Archive.[today|is|ph|il|md|etc.] has been unresponsive for the last few days. I've searched around a bit but haven't seen any reporting as to what's up with the site(s). Does anyone have any information about this? Speculation? Wild rumors?

This was not supposed to become a product. When PaddleOCR-VL-1.6 dropped, independent benchmarks put it at the top of document parsing models. I had to try it. I needed a provider, but there simply isn't one ready for production that I would trust. So i set one up myself. I assumed that even after getting it running, serving a vision-language model would be expensive. It turns out the opposite is true. Once I had it running properly, the cost was absurdly low. At proper GPU utilization, the cost is only around $1 per 1,000 pages. The nearest competitors are either much lower quality (Azure Read) or absurdly expensive (Extend or Reducto). Even Mistral OCR 4 which is really good and pretty cheap is still 4x more expensive. So I had to share it. I made the endpoitns public, and vibe-coded a simple dashboard. Let me know what you think!

I'm a long-time macOS user and I just want a change. Curious what people here actually use every day and what made you stick with it. Curious if you also switched from a Mac too. I'd like to get out of the "walled garden" ecosystem.

Microsoft has seemingly abandoned quality and craftsmanship a long time ago. But more recently they are rushing to force-feed us unfinished AI and web apps just so they can stay in the AI hype race. Call it teams, copilot, LinkedIn I've never liked anything that comes out of Ms lately, yet our company defaults to MS. At what point should we tell our employers to say no to MS treating paying customers as unpaid bulk beta testers?
