I learned more about Granicus-the-company and the systems hosting this data than I ever imagined. I learned about #OCR and data formats and using waste products as user-facing products. All leading to where we are today:
8.5 million pages. 748 municipalities. And growing every day.

@gedankenstuecke I don't know a way to copy text from the camera stream without Google Lense. For copying text from a photo, you can use the Google Photos app. It doesn't seem to send the text to Google's servers, but if you want to make sure, install NetGuard to block internet access for the app.
To create PDF documents with OCR, I use OSS Document Scanner

Weil die Frühbucher-Tickets limitiert sind und vielleicht jemand nächsten Sommer Bock auf ne ordentliche Portion Matsch hat, hier der Link zum Ticketportal für das Camp Canis Summer Special 2026. Ich werd' da sein!

Für dieses Jahr gibt's noch Tickets, aber da bin ich in Norwegen.
Was ist Camp Canis? Ein #Canicross #Hindernislauf für Mensch und Hund. Hier geht's nicht um Geschwindigkeit, sondern um Teamwork. Und alles kann, nichts muss.
Today, the 2nd lecture of #ISE2025 took place with an introduction into Natural Language Processing, which will be subject of our lecture for the next 4 weeks.

Drei geschichtswissenschaftliche Forschungsprojekte, drei Mal künstliche Intelligenz: Wie beeinflusst KI historisches Lernen und politische Sinnstiftung? Wie können #LLMs helfen, herabwürdigende Sprache in historischen Reformationsquellen zu erkennen? Und wie können mit #OCR digitalisierte Texte mit künstlicher Intelligenz bereinigt und besser nutzbar gemacht werden?
Eine Zwischenbilanz zum Einsatz von KI in der geschichtswissenschaftlichen Forschung 
Digital History BielefeldKünstliche Intelligenz als Teil geschichtswissenschaftlicher Praxis. Projekte und Perspektiven der Digital History BielefeldAm 27. März 2025 fand der erste diesjährige Projekttag unseres Arbeitsbereichs zum Thema „Künstliche Intelligenz und Geschichtswissenschaft“ statt. Unsere Diskussionen haben uns aufs Neue vor Augen geführt, wie sehr Prozesse in Gesellschaft und Wissenschaft von technologischen Entwicklungen geprägt sind – mit Konsequenzen, die wir erst zu verstehen beginnen. Neben einzelnen Projektvorstellungen haben wir uns auch … „Künstliche Intelligenz als Teil geschichtswissenschaftlicher Praxis. Projekte und Perspektiven der Digital History Bielefeld“ weiterlesen
Anyone who is blind, or who has worked with the blind, knows how expensive our technology can be. This couldn't be more true with relation to braille displays. Even the cheapest costs at least $799, and it's already behind the newest in that line, at $899. This is the Orbit Reader 20 and 20+. Now, a student in India wants to change that by creating a display that is truly affordable (under $50)! Please pass this on, so that we can give him greater recognition within the blind community. Even if it costs a bit more than he initially suspected it would, there is no excuse for the $2,000 to $5,000 average price of such technology when cheaper alternatives can be designed! He is determined to bring this to market, so let's help him do it and show our appreciation for his hard work on this life-changing project!

@Yehuda It is truly amazing on iPhone and Mac, you can directly select text from ANY image, even handwritten, like this. No external software needed, it is built in.
So if you’re using Mastodon on the web, you can press the 
ALT button and then follow the “Detect text from picture” link.
On Mac/iOS, you can select text on images as if they were text by clicking/tapping and dragging and paste that in (might be more accurate; that’s what I did).
PS. This was meant to be a reply to https://mastodon.social/@fatbrit/114215995914155838 but somehow didn’t get threaded correctly (was using the web client instead of Mona. I somehow manage to do that there sometimes. Has happened before.) :)
В #PowerToys добавили ИИшницу для #OCR и и преобразования текста. Радостно! (#НаСамомДелеНет).

@anwagnerdreas @felwert @dingemansemark @christof which is why my idea was to use it for ocr correction suggestions that the editor adds to the actual text as approved or not

I actually even found the smaller models work better on my task anyway

I'm emailing this to myself to run #OCR so I can do #realAltText in the morning.

Wir sind auf der Suche nach einem OpenSource Vertragsverwaltungssystem. Im Idealfall wäre es in die @nextcloud integriert.
Ich stelle mir sowas vor wie PDF via #OCR scannen auf Vollext. Zusätzlich werden Vertragspartner und Schlagworte / Kategorien manuell erfasst um die Suche zu vereinfachen.
Hat da jemand Erfahrungen bzw. Ideen?
I’m still annoyed with the state of #OCR in #Linux (or #FLOSS in general). Not that the need for OCR’ing hasn’t diminished by the years, as more and more of publications are already in electronic form, but every once in a while a need arises. #Tesseract’s quality is #abysmal (and not in Joey’s sense). #ABBYYFineReader used to be the best in #Windows, and once upon a time they provided a #CLI-usable OCR engine for Linux too, but not any more. #atkjuttuja #computers

Searching for early uses of the term "ergative" I came across a Google book published in the early 19th century with the alledged phrase
"ergativ elektrisch werdende".
Here, two-column layout and hyphenation did the trick.
