Just ported my network analytics application CSX (https://t.co/Kcigz8XxPd) to #Vite from Create React App and wow I can't believe I spent so much time working on this using create react app. The speed improvement is insane! 🤩🤩🤩

Introducing Charts.

A collection of chart components that you can copy and paste into your apps.

Built on top of Recharts. Beautifully designed. Open Source.

A common situation in #Python is to have a list of lists that you want to flatten. Here's how to do that using nested list comprehension:

So lets say you have a piece of code that you'd like to execute after waiting for 1 second and make the rest of the code wait for that piece of code to execute. Here's how you do it with promises and setTimeout:

@code Please make it happen. Maybe even for other languages and frameworks too.

@kvlly What do you mean with acting up? I thought these things would last for at least 5-6 years 😅

[Aleks @abobic_]

@Suupercharged I like A conceptually but yeah B is easier to look through. Although one could make the argument that A might be more practical if you have lots of horizontal pics …

@jsulpis fantastic work 👏

@alenka_gucek Hey thanks for the answer! The thing is I’m trying to find a lightweight solution for extracting the metadata from a PDF document. Grobid works great but is super heavy and does way more than I need 😅

[Aleks @abobic_]

#machineLearning friends any ideas what models I could use to extract titles and authors from #scientificPapers (I’d like to embed this into an electron app so Grobid is not an option)? I need a small well performing model for this 🤔

After 3.5 years at @CERN and @tugraz @tugraz_csbme @CoDiSLabGraz, I'm delighted to say I've completed my #PhD 🙂 Grateful for all the incredible people and unforgettable experiences along the way. Time for the next chapter! 🚀 #phdchat #phdlife #AcademicChatter

I actually hated the idea of my tabs getting auto-deleted by @arcinternet but now I realize I didn't even notice they were gone. Well played ... well played 👏

@chih98 Hi Marko I sent you a PM :)

[Aleks @abobic_]

@GrammarlyHelp Hi thanks for replying! The thing is I need the academic setting but would need the text to be “wordy” for some occasions! Anyway thanks for considering my suggestion and keep up the great work 👏

[Aleks @abobic_]

Devoted user of @Grammarly for quite some time and loving the tool. But it needs to chill with trying to make everything as short and concise as possible. A cool feature I'd like to see is the possibility to prefer "wordy" sentences sometimes. 🤔
