How to mount a VirtualBox shared folder when the Guest OS boots

Problem

While using VirtualBox's Guest Additions to mount shared folders provides a seamless way to mount shared folders, there are also disadvantages.

• Shared folders will always mount in /media/sf_(share name) unless specified using through vbox drivers in the guest OS
• Mounting does not happen at boot-time. Applications that require paths at boot will not be able to access the shared folder even after it is mounted - such as Docker.

Solution

Instead of relying on Guest Additions, if you have sudo permissions, shared folders can be mounted at boot-time using fstab. Using this approach allows

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:
