They've been at this for a while. They do have offerings you subscribe for and pay monthly. They have also consistently offered an option for each of those offerings to bring your own or self host. They've earned my trust.
Reputation guides your behavior toward that person. But they're no longer around. There is no behavior toward them. They're gone. Their reputation is no longer relevant.
Yeah, that's not how things work. Senate can't pass anything unless the House agrees and the House is representative of the population. Also, footnote, we've been structuring governments this way for thousands of years. Rome, etc.
Industry includes FOSS and artistic endeavors, anything that’s done professionally.
My intent was to exclude research efforts, which is fundamentally different from engineering, which is a practical concern and not a “get it to just work” concern.
There is no market for such a thing. At that price point, you get a personal chauffeur. That’s what rich people do and he can do stuff that a self driving system never can.
The point of engineering is to make something that’s economically viable, not to slap together something that works. Making something that works is easy, making something that works and can be sold at scale is hard.
So an invoice attached to an email as a PDF is sent digitally ... those unfamiliar with PDF will think text and data extraction is trivial then, but this isn't true. You can have a fully digital, non-image PDF that is vector based and has what looks like text, but doesn't have a single piece of extractable text in it. It's all about how the PDF was generated. Tables can be formatted in a million ways, etc.
Your best bet is to always convert it to an image and OCR it to extract structured data.
persistent memory plus cron job lets you do stuff that you can't do with just codex/claude code/opencode
