Mutt + isync mbsync + gmail + multiple accounts.

Mutt + isync multiple accounts Unfinished

This is the setup that I use for mutt, I have two google domain account (read as gmail) and an institution where I work and study account. This means I have two gmail accounts and one outlook 365 account that i want to sync and read via mutt.

I want to store all my email locally as I travel a lot and will be in countries without easy internet access. For this I use mbsync (iSync). As it can handle multiple account types easily and efficently.

The setup works this way

[Remote Mail Servers] <= mbsync => [Local Mail Folders]

Kotlin Nullable can behave like a monad
/**
* A Gist proving that Kotlin's nullable type can be made into a monad without wrapping into another
* object and satisfy the Monadic laws
*
* Kotlin has comprehensive null safety built into the language enforced at compile time, using its
* nullable type.
*
* Its language structure makes dealing with nullable values simple and succinct. Unlike other language
* monadic constructs such as Option (scala), Optional(Java8+) and Maybe(Haskell), it is enforced at
* compile time and is compatible with existing non monad aware API (for example,

Using Python 3.x and Google Cloud Vision API to OCR scanned documents to extract structured data

Using Python 3 + Google Cloud Vision API's OCR to extract text from photos and scanned documents

Just a quickie test in Python 3 (using Requests) to see if Google Cloud Vision can be used to effectively OCR a scanned data table and preserve its structure, in the way that products such as ABBYY FineReader can OCR an image and provide Excel-ready output.

The short answer: No. While Cloud Vision provides bounding polygon coordinates in its output, it doesn't provide it at the word or region level, which would be needed to then calculate the data delimiters.

On the other hand, the OCR quality is pretty good, if you just need to identify text anywhere in an image, without regards to its physical coordinates. I've included two examples:
