Rust core processing documents in milliseconds beats slow Python OCR wrappers.
Nostalgic image-to-geometry algorithm with satisfying real-time preview, but it's a demo more than a tool.
4-month VAE research artifact; reconstruction quality matters less than you'd think.
Tackles real localization pain, but author doubts usefulness; novelty or production tool unclear.
Sample-level versioning for ML pipelines—solves real compute-waste problem with clever metadata design.
