End of the Week Update - 003

by A.A. Lopez

    Since apparently we’re at war because we have a dumbass president it doesn’t really feel like a good time to write out what’s going on with an end of the week update, but gods damn it I need some semblance of normalcy and this is going to be it. I don’t give a flying fuck that this is only a few weeks old of a blog, but it’s the only consistent thing I have going on that isn’t work.

    Anyways, you can tell how my mood is, so I’ll just get on with what’s happened this week:

• Monday
• Finished the Pseudo-code, the flowchart, and the base logic for the chrome extension tool that a coworker wanted done. It’s coming out nicely.
• Posted the Affirmation Station audio to r/PillowTalkAudio, 2.4k views, 4 upvotes, and about 35 listens, so pretty good for a first time.
• Tuesday
• Have the extension tool up and running, at least a beta version that I was able to show off to a few folks on Wednesday
• Uploaded the devlog for Project://JUNO
• Purchased Lucid subscription for the year\
• Wednesday
• Had an enlightening discussion with the coworker and another to come to more solid decisions about the extension and have a more solid plan for it now
• Thursday
• Worked on the video OST detector and switched from using PyTesseract to EasyOCR which is capturing the instances much more, but still coming up with false positive
• Captures things with an @ symbol very easily
• Captures credits
• Does not capture other instances well and sometimes false positives
• Friday
• Continued on the OST items
• Looked into creating a universal spreadsheet parser to look into doing some freelance data entry on the side
• Saturday
• Adding it in cause why not: got the new video game “Date Everything” so far pretty fun
• Currently writing this update and having my head in my hands as I continue to look at the news
• Hoping things turn around soon…

    That’s about it for this EoW update. Man, I didn’t mean to be such a bummer, but seriously! I don’t know, I just… I really hope there’s at least a bit of small good news tomorrow, like Pepsi Blue is brought back.

    No lesson of the week, too out of it for that. Catch ya next time.
