Fair point.
So what about Tensor flow and some local LLM to do the job?
You just need to find a reliable LLM in HuggingFace, for example.

Ok so from the error, you have a version of pillow that is incompatible.
You have to downgrade pillow to version 11.
That’s the first step.
EDIT: Sorry just saw the rest of your comment. Do you really have to use that tech?
You have other alternatives. Amazon AWS has a service for handwriting ocr, can’t remember the name though.
You can also have a look at this, but it’s paid: https://www.handwritingocr.com/
More ocr alternatives: https://github.com/michaelben/OCR-handwriting-recognition-libraries
+1 for tesseract. I knew about this one a while ago. It may not recognise all handwriting, but you can train it to get better at it.
So if you follow the instructions from the link again, can you make it work?
Ok excellent.
Let’s go step by step.
You say you tried to configure pip but failed.
What was the error? Any logs? Did you follow the steps from the link you provided?
Depending on your question, maybe you have a lemmy group (sublemmy?) for the tech you are working with.
Or you can try ask here.
Myself and others can try and help you.
I’m test driving Deezer as Spotify alternative.
Looks really promising. You can even import your Spotify playlists and music to Deezer.


See what happens when you vote with your wallet?


I’m sure there are projects being planned but I’m not aware of anything in specific.
This whole EU migration is still quite recent so people and Companies are using existing European tech, and then later might come up with their own projects.


I’m also onboard doing this and I’ve been doing what I can.
I use Proton mail with custom domain, and Proton pass and basically all Proton apps.
Got a 2nd hand phone where I flashed sailfish OS.
I have my own private cloud using Hetzner VPS and backed up everything from iCloud into my own cloud.
I’m also a software developer and will start soon working on some projects, but still need to come up with a plan.
For now I’m just migrating everything to existing European alternatives.
Any ideas for future projects just share here.


“Sir, what about Greenland?”
“Who?!”
The reality is it’s incredibly difficult to cut ties with the Meta tech, as we got so used to it since the Facebook early days, then WhatsApp, then Instagram, etc.
There are alternatives but to convince half world to change is a huge task. Human Beings resist change by default and stick to something that works.
It’s also convenient because you can create an event and your friend are right there to be invited, so it’s an effortless task.
If you want an alternative you need to have something convenient, effortless and very easy to use.
Something like an app that lists events in your area, you select one event and then share it with your contacts. Or an app that shares integration with Facebook but does create invites outside Facebook.
There are plenty alternatives and ideas.

You’re right.
And this happens to be the richest man in the world, that can very easily influence Trump.
As a Company, of course you don’t want to pick up a fight with Trump.
And this is the saddest part: it’s money over morals, money over needs, money over lives…
It’s money money money.
And every single Company that does this it’s a huge disappointment…

Someone please explain to me this:
If you’re an Apple or Google play developer, if your app steps out of the line by violating a single policy, your app gets instantly removed, then you need to make an appeal, blah blah blah. It’s an headache.
And yet, Grok is allegedly (never saw those generated images, just reports) creating these inappropriate images and still available in app stores.
Shouldn’t Grok be removed from them?
Wait what?!
I guess I need to look for another alternative. 😞
I’m using Qwant and have no complaints so far.
In terms of search results it’s quite accurate and I’m happy.
But time will tell if I stick with it or not, as for now I’m still test driving it.


As a rule (at least for me), never never ever accept take home assignments or tasks that either require full control of your pc, or requires you to pull some sketchy repository from GitHub.
That’s one way to get infected with malware and potentially have your data stolen.
If you have to absolutely do this, do it on a VM.
But 99.99999% of the cases, there’s no need to install control software to a pc or having a 3rd party lib installed.
If a recruiting company requires this, then it’s a red flag.
You did well. You’ll find something soon.
Stay strong!


US tech is a big pile of garbage.
All of it is to make you addicted, to track you, to influence you, to collect all sort of intel about you, and then use that against you. And they will serve you ads as the cherry on top.
For me they can all disappear and be gone. There are plenty of activities (internet or otherwise) that can be done without that pile of shit.
I have Proton with custom domain as email service, I have my own encrypted backup in an European VPS, have my own private cloud also in European VPS.
Don’t need US garbage.
I said this on Reddit and will say here as well.
As an European, I have nothing against Americans as individuals that like us, are shocked and troubled to what is happening with your current Administration.
And generalising that all Americans should mobilise and fight against their government is not as straightforward as many people here think.
Like us, you guys have families, kids and pets that want to stay united and protect what is most important for you: your family.
But I do have issues with your government and those who support it.
I don’t trust your government, people that support it, your tech infrastructure or any company that aligns with this whole mess.
And that’s why I’m migrating everything to Europe. From cloud, to tech, to operating systems, to socials.
That’s why I just created my Lemmy account, and considering deleting Reddit.
I’m still stuck with Apple’s ecosystem, but will find a way to break free.
I’m a software developer and will start developing apps that will serve me and potentially others, but will be based in Europe and will not depend on others that in any moment can cut off the access just because…
Excellent. So let’s try to do that instead.
From what I can see from the docs, Gradio is used to build a web interface and have a nice UI to visualise things.
Let’s put Gradio aside for now and sort out Pytorch in Docker.
Select your LLM and make sure Pytorch works well with that.
If you run into trouble or get stuck let me known.
I’ll grab my laptop and try it myself.
