@breyana

Welcome back.

The trick here is following.

Following is the algorithm.

Quick method is make a post using hashtags that define some basic interests, then _after _posting your "Hi I'm interested in #flowers #tables #voting" -CLICK on each hashtag and in the new column, FOLLOW each hashtag.

Anyone that posts with them will show up in your home feed.

Follow the folks who use the tag well, follow their best followers, follow people who they follow.

round the circle grows.

@gvwilson I have periodically tried to extract tables from PDFs using whatever tech is current, including LLMs (but not the latest models).

So far mixed results on arxiv.org papers.

I'll be interested to know how well docling does.

So will Peter Murray-Rust who has wrestled heroically with this ridiculous problem.
