How does this compare to dots.ocr? I got fantastic results when I tested dots.

https://github.com/rednote-hilab/dots.ocr


Ocrbase is CUDA only while dots.ocr uses vLLM, so should support ROCm/AMD cards?

How about CPU?

dots.ocr requires requires a considerable amount of computational resources. If you have Mac device with ARM CPU(M series), you can try my dots.ocr.runner(https://github.com/jason-ni/app.dots.ocr.runner).

There is a pipeline solution with multiple small specific models that can run only with CPU: https://github.com/RapidAI/RapidOCR


Jason, your runner looks interesting. I am using debian linux on my laptop with an intel cpu and nvidia gpu (proprietary nvidia cuda drivers). Should I be able to get it working? What is your speed per page at this point? Thank you

I switched from Nova to Smart Launcher a couple years ago because it allowed me better customization of app groups - although I did need to work on the config a bit. I like it.

Producer has minimal margins and cannot lower their price. Consumer, at least in the immediate future, has more money to spend. Never were the curves going to be any different in this case. Only in the case of a poorer country placing tariffs on a wealthier country with higher margins, would this be any different than the blindingly obvious outcome here.

The only fruit of this is real economic pain for the American consumer. But that was likely the goal, so mission accomplished I guess.


I am sure that could be useful with proper post-request research.

As a technique though, never ask an LLM to find errors. Ask it to either find errors or verify that there are no errors. That way it can answer without hallucinating more easily.

What I do is both ask it to explain why there are no errors at all and why there tons of errors. Then I use my natural intelligence to reason about the different claims.


Can somebody tell me what is a normal "cost of doing business" level of bot traffic these days? I have way too much bot traffic like everybody else, but I don't know if I am an outlier or just run of the mill. I get about 100k bot hits a day, presumably because I have about 350k pages on my site.

Esports vertical: I get about 5-20b bot hits per day (unwanted; includes both IA, brute forcer, "security" scanners, wp-admin/ requests), 1.5m google spider (search; respectful of crawl delay), and about 50-100m human (largely mobile).

For unwanted bots I serve incorrect information -- it's online gaming match history without much text so requests flagged as unwanted bots will, instead of heavy database queries, get plausibly random numbers -- seeded by the user so they stay stable -- KDA, win/loss rates, rankings.

A few dozen million distinct pages but they are numeric stats for user profiles, match stats with little to none paragraph form of text.


Well you must be an outlier! 100-200x bot to human traffic is a lot. AI bots likely focus on stats / technical info if they happen to be tuned to discern, and there is money in sports stats; so you are a target.

It looked like your jeans might be knock-offs. Customs violation. Time to flashbang your kids.

Security question:

Could we have the same level of security - or very close to it - from requiring a secure enclave like a vm running on the device for banking apps with hardware passthrough, or would there be no way for that vm to verify it has actual hardware passthrough and that it's not being tampered with?

That way you would just get the entire vm with the app from the Play Store or Apple, and nobody needs to worry about root?


I might be paranoid, but I like that my bankcards are in a metal case (I got it because it's water/dustproof, but I like the bonus) and I like that Wallet only activates the rfid for a second, then I'm no longer broadcasting.

Even if someone cloned your card info, they couldn't use it to do anything.

Rent would go through the roof and it would become even harder to get out of the rental trap. It's better to just have a very low hard cap on the number of properties anyone can own.


People being less likely to buy multiple houses is going to make it harder for people to buy a primary residence?


You think landlords won't pass their costs on to tenants? How do the tenants save when their rent is even more unaffordable than it is now?
