy founder's thoughts on how to integrate LLMs with the kind of problems that "traditional" NLP is used for right now. It's an advertisement for Prodigy [1], their paid tool for using LLMs to assist data labeling. That said, I think I largely agree with the premise, and it's worth reading the entire post. The steps... - Source: Hacker News / 9 months ago

• [D] A model to extract relevant information from a Sample Ballot.

  I essentially want to use a Combo of OCR + NER to attempt to identify this, but I'm not sure NER is well suited for this, as it is not natural language, so there is little context to go off of. I was thinking of perhaps using Prodigy, a data annotation tool, to annotate Candidate Names, Races, etc, and perhaps it will be able to learn off of image data alone wheat these fields tend to look like.

• Sampling leaves from a tree

  I come from a similar application area, where I try to tag (annotation/label) a taxonomy of products iteratively. You are trying something slightly different, AFAIU, labeling a flat set of songs, each song with a set of tags from ontology (directed graph)From an application point of view, this is what taxonomists often do, when migrating products from one catalog to another: mapping one taxonomy to another.
